In this unit we’ll learn about the concept of a function and dive into how we can use functions. The skills include:
- Recognize that in a function each input has one unique output
- Determine whether a relation is a function using the vertical line test and a list of ordered pairs
- Use what we know about slope to determine if a function is linear and write its equation
- Graph nonlinear functions using a table
- Work through word problems involving linear functions
- Calculate the volume of a rectangular prism (review)
- Calculate the volume of a cylinder using 3.14 for pi and leaving in terms of pi
- Calculate the volume of a cone
- Calculate the volume of a sphere
- Solve real world volume problems involving cones, spheres and cylinders
