• Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each representation of a function
Students achieving Level II: Satisfactory Academic Performance can
• Determine the domain and range of a function (linear, quadratic, square root, rational, exponential, and logarithmic) and its inverse
• Determine and consider the reasonableness of numerical solutions to equations, inequalities, and systems of equations and/or inequalities using a variety of methods
• Formulate equations, inequalities, and systems of equations and/or inequalities to solve problems • Generate multiple representations of a function and use them to determine attributes of the function • Describe and use the relationship between an algebraic and geometric representation of a quadratic function or relation,
including conic sections • Analyze the effects of parameter changes on functional relationships (linear, quadratic, square root, rational,
exponential, and logarithmic) • Analyze situations modeled by linear, quadratic, square root, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions
Students achieving Level I: Unsatisfactory Academic Performance can
• Determine the domain and range of a function (linear, quadratic, square root, rational, exponential, and logarithmic) represented by a table or a graph
• Find specific function values using algebraic and graphical methods • Generate a graph or a table of a function given in algebraic form • Describe the effects of parameter changes on linear, quadratic, and exponential functions
