DO-NOW #36: Answer the following
questions:
Topic: Functions
Main Idea: Linear and Nonlinear Functions
Aim:
RECALL
The table shows the approximate height and
horizontal distance traveled by a football kicked at
an angle of 30° with an initial velocity of 30 yards
per second.
1) Did the football travel the same height each halfsecond? Justify your answer.
2) Did the football travel the same length each halfsecond? Justify your answer.
3) Graph the ordered pairs (time, height) and (time,
length) on separate grids. Connect the points with a
straight line or smooth curve. Then compare the
graphs.
NOTES
Statement: In previous lessons, you learned that linear functions have graphs that are straight lines. This is because
the rate of change (slope) between any two data points is a constant. Nonlinear functions are functions whose rates of
change are not constant. Therefore, their graphs are not straight lines,
Determine whether
each table
represents a linear
or nonlinear
function. Explain.
Drill: Answer the following questions. Show work.
