Question

Matching Functions

Directions: On the next page are (5) graphs, (5) equations, (5) tables, and (5) unique properties. They are out of
order. Your performance task is to match the equation, table, and property to the correct graph.

Answer 1

Graph A → Equation A → Table B → Property D

Graph D → Equation B → Table A → Property B

Graph B → Equation C → Table C → Property E

Graph C → Equation D → Table E → Property A

Graph E → Equation E → Table D → Property C

Explanation:

Graph A corresponds to equation A, x·y = 2, and Table B → Property D

xy = 2 has a vertical asymptote at x = 0, and a horizontal asymptote at y = 0

y = 2/x, when x = 0, y = ∞

Graph D corresponds to equation B,
`-\left | x\right |` + 1 which corresponds to table A → Property B

The domain extends from (-∞, ∞), and [1, -∞)

Graph B corresponds to equation C, -(x + 2)² which gives the values in Table C and Property E wich is a horizontal shift of 2 units left and a reflection across the x-axis

Graph C corresponds to equation D, (1/3)·x - 2, which gives the values on Table E and Property A

The y-intercept of (1/3)·x - 2 = (0, -2), and the x-intercept = (6, 0)

Graph E corresponds to equation E, x³ = y, which gives the values on Table D Property C, y is x cubed
