Outcomes

In this lesson you will learn

  • to use the graphs of various types of functions to model the features of an illustration of your choice

By the end of this section students will be able to:

  • describe the relationships between arithmetic operations and operations on rational algebraic expressions and equations
  • analyze relations, functions, and their graphs
  • use tables and graphs as tools to interpret expressions
  • demonstrate an understanding for asymptotic behaviour
  • analyze and solve polynomial, rational, irrational, absolute value, and trigonometric equations
  • explore and describe the connections between continuity, limits and functions
  • demonstrate an intuitive understanding of the concept of limit
