A constant function is just a horizontal line.
To graph the function y=5 or f(x)=5, just draw a horizontal line at y=5 and x=0.

The graph of a linear function is a line with a constant slope. The graph of an exponential function is a curve with a non-constant slope. The slope of a given curve at a specified point is the derivative evaluated at that point.
Any equation where variable a = some multiple of variable b2 + constant will graph a parabola.
A formula or graph are two ways to describe a math function. How a math function is described depends on the domain of the function or the complexity of the function.
The straight line in the graph goes 'uphill' from left to right
k is the constant of variation and is the gradient (slope) of the relevant graph.
A line. The derivative of a function is its slope. If the slope is a constant then the graph is a line.
The graph of a linear function is a line with a constant slope. The graph of an exponential function is a curve with a non-constant slope. The slope of a given curve at a specified point is the derivative evaluated at that point.
Changing the constant in a function will shift the graph vertically but will not change the shape of the graph. For example, in a linear function, changing the constant term will only move the line up or down. In a quadratic function, changing the constant term will shift the parabola up or down.
To determine the phase constant from a graph, identify the horizontal shift of the graph compared to the original function. The phase constant is the amount the graph is shifted horizontally.
If velocity is constant, the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph will be a straight line. The slope of this line will represent the constant velocity of the object.
It means that the function is constant.
· whether it is linear, quadratic or exponential · whether it has an upper or lower bound · whether it has a minimum or a maximum value · whether it is constant, decreasing or increasing

The straight line in the graph goes 'uphill' from left to right
One of the transformations performed on a function is translating it vertically by adding or subtracting a constant value to all y-values. This shifts the graph up or down relative to the original function without changing its shape.
k is the constant of variation and is the gradient (slope) of the relevant graph.
