M10: Linear, Exponential, and Quadratic Models

Question 1

What is the equations for the LINEAR, ABSOLUTE VALUE, and PARABOLA ?

Answer 1

- y = x
This is the Parent Graph for a line
- y= +- a/b |x-h| + k
This is the Graphing equation for Absolute value
-

Question 2

Does this problem have a common difference?
Here’s an example:
x 2 4 6 8
y 7 8 4 8

Answer 2

Yes. x adds by two while y subtracts,one, and again by four adding four

Question 3

What is the Exponential equation?

Answer 3

y = a(b)^x
a = coefficient
b= base
x= exponent

Question 4

Determine if this is a linear or exponential graph?

If the graphed line turns into a curvy shape, it is exponential.

Answer 4

x f (x) = 2^x
 x ,   y
-1 , 0.5
0 , 1
1  , 2
2 , 4

Question 5

What axis of values does domain refer to?

Answer 5

The x axis

Question 6

What axis of values does range refer to?

Answer 6

The y axis

Question 7

What are the two equations in order to graph a parabola? Hint: Vertex Form, Standard form

Answer 7

vertex form: y = a(x-h)2 + k

standard form: y=ax^2 + bx + c
