What else can I help you with?
How can you tell if a graph is a continuous function or a discrete function?
The graph of a continuous function will not have any 'breaks' or 'gaps' in it. You can draw it without lifting your pencil or pen. The graph of a discrete function will just be a set of lines.
What can you tell about the graph of a quadratic function from its standards form without any math?
The answer depends on what you mean by "without any math". Is deciding whether a number is positive or negative disallowed because the sign of a coefficient is a mathematical concept.
How do you tell if a graph is a function?
For a 2-dimensional graph if there is any value of x for which there are more than one values of the graph, then it is not a function. Equivalently, any vertical line can intersect the a function at most once.
How do you determine weather the graph represent a function?
The "vertical line test" will tell you if it is a function or not. The graph is not a function if it is possible to draw a vertical line through two points.
How can you tell by looking at the graph of a function that it is nonlinear?
A linear function would be represented by a straight line graph, so if it's not a straight line, it's nonlinear
What does the rule for a quadratic function tell you about how the graph of the function will look?
If the quadratic function is written as ax2 + bx + c then if a > 0 the function is cup shaped and if a < 0 it is cap shaped. (if a = 0 it is not a quadratic) if b2 > 4ac then the equation crosses the x-axis twice. if b2 = 4ac then the equation touches the x-axis (is a tangent to it). if b2 < 4ac then the equation does not cross the x-axis.
How can you tell if a graph is a sine function or a cosine function?
sine graph will be formed at origine of graph and cosine graph is find on y-axise
How do you tell if a quadratic function is minimum value or a maximum vale?
Standard notation for a quadratic function: y= ax2 + bx + c which forms a parabola, a is positive , minimum value (parabola opens upwards on an x-y graph) a is negative, maximum value (parabola opens downward) See related link.
How can you tell if a graph sHow is a function?
Test it by the vertical line test. That is, if a vertical line passes through the two points of the graph, this graph is not the graph of a function.
How can you tell if a graph is a continuous function or a discrete function?
The graph of a continuous function will not have any 'breaks' or 'gaps' in it. You can draw it without lifting your pencil or pen. The graph of a discrete function will just be a set of lines.
In the vertex form of a quadratic function y equals a the quantity of x-b squared plus c what does the b tell you about the graph?
The standard form of the quadratic function in (x - b)2 + c, has a vertex of (b, c). Thus, b is the units shifted to the right of the y-axis, and c is the units shifted above the x-axis.
How can you tell if a function is a function?
The vertical line test can be used to determine if a graph is a function. If two points in a graph are connected with the help of a vertical line, it is not a function. If it cannot be connected, it is a function.

When you can tell the graph of quadratic function concave upward or downward?
If the sign of the term involving x2 is positive then it is concave upward, provided everybody agrees what concave upwards means. Just like y=x2 is concave upwards.
What is the connection between slope in a linear function and the a coefficient in a quadratic?
The slope of a linear function is the coefficient of the x term. The sign of this number will determine if the line increases as x increases, or decreases as x increases (slopes up or down). The magnitude of the slope determines how steep the line is (how fast it increases).The coefficient of the x2 term in a quadratic function will tell you similar characteristics of the parabola. The sign will tell you if the parabola opens up or down. The magnitude of the coefficient tells you how steeply the graph changes.
