What do the sections of a distance time graph mean? Going Up Steeply: The distance is changing quickly: Going fast forward: Going Up Slowly The distance is changing slowly: Going slowly forward: Horizontal: The distance isnt changing: Stopped: Going Down: The distance from the start is decreasing: Going back towards the start: Under the axis: The distance is negative: Going behind the start:

Describe the situation shown by this graph:

Standard Axis for Graphing

Plotting points on graphs


Coordinate pairs are written as (x , y).

Plot the following points (2,3) (2,-3) (-3,-4) (-4,5)

Quadrants
The top right corner of the graph is quadrant I Moving anticlockwise they are numbered II, III, IV.
Which quadrant is point (-2,-3) in?

Relations and Functions.


A relation is a set of ordered pairs that relate an input to an output A function is a relation where every input has exactly one output Is this example a relation or a function?

x y 2 3 3 7 5 -6 2 3 5 -6

quadrant III
Which quadrant is point (1,-5) in?

quadrant IV
Which quadrant is point (2,4) in?

Each time when x has a value of 2 there is the same value for y. Each time when x has a value of 5 there is the same value for y It is a function.

quadrant I
Which quadrant is point (-3,4) in?

quadrant II

See page 583 of your textbook

Is this example a function?

x y 3 1 4 5 3 2 5 6 7 7
One time when x has a value of 3 the value for y is 1. Another time when x has a value of 3 the value for y is 2 No it is not a function because there are two outputs for one input.

Is this example a function?

Is this a function?

Imagine a vertical line and move it across perpendicular to the x-axis so that you are looking at different x-values Imagine a vertical line and move it across perpendicular to the x-axis so that you are looking at different x-values The vertical line test shows that every input has only one output so it is a function It is not a function because the vertical line test shows that there is more than one output for an input

Matching Coordinate pairs with equations.


Is the point 2,1 on the line with an equation y 3x 5

The values of a point are (x,y) so point 2,1 tells us x 2 and y 1

Put those values into the equation


y 3x 5 1 3 2 5

This is true so the point is on the line.


Is the point -3,2 on the line with an equation y 2x 5

1 6 5

The values of a point are (x,y) so point -3,2 tells us x 3 and y 2

Put those values into the equation


y 2x 5 2 2 3 5 2 6 5

This is not true so the point is not on the line.

Drawing a graph from a data table.


Draw the graph for this data. x -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 y -7 -5 -3 -1 1 3 5

Draw the graph of y 1 x 1 2


To draw a straight line you only need to know two points but we normally do three points as a way to check. Choose three x-values that make the calculations easy

1. Choose scales for your axis. 2. Go to the x-value on the horizontal axis then go up or down for the y-value and mark the point.

x -4 0 4

y -1 1 3

Mark the points on the graph and draw the line

Type of Functions. There are 3 types of functions you need to be able to recognise from graphs and data tables Linear functions. An example is y=2x-1 Fill in the data table. Do the graph on paper Use your calculator to do the graph.

x -2 -1 0 1 2

y -5 -3 -1 1 5

Quadratic functions. An example is y= x2-1 Fill in the data table. Do the graph on paper Use your calculator to do the graph.

x -2 -1 0 1 2

y 3 0 -1 0 3

Use your calculator to explore the shapes of the different functions.

Exponential functions. An example is y= 2x-1 Fill in the data table. Do the graph on paper Use your calculator to do the graph.

Representations of Functions. Functions can be represented as descriptions, data tables, graphs or equations. In this case you are given the description and need to do the data table and graph.

Make a data table and graph from this description. # of DVDs 0 10 20 30 40 Cost (php)

In this case you are given the graph and you need to create the data table and make a description that fits the graph. Time (secs) 0 Depth (cm) 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 5
