Resource Locker Eplore Representing an Interval on a Number Line An interval is a part of a number line without an breaks. A finite interval has two endpoints, which ma or ma not be included in the interval. An infinite interval is unbounded at one or both ends. Suppose an interval consists of all real numbers greater than or equal to 1. You can use the inequalit 1 to represent the interval. You can also use set notation and interval notation, as shown in the table. Description of Interval Tpe of Interval Inequalit Set Notation Interval notation All real numbers from a to b, including a and b Finite a b { a b} [a, b] All real numbers greater than a Infinite > a { > a} (a, + ) All real numbers less than or equal to a Infinite a { a} (, a] For set notation, the vertical bar means such that, so ou read { 1} as the set of real numbers such that is greater than or equal to 1. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan For interval notation, do the following: Use a square bracket to indicate that an interval includes an endpoint and a parenthesis to indicate that an interval doesn t include an endpoint. For an interval that is unbounded at its positive end, use the smbol for positive infinit, +. For an interval that unbounded at its negative end, use the smbol for negative infinit, -. Alwas use a parenthesis with positive or negative infinit. So, ou can write the interval 1 as [1, + ).

What numbers are in this interval?. What do the intervals [, 5], [, 5), and (, 5) have in common? What makes them different? 3. Discussion The smbol represents the union of two sets. What do ou think the notation (-, ) (, + ) represents? Eplain 1 Identifing a Function s Domain, Range and End Behavior from its Graph Recall that the domain of a function f is the set of input values, and the range is the set of output values ƒ(). The end behavior of a function describes what happens to the ƒ()-values as the -values either increase without bound (approach positive infinit) or decrease without bound (approach negative infinit). For instance, consider the graph of a linear function shown. From the graph, ou can make the following observations Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan - Module 1 6 Lesson 1

3 Statement of End Behavior As the -values increase without bound, the f()-values also increase without bound. As the -values decrease without bound, the f()-values also decrease without bound. Smbolic Form of Statement As +, f() +. As -, f() -. Eample 1 Write the domain and the range of the function as an inequalit, using set notation, and using interval notation. Also describe the end behavior of the function. A The graph of the quadratic function f() = is shown.

So, wh can t ou sa that f() as? Your Turn Write the domain and the range of the function as an inequalit, using set notation, and using interval notation. Also describe the end behavior of the function. 6. The graph of the quadratic function ƒ() = is shown Eplain Graphing a Linear Function on a Restricted Domain Unless otherwise stated, a function is assumed to have a domain consisting of all real numbers for which the function is defined. Man functions such as linear, quadratic, and eponential functions are defined for all real numbers, so their domain, when written in interval notation, is (-, + ). Another wa to write the set of real numbers is R. - Sometimes a function ma have a restricted domain. If the rule for a function and its restricted domain are given, ou can draw its graph and then identif its range. Eample For the given function and domain, draw the graph and identif the range using the same notation as the given domain. A ƒ() = 3 + with domain [-, ] Since ƒ() = 3 + is a linear function, the graph is a line segment with endpoints at (-, ƒ(-)), or (-, -1), and (, ƒ()), or (, 5). The endpoints are included in the graph. The range is [-1, 5] Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan Module 1 8 Lesson 1

5 B ƒ() = - - with domain { > -3} Since ƒ() = - - is a linear function, the graph is a ra with its endpoint at (-3, ƒ(-3)), or. The endpoint included in the graph. The range is Reflect 7. In Part A, how does the graph change if the domain is (-, ) instead of [-, ]? 8. In Part B, what is the end behavior as increases without bound? Wh can t ou talk about the end behavior as decreases without bound? Your Turn For the given function and domain, draw the graph and identif the range using the same notation as the given domain. 9. ƒ() = - 1_ + with domain -6 < 1. f() = _ -1 with domain (, 3] Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan Module 1 9 Lesson 1

6 Eplain 3 Modeling with a Linear Function Recall that when a real-world situation involves a constant rate of change, a linear function is a reasonable model for the situation. The situation ma require restricting the function s domain. Eample 3 Write a function that models the given situation. Determine a domain from the situation, graph the function using that domain, and identif the range. A Joce jogs at a rate of 1 mile ever 1 minutes for a total of minutes. (Use inequalities for the domain and range of the function that models this situation.) Joce s jogging rate is.1 mi/min. Her jogging distance d (in miles) at an time t (in minutes) is modeled b d(t) =.1t. Since she jogs for minutes, the domain is restricted to the interval t. d Distance (mi) Time (min) t The range is d. B A candle 6 inches high burns at a rate of 1 inch ever hours for 5 hours. (Use interval notation for the domain and range of the function that models this situation.) The candle s burning rate is The candle s height h (in inches) at an time in./h. t (in hours) is modeled b h(t) =. Since the candle burns for 5 hours, the domain is restricted to the interval,.

13 Name Class Date 1. Characteristics of Function Graphs Essential Question: What are some of the attributes of a function, and how are the related to the function s graph? Resource Locker Eplore Identifing Attributes of a Function from Its Graph You can identif several attributes of a function b analzing its graph. For instance, for the graph shown, ou can see that the function s domain is { 11} and its range is { 1 1}. Use the graph to eplore the function s other attributes. A The values of the function on the interval { 1 < < 3} are positive/negative B The values of the function on the interval { 8 < < 9} are positive/negative. A function is increasing on an interval if ƒ( 1 ) < ƒ( ) when 1 < for an -values 1 and from the interval. The graph of a function that is increasing on an interval rises from left to right on that interval. Similarl, a function is decreasing on an interval if ƒ( 1 ) > ƒ( ) when 1 < for an -values 1 and from the interval. The graph of a function that is decreasing on an interval falls from left to right on that interval. C D The given function is increasing/decreasing on the interval { }. The given function is increasing/decreasing on the interval { 6}. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan For the two points ( 1, ƒ( 1 )) and (, ƒ( )) on the graph of a function, the average rate of change of the function is the ratio of the change in the function values, ƒ( ) - ƒ( 1 ), to the change in the -values, - 1. For a linear function, the rate of change is constant and represents the slope of the function s graph. E What is the given function s average rate of change on the interval { }? A function ma change from increasing to decreasing or from decreasing to increasing at turning points. The value of ƒ() at a point where a function changes from increasing to decreasing is a maimum value. A maimum value occurs at a point that appears higher than all nearb points on the graph of the function. Similarl, the value of ƒ() at a point where a function changes from decreasing to increasing is a minimum value. A minimum value occurs at a point that appears lower than all nearb points on the graph of the function. If the graph of a function has an endpoint, the value of ƒ() at that point is considered a maimum or minimum value of the function if the point is higher or lower, respectivel, than all nearb points. F At how man points does the given function change from increasing to decreasing? Module 1 17 Lesson

14 What is the function s value at these points? At how man points does the given function change from decreasing to increasing? What is the function s value at these points? A zero of a function is a value of for which ƒ() =. On a graph of the function, the zeros are the -intercepts. How man -intercepts does the given function s graph have? Identif the zeros of the function. Reflect 1. Discussion Identif three different intervals that have the same average rate of change, and state what the rate of change is.. Discussion If a function is increasing on an interval { a b}, what can ou sa about its average rate of change on the interval? Eplain. Eplain 1 Sketching a Function s Graph from a Verbal Description B understanding the attributes of a function, ou can sketch a graph from a verbal description. Eample 1 A Sketch a graph of the following verbal descriptions. Lme disease is a bacterial infection transmitted to humans b ticks. When an infected tick bites a human, the probabilit of transmission is a function of the time since the tick attached itself to the skin. During the first hours, the probabilit is %. During the net three -hour periods, the rate of change in the probabilit is alwas positive, but it is much greater for the middle period than the other two periods. After 96 hours, the probabilit is almost 1%. Sketch a graph of the function for the probabilit of transmission. Identif the aes and scales. The -ais will be time (in hours) and will run from to at least 96. The -ais will be the probabilit of infection (as a percent) from to 1.

15 Identif ke intervals. The intervals are in increments of hours: to, to 8, 8 to 7, 7 to 96, and 96 to 1. Sketch the graph of the function. Draw a horizontal segment at = for the first -hour interval. The function increases over the net three -hour intervals with the middle interval having the greatest increase (the steepest slope). After 96 hours, the graph is nearl horizontal at 1%. B The incidence of a disease is the rate at which a disease occurs in a population. It is calculated b dividing the number of new cases of a disease in a given time period (tpicall a ear) b the size of the population. To avoid small decimal numbers, the rate is often epressed in terms of a large number of people rather than a single person. For instance, the incidence of measles in the United States in 197 was about 1 cases per 1, people. From 197 to 198, there were drastic fluctuations in the incidence of measles in the United States. In 1975, there was a slight increase in incidence from 197. The net two ears saw a substantial increase in the incidence, which reached a maimum in 1977 of about 6 cases per 1, people. From 1977 to 1979, the incidence fell to about 5 cases per 1, people. The incidence fell much faster from 1977 to 1978 than from 1978 to Finall, from 1979 to 198, the incidence staed about the same. Sketch a graph of the function for the incidence of measles. Identif the aes and scales. The -ais will represent time given b ears and will run from to Incidence (cases per 1, people) Incidence of Measles in the U.S Time (ears since 197).

Sketch a graph of the function. Strawberries on Shelves Time since opening (h) Cartons of strawberries1 Eplain Modeling with a Linear Function When given a set of paired data, ou can use a scatter plot to see whether the data show a linear trend. If so, ou can use a graphing calculator to perform linear regression and obtain a linear function that models the data. You should treat the least and greatest -values of the data as the boundaries of the domain of the linear model. When ou perform linear regression, a graphing calculator will report the value of the correlation coefficient r. This variable can have a value from -1 to 1. It measures the direction and strength of the relationship between the variables and. If the value of r is negative, the -values tend to decrease as the -values increase. If the value of r is positive, the -values tend to increase as the -values increase. The more linear the relationship between and is, the closer the value of r is to -1 or 1 (or the closer the value of r is to 1). You can use the linear model to make predictions and decisions based on the data. Making a prediction within the domain of the linear model is called interpolation. Making a prediction outside the domain is called etrapolation. Eample Perform a linear regression for the given situation and make predictions. A A photographer hiked through the Grand Canon. Each da she stored photos on a memor card for her digital camera. When she returned from the trip, she deleted some photos from each memor card, saving onl the best. The table shows the number of photos she kept from all those stored on each memor card. Use a graphing calculator to create a scatter plot of the data, find a linear regression model, and graph the model. Then use the model to predict the number of photos the photographer will keep if she takes 15 photos. Grand Canon Photos Photos Taken Photos Kept Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan Module 1 Lesson

17 Step 1: Create a scatter plot of the data. Let represent the number of photos taken, and let represent the number of photos kept. Use a viewing window that shows -values from 1 to and -values from to 6. Notice that the trend in the data appears to be roughl linear, with -values generall increasing as -values increase. Step : Perform linear regression. Write the linear model and its domain. The linear regression model is = Its domain is { }. Step 3: Graph the model along with the data to obtain a visual check on the goodness of fit. Notice that one of the data points is much farther from the line than the other data points are. The value of the correlation coefficient r would be closer to 1 without this data point. Step : Predict the number of photos this photographer will keep if she takes 15 photos. Evaluate the linear function when = 15: =.33(15) So, she will keep about 38 photos if she takes 15 photos.
