Use a graphic calculator to evaluate algebraic expressions and functions given a value, and to create a graph given a function.
Step 4: Press the Diamond key and then F3 to graph the function. Step 5: Press F3 for Trace. Step 6: Press 0 and then press ENTER to see the y-value for x = 0. In this case, it will return nothing—x is undefined at this point. Step 7: Repeat step 6, entering smaller incre...
So by definition, nonlinear functions produce graphs that aren’t a straight line. Linear function (red) and two nonlinear functions: exponential (blue) and polynomial (green). Graph created with Desmos.com. Nonlinear Function vs. Linear Function: Steps In order to figure out if your function ...
When we think about waves, orbits, circular motion, or really anything that repeats, the time that it takes to do one cycle is called a period. Examine the sine wave depicted below. Made using Desmos At every interval of 1 (0−1, 1−2, 2−3, etc), the graph of the sine ...
Anabsolute value functionhas a unique “V” shape when plotted on a graph. This is due to the fact that the absolute value of a negative number makes that number positive. The absolute value parent function. The absolute value parent function is written as: f(x) = │x│ where: ...
Step 6:Check your work. You could use a graphing calculator: I used the one atDesmos.comto create the graphs here. If you can’t use a graphing calculator, throw in a random x-value as an input, like x = 9.2 or x = 7.5. If you have drawn your graph correctly, your new point...

Step 3:Evaluate bnto see if it decreasing. One way to do this is to graph the function (I usedDesmos.com): Clearly, the function (and therefore the sequence) is decreasing and thelimitas n→∞ is 0. Therefore, this series converges. ...
Graph of f(x) = (2/π) sin-1[sin (π x)] created on Desmos.com Creating a Triangle Wave with Piecewise Functions Onerelatively simple way to create a graphof the triangle wave function is to construct a series ofpiecewise functions. In other words, each individual “tooth” can be bu...
