and the G functions?

Warm-up
Without looking back at your notes, define domain and range in
your own words.
Using your definitions, what is the domain and range of the
following graph? Assume that it doesn’t continue past this picture.
Warm-up
For the following graph, find domain, range,
maximum, minimum, zeros (roots), y-intercepts,
intervals of increase and decrease, and the end
behavior.
What is a function family?
A function family is a group of functions that all share
the same characteristics. For example, all lines share
the characteristics that they have a domain and range
of all real numbers, they are continuous, and they have
a constant rate of change.
Important Definitions
X-intercepts/roots – any location where the value (output)
of the equation is equal to 0. In a graph, this is where the
graph crosses the x-axis
Y-intercepts – when the value of x = 0, we find our yintercept. In a graph, this is where the graph crosses the yaxis.
Domain – all possible x-values
Range – all possible y-values
Maximum – the ordered pair of the highest point on the
graph
Minimum – the ordered pair of the lowest point on the
graph
Important Definitions
Increasing intervals – the x-values of the graph
between which the graph is going UP.
Decreasing intervals – the x-values of the graph
between which the graph is going DOWN.
Constant interval – the x-values of the graph between
which the graph is a STRAIGHT LINE.
End Behavior – what is happening when the x-values
are becoming more negative or more positive out of
the graph.

end behavior of each of the following?

6 Function Families
Linear: y = x
Quadratic: y = x2
Cubic: y = x3
Absolute Value: y = |x|
Square root: y = √x
Rational: y = 1/x
Linear Functions
Characteristics of a linear function
Of the form y = x
Domain: all real numbers
Range: all real numbers
Will have one root (x-intercept) and one y-intercept
Has no maximum or minimum value
Entire function is increasing
End behavior in opposite directions
Graph of Linear Function
Quadratic Functions
Characteristics of a quadratic function (parabola)
Of the form y = x2
Domain: all real numbers
Range: y ≥ 0 for parent graph.
Minimum of 0 at the vertex in the parent graph.
Can have 0, 1, or 2 roots (x-intercepts) and 1 y-intercept.
Has 1 root in the parent graph – the vertex.
End behavior in the same direction, up.
Interval of decrease x < 0; Interval of increase x > 0
Graph of Quadratic Function
Cubic Functions
Characteristics of a cubic function
Of the form y = x3
Domain: all real numbers
Range: all real numbers
Will have neither a minimum nor a maximum value.
Has 1 x-intercept (root) and 1 y-intercept: the origin
(0,0)
End behavior in opposite directions: to negative infinity
as x approaches negative infinity; to positive infinity as x
approaches positive infinity
Interval of increase: all real numbers or (-∞, ∞)
Graph of Cubic Function
Absolute Value Functions
Characteristics of an absolute value function
Of the form y = |x|
Domain: all real numbers
Range: y ≥ 0 for parent graph.
Will have a minimum at the vertex: (0, 0)
Has 1 root (x-intercept) and 1 y-intercept: (0, 0)
End behavior in the same direction, up.
Interval of decrease: x < 0; Interval of increase: x > 0
Graph of Absolute Value Function
Square root Functions
Characteristics of an absolute value function
Of the form y = √x
Domain: x ≥ 0 for the parent graph.
Range: y ≥ 0 for parent graph.
Minimum value at the vertex: (0, 0)
1 root (x-intercepts) and 1 y-intercept: (0, 0)
End behavior to positive infinity.
Interval of increase: x > 0 or [0, ∞)
Graph of Square Root Function
Rational Functions
Characteristics of a rational function
Of the form y = 1/x
Domain: x ≠ 0 for the parent graph.
Range: y ≠ 0 for parent graph.
Will have neither a maximum nor a minimum
Has neither a root (x-intercept) nor a y-intercept in the
original function. Instead, has a vertical asymptote that
on the y-axis and a horizontal asymptote on the x-axis.
End behavior to 0 on both sides of the graph.
Interval of decrease: all real numbers except x ≠ 0 or
(-∞, 0) U (0,∞)
Graph of Rational Function
Transformations
What happens when you add or subtract a
constant from a parent function?
The function shifts up or down the amount of
your constant.
What happens when you make a parent
function negative?
The function is reflected across the x-axis.

y = x2
y = x2 - 4
