Outcomes

AI-F.IF.5

Determine the domain of a function from its graph and, where applicable, identify the appropriate domain for a function in context.

AI-F.BF.3a

Using f(x) + k, k f(x), and f(x + k): i) identify the effect on the graph when replacing f(x) by f(x) + k, k f(x), and f(x + k) for specific values of k (both positive and negative); ii) find the value of k given the graphs, iii) write a new function using the value of k; and iv) use technology to experiment with cases and explore the effects on the graph.
