A function can only have one output per input. For an xy function, this means that for every x, there can only be one y. If you do the vertical line test and it crosses a line more then once, then that means that the graph has more than one y value for a single x value, meaning it is not a function.

1 is in picture above.

$average \: rate = \frac{f(4) - f(1)}{4 - ( - 1)} = \frac{5}{4 - ( - 1)} = 1$

5. Parts A and B are true.

$average \: rate = \frac{f(0) - f( - 10)}{0 - ( - 10)} = \frac{( - 6) - 184}{0 - ( - 10)} = \frac{ - 190}{10} = - 19$

7. The axis symmetry equation of

$y = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$

$x = \frac{ - b}{2a}$

So it would be x=-3/4

$y = {(x - 6)}^{2} + 10$

What is the equation of the graph?

Answer:

In the sciences, many times it is necessary to be able to interpret graphs as well as be able to graph certain equations. Often data is available in a graphical format and you must be able to extract the necessary information. Other times, it may be helpful to plot an equation in order to fully understand a problem. However, graphing can be difficult for some students. The format in this section is a little different. The first part will be simply showing what some special equations look like in graphical form and the second part will be a series of questions to help you understand graphs better.
