A Library of Parent Functions
Objective: To identify the graphs
of several parent functions.
Example 1
• Write the linear function f for which f(1) = 3 and
f(4) = 0.
Writing a Linear Function
• Write the linear function f for which f(1) = 3 and
f(4) = 0.
• Remember, f(1) = 3 means when x = 1, y = 3
and f(4) = 0 means when x = 4, y = 0. We have
two points. We will treat this like a line and find
its equation.

Squaring Function
•
We have talked about the look of a 2nd degree
equation and we have called it a parabola.
Here are some characteristics.
1. The domain is all real numbers, and the range
is either (, max) or (min, ) .

2. If the coefficient of x 2 is positive, it opens up
and if the coefficient is negative, it opens
down.

The Square Root Function
• We will take a look at the square root function.
This is something that you should recognize and
we will talk about it in more depth later.
The Absolute Value Function
• This is another function that you should
recognize. We will do more with it later.
