1.5 Parent Functions
chapter 1
Constant Function
- f(x)= c
- To help you remember this the c stands for constant
Quadratic Function
- f(x)=x to the second power
- To help you remember this function always look to see if their is a 2 over the x
Cubic Function
- f(x)=x to the third power
- To help you remember this function always look to see if their is a 3 over the x
Square Root Function
- f(x)= squrt x
- To help remember this always look to see if their is a radical over the x
Identity Function
- f(x)=x
- To help remember this always look to see if the function just equals x
Reciprocal Function
- f(x)=1/x
- To help remember this always look to see if it has a fraction
Absolute Value Function
- f(x)=|x|
- To help remember this always look to see if it has the absolute sign
