Test Wednesday 9/28

This first test will cover linear functions and general function concepts. The relevant sections in your textbook are 1.1–1.3 and 2.3–2.6. Also look at your notes and the sheets of extra problems. Here’s a more detailed topic outline:

• Linear functions (1.1–1.3), especially point-slope form (see 9/13 handout or textbook p. 22).
  
• Function concept and its various representations — input/output, f(x) formula, table, graph (2.3).
  
• Functions defined using piecewise formulas (part of 2.6).
  
• Function operations (2.4; 9/20 extra problem handout).
  
• Inverses of functions (2.5; 9/23 notes handout; 9/26 extra problem handout).
  

Because the calculators ordered through school have not yet arrived, this will be a no-calculator test.
