Bellwork was an exploration on the graph of Absoltue Value Functions.
During this period students learned how to translate, reflect, and stretch/shrink the graph of y=|x|. Students can now can create a graph if given the equation and write the equation if given the graph.
We also continued discussing Families of Function by going over the concept of Reflections and Rotations.
Hwk #4 is due tomorrow:
Practice Sheet Sec 2-5.

Bellwork reviewed expanding the product of two binomials and solving equations and inequalities.
The remainder of the period students were given the class syllabus. We then began discussing the different Families of Functions. Students were reminded about the definition of a Function and given examples of a relation that was a function and a relation that was not a function. Students began working on an activity to explore and discover the different families of functions.
