Strand: FUNCTIONS - Interpret Functions (F.IF)

Interpret quadratic functions that arise in applications in terms of a context (Standards F.IF.4-6). Analyze functions using different representations (Standards F.IF.7-9).

Standard F.IF.5

Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. Focus on quadratic functions; compare with linear and exponential functions. For example, if the function h(n) gives the number of person-hours it takes to assemble n engines in a factory, then the positive integers would be an appropriate domain for the function.^★

• FUNCTIONS - Interpret Functions (F.IF) - Sec Math II Core Guide
  The Utah State Board of Education (USBE) and educators around the state of Utah developed these guides for the Secondary Mathematics II - Interpret Functions (F.IF).
• GeoGebra
  GeoGebra is dynamic online geometry software. Constructions can be made with points, vectors, segments, lines, polygons, conic sections, inequalities, implicit polynomials and functions. All of them can be changed dynamically afterwards.
• Introduction to the Materials (Math 2)
  Introduction to the Materials in the Mathematics Two of the The MVP classroom experience begins by confronting students with an engaging task and then invites them to grapple with solving it. As students ideas emerge, take form, and are shared, the teacher orchestrates the student discussions and explorations towards a focused mathematical goal. As conjectures are made and explored, they evolve into mathematical concepts that the community of learners begins to embrace as effective strategies for analyzing and solving problems.
• Module 4: More Functions, More Features - Student Edition (Math 2)
  The Mathematics Vision Project, Secondary Math Two Module 4, More Functions, More Features, shifts focus to consider piecewise functions, absolute value functions, and inverse functions. Understanding of piecewise functions is built from students understanding of graphs and the stories that they can tell. Students learn to write functions for contexts in which rates change, making a piecewise function.
