Question 3 – Vertical line test [2 pts]

xy-1123456-4-3-2-11234
Graph for question 3.

Does the graph represent a function? Use the vertical line test to explain.

Question 4 – Evaluate a function [2 pts]

Let \(f(x) = 2x^{2} – 3x + 1\). Find the values.

  1. \(f(-2)\) (1 point)
  2. \(f(3)\) (1 point)

  2. Find \(x\) when \(f(x) = 11\). (1 point)

Question 6 – Domain and range [2 pts]

Give the domain and range of \(\{(-1, 2), (0, 5), (1, 2), (4, -3)\}\).

Question 7 – Phone plan function [3 pts]

Priya pays a $15 setup fee plus $20 each month. Her total cost is \(P(m) = 20m + 15\) dollars after \(m\) months.

  1. Find \(P(6)\). (1 point)
  2. Find the number of months for which \(P(m) = 215\). (1 point)
  3. Describe a reasonable domain. (1 point)

Question 8 – Graph of a segment [3 pts]

xy-3-2-112345-2-1123456
Graph for question 8.

The graph shows a function.

  1. Give the domain. (1 point)
  2. Give the range. (1 point)
  3. Find the output for the input 1. (1 point)

Question 9 – Rule from a table [2 pts]

xf(x)13253749511
Table for question 9.

The table shows a linear function \(f\). Write a rule for \(f(x)\) and use it to find \(f(10)\).

Key facts behind this algebra 1 functions test

Key facts
  • A function assigns exactly one output to each input.
  • The domain is the set of inputs; the range is the set of outputs.
  • The vertical line test: a graph is a function if no vertical line meets it twice.
  • f(x) is read “f of x” and means the output when the input is x.
  • In context, the domain is limited to the inputs that make sense.

How to use this algebra 1 functions test

Time yourself: the test is designed for an average student in 45 minutes. Answer the questions you are sure of first, then come back to the longer ones and check your units.
