What you’ll learn
Connect algebraic information to a visual picture. Begin with position, distance, and midpoint, then use graphs and functions to describe how quantities relate.
- Read and plot ordered pairs, including points on an axis.
- Use distance and midpoint to describe a segment in the coordinate plane.
- Relate horizontal and vertical changes to the Pythagorean Theorem.
- Interpret a graph’s coordinates and units in the context of a situation.
- Sketch equations, use intercepts and symmetry, and model with lines and circles.
- Evaluate functions at numbers and expressions and find their domains and ranges.
- Describe zeros, increasing and decreasing intervals, and relative extrema.
- Interpret average rate of change and identify even and odd functions.
