|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Direct-variation function | a function with a formula of the form y = kx^n, with k not equalling 0 and n > 0.
🗑
|
||||
| constant of variation | y = kx^n, where k is a nonzero constant (called constant of variation)
🗑
|
||||
| Steps to solving variation functions | 1. Write an eqution that describes the variation.
2. Find the constant of variation.
3. Rewrite the variation function using the constant of variation.
4. Evaluate the function for the desired value of the independent variable
🗑

| inverse-variation function | a function with a formula of the form y = k/x^n, when k does not equal 0 and n > 0.
🗑
|

| The Fundamental Theorem of Variation | a. If y varies directly as x^n (That is, y = kx^n.), and x is multiplied by c, then y is multiplied by c^n.
b. If y varies inversely as x^n (That is, y = k/x^n.), and x is multiplied by a nonzero constant c, then y is divided by c^n.

| Are slope and rate of change the same thing? | Yes
🗑
|
||||
| What is the graph of equation y = kx? | A line
🗑
|
||||
| Does the graph of equation y = kx^2 lie on a strait line? | No, you can verify by finding slope between points
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| what is the domain and range of a parabola that opens up? | domain: all real numbers
range: nonnegative real numbers
🗑
|
||||
| what is the domain and range of a parabola that opens down? | domain: all real numbers
range: nonpositive real numbers
🗑
|
||||
| What form is the graph y = k/x? | A hyperbola
🗑
|
||||
| In what quadrants is the hyperbola in for the equation y = k/x when k > 0? | I and III
🗑
|
||||
| What quadrants is the hyperbola in for the equation y = k/x when k < 0? | II and IV
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| In what quadrants is the equation Y =k/x^2 for k>0 in and what is the domain and range? | I and II. domain=(x:x does not equal 0) range=(y: y>0)
🗑
|

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
