Test on Thursday, October 6h

Here are the topics for Thursday's test:


1.Linear equations:  using point-slope form to find equations of lines given:  slope and a point, two    
       points, line to be parallel to, line to be perpendicular to

2. Transformations of functions (powers, roots, absolute values, greatest integer) : translated, dilated,
      reflected over x-axis   NO GRAPHING CALCULATOR ALLOWED!

3. Domains and ranges of functions

4. Piece-defined functions

5. Polynomial functions:  zeros, max/mins, end-behavior, finding all zeros exactly using long division
     and quadratic formula

Unit 1 Test

EXPLANATION OF MY COLOR CODING:
GREEN:  problems I am least concerned about;  a small amount of review and most of you should do fine
RED:   problems that concern me;  you don't study up on these most of you are in trouble!!!
BLUE:  "intermediate" problems

1 problem: Plugging a number into a function involving [ ] (greatest integer function)
1 problem:   Finding the value(s) of x excluded from the domain of a root function
1 problem:  Finding the value(s) of x excluded from the domain of a function that is a fraction
2 problems:  Solving polynomial equations (and stating how many additional solutions not "visible") using technology
1 problem:  Solving a 1-variable second degree inequality using technology
3 problems:  Composition of functions -->  fog, gof, and f(f(f( )))
1 problem:  "Prove" that two functions are inverses using the definition of inverse fog = gof = x
2 problems:  Determine if functions are inverses (any method)
1 problem:  Graph a function's inverse, determine if the inverse is a function
1 problem:  Given a point, find the corresponding point symmetric to it with respect to the x-axis, y-axis, and origin.
1 problem:  Given a portion of a graph, complete it so that it has x-axis, y-axis, origin, and y = x symmetry
4 problems:  Determine if an equation exhibits x-axis, y-axis, or origin symmetry
3 problems:  Determine if a function is even, odd, or neither
1 problem:  Algebraic linear programming problem (constraints and function given)
1 problem:  "Set up" an everyday linear programming problem

Also - please be careful on the worksheet as not all horizontal asymptotes are necessarily indicated with dotted lines.  If it seems to "level out" before the arrow tip, assume it is an HA.
