Functions & Relationships

Students develop an understanding of and apply proportional relationships; grasping the concept of a function and using functions to describe quantitative relationships; students define, evaluate, and compare functions, and use them to model relationships between quantities. Students will learn function notation and develop the concepts of domain and range; they explore many examples of functions, including sequences; they interpret functions given graphically, numerically, symbolically, and verbally, translate between representations, and understand the limitations of various representations. They work with functions given by situations, graphs, tables, and formulas.
