Exit Slip Lesson 3 4/12/10

To compare and contrast two functions you use the first graph and table you created on spreadsheet (which is used mainly for graphing) and the formula you used and just make it the opposite sign if it is negative make the second functions positive if it was positive make it negative for example:
or
Then you drag down from the cell, creating column c which is the second line on the graph and you should have your number for Y2, edit graph rename it:compare and contrast two functions, make sure you label the y's with the function.

After, that you must make a table that includes Categories which will be your functions ,Highest degree term which is the highest term,Next degree term and Constant Term ( which is also known as the loswest term) on Google Docs. You also compare them by discussing how the graph changed do the go different ways, have the same turns. For my functions i only had the higest terms for example: and and 0 for the constant and next degree.

  1. One example of the second function to compare was the negative of the first function. However, there are other functions than just the negative functions that you can compare using the same method.
