Problem 1 YOU TRY - CHARACTERISTICS OF LINEAR FUNCTIONS
Given a function, f(x) = mx + b, respond to each of the following. Refer back to previous lessons as
needed.
a) The variable x represents the.
quantity.
b) f(x) represents the
quantity. f(x) is just another name for
with slope
c) The graph of f(x) is a
and
y-intercept
d)
On the graphing grid below, draw an INCREASING linear function. In this case, what can you say
about the slope of the line? m 0 (Your choices here are > or <)

e) On the graphing grid below, draw a DECREASING linear function. In this case, what can you say
about the slope of the line? m
0 (Your choices here are > or <)
f) The defining characteristic of a LINEAR FUNCTION is that the RATE OF CHANGE (also called the
SLOPE) is
We say, then, that LINEAR FUNCTIONS change in an ADDITIVE
way.
