Lesson 7-1: Functions, Domain & Range
Name ______________________________
Date ____________________________
Learning Goals:
 I can define a function.
 I can define and describe domain and range of any function given its graph or equation.
 I can identify the y-intercept and use the definition of function to explain why there can only be one
y-intercept.
 I can identify the x-intercept(s) and use the definition of function to explain why some functions have
more than one x-intercept.
 I can create a graph that matches the description and indicates all of the key features of the function.
Notes:

III. Answer the questions below about the functions in part I.
1. Give the name(s) of the function(s) which appear to be increasing over the entire domain.
How do you know?
2. Give the name(s) of the function(s) which appear to be decreasing over the entire domain.
How do you know?
3. Give the name(s) of the function(s) that appear to have a minimum or maximum value.
IV. Sketch possible graphs of functions given the following conditions:
1. x-intercepts at (-5, 0) and (4, 0)
y-intercept at (0, -3.5)
minimum value when x = -2.5
