Section 1.3 More on Functions and Their Graphs Math 112 Section 1.3 A function is said to be increasing on an interval if, for all a and b in the interval, a > b implies f(a) > f(b). Or simply put, increasing means up, decreasing means down, and constant means level. Increasing: (4 , 1) (4 , ) Decreasing: ( , 4) Constant: (1 , 4) Relative Minimum: 2 The intervals describing where functions increase, decrease, or are constant, use x-coordinates and not the y-coordinates. Find where the graph is increasing? Where is it decreasing? Where is it constant? Example y x Example y Find where the graph is increasing? Where is it decreasing? Where is it constant? x Relative Maxima And Relative Minima Where are the relative minimums? Where are the relative maximums? Example Why are the maximums and minimums called relative or local? y x Even and Odd Functions and Symmetry Math 112 A graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis if for any point (x , y) on the graph, the point (x , y) is also on the graph. (x , y) (x , y) Math 112 Section 1.7 A graph is symmetric with respect to the origin if for any point (x , y) on the graph, the point (x , y) is also on the graph. (x , y) (x , y) Math 112 Section 1.7 If the graph of a function f is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, (that is, f(x) = f(x)), then f(x) is an even function. If the graph of a function f is symmetric with respect to the origin, (that is, f(x) = f(x)), then f(x) is an odd function.

Many cellular phone plans can be represented with piecewise functions. See the piecewise function below: A cellular phone company offers the following plan: $20 per month buys 60 minutes Additional time costs $0.40 per minute.
