Unit 5 - Graphing and Analyzing Linear and Exponential Functions
Learning Targets:
- I can sketch a linear graph based on key features (rate of change, intercepts).
- I can sketch an exponential graph based on key features (growth/decay rate, asymptotes, intercepts).
- I can sketch a graph given a linear function.
- I can sketch a graph given an exponential function.
- I can label key features of a graph (intercepts, intervals where function is positive or negative, intervals where function is increasing or decreasing, end behavior).
- I can interpret key parts of a graph in context. (Modeling)
- I can determine an appropriate domain.
- I can estimate the rate of change using a graph.
