CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSF.IF.C.7 Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases.*
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSF.IF.C.7.B Graph square root, cube root, and piecewise-defined functions, including step functions and absolute value functions.
Related Standards
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSF.IF.C.9 Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a graph of one quadratic function and an algebraic expression for another, say which has the larger maximum.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSF.BF.B.3 Identify the effect on the graph of replacing \(f(x)\) by \(f(x)+k\), \(kf(x)\), \(f(kx)\), and \(f(x+k)\) for specific values of \(k\) (both positive and negative); find the value of \(k\) given the graphs. Experiment with cases and illustrate an explanation of the effects on the graph using technology. Include recognizing even and odd functions from their graphs and algebraic expressions for them.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSF.IF.B.4 For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity.*
