The end behavior of a function describes what happens to the ƒ()-values as the -values either increase without bound (approach positive infinit) or decrease without bound (approach negative infinit). For instance, consider the graph of a linear function shown. From the graph, ou can make the following observations. (, + ) All real numbers Module 1 Lesson 1 PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Integrate Mathematical Processes This lesson provides an opportunit to address Mathematical Process TEKS A.1.D, which calls for students to communicate mathematical ideas, reasoning, and their implications using multiple representations, including smbols, diagrams, graphs, and language as appropriate.

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan INTEGRATE MATHEMATICAL PROCESSES Focus on Modeling Draw students attention to the use of braces, parentheses, and brackets in the various representations.

EXPLAIN 1 Identifing a Function s Domain, Range, and End Behavior from its Graph AVOID COMMON ERRORS Some students ma incorrectl identif the end behavior of a function that increases over the interval (-, ) as As -, ƒ (). Help students to see that for this part of the description, the must consider the behavior of the function as the values of decrease (the behavior of the graph as observed from right to left), and not whether the function itself is an increasing or decreasing function. Domain, Range, and End Behavior
QUESTIONING STRATEGIES Is it possible that a linear function with the domain {all real numbers} could have a range that is not {all real numbers}? Eplain. Yes; the function could be a constant function, such as f () =. The domain is {all real numbers}, but the range is {}. Statement of End Behavior As the -values increase without bound, the f()-values also increase without bound. As the -values decrease without bound, the f()-values also decrease without bound. Eample 1 Smbolic Form of Statement As +, f() +. As -, f() -. Write the domain and the range of the function as an inequalit, using set notation, and using interval notation.

Have students describe the function s domain and range using one of the notation forms from the lesson, then echange descriptions and tr to draw each other s graph. Have students compare their graphs (which ma differ) and discuss the results. 7 Lesson 1.1
Reflect. Wh is the end behavior of a quadratic function different from the end behavior of a linear function? Unlike the graph of a linear function, the graph of a quadratic function has a turning point (the verte), which changes the direction of the graph. 5. In Part B, the ƒ()-values decrease as the -values decrease. So, wh can t ou sa that f() as? The f()-values do not decrease without bound. The instead approach. Your Turn Write the domain and the range of the function as an inequalit, using set notation, and using interval notation. Also describe the end behavior of the function.. The graph of the quadratic function ƒ() = is shown. Domain: < < +, { < < + }, (, + ) Range: { }, (, ] End behavior: As +, f() - ; As -, f() -. EXPLAIN Graphing a Linear Function on a Restricted Domain INTEGRATE MATHEMATICAL PROCESSES Focus on Math Connections Remind students that the graph of a function represents the set of ordered pairs produced b the function. Help them to see that when the are using a graph to identif the range of a function, the are to identif the -values of those ordered pairs. Eplain Graphing a Linear Function on a Restricted Domain Unless otherwise stated, a function is assumed to have a domain consisting of all real numbers for which the function is defined. Man functions such as linear, quadratic, and eponential functions are defined for all real numbers, so their domain, when written in interval notation, is (-, + ). Another wa to write the set of real numbers is R. Sometimes a function ma have a restricted domain. If the rule for a function and its restricted domain are given, ou can draw its graph and then identif its range. Eample For the given function and domain, draw the graph and identif the range using the same notation as the given domain. ƒ() = 3 + with domain [, ] Since ƒ() = 3 + is a linear function, the graph is a line segment with endpoints at (, ƒ()), or (, -1), and (, ƒ()), or (, 5). The endpoints are included in the graph. The range is [-1, 5]. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan Module 1 8 Lesson 1 DIFFERENTIATE INSTRUCTION Cognitive Strategies If students have a difficult time consistentl identifing the domain and range of functions, encourage them to use the phrase depends on instead of is a function of. For eample, The distance traveled b a car depends on the amount of gas in the tank. Help them to see that the elements of the range depend on the elements of the domain. Domain, Range, and End Behavior 8
QUESTIONING STRATEGIES If a linear function has a restricted domain, must the range consist of a finite number of elements? Eplain. No. If the domain is restricted to an interval (or intervals), as opposed to a finite number of elements, the range could consist of infinitel man values. For eample, the range of the function f () = 3 with domain, 5 is, 15, an interval containing infinitel man numbers. If the domain of a linear function consists of n elements, how man elements would there be in the range? Eplain. One, if the function is a constant function, or n if it is not. In a non-constant linear function, each element of the domain is paired with a different element of the range. B ƒ() = - - with domain { > -3} Since ƒ() = - is a linear function, the graph is a ra with its endpoint at (-3, ƒ(-3)), or (-3, 1). The endpoint is not included in the graph. { < 1} The range is. Reflect 7. In Part A, how does the graph change if the domain is (, ) instead of [, ]? The graph no longer includes the endpoints of the segment. 8. In Part B, what is the end behavior as increases without bound? Wh can t ou talk about the end behavior as decreases without bound? As +, f() -. Because the domain does not include values of that are less than or equal to -3, the values of cannot decrease without bound. Your Turn For the given function and domain, draw the graph and identif the range using the same notation as the given domain. 9. ƒ() = - 1_ + with domain - < 1. f() = _ -1 with domain (, 3] 3 Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan - The range is 1 < 5. The range is (, 1]. Module 1 9 Lesson 1 LANGUAGE SUPPORT Connect Vocabular Have students work in pairs. Instruct one student to verball describe the domain, range, and end behavior of a function without using those three terms. Have the other student fill in a graphic organizer with boes titled Domain, Range, and End behavior, and write in the appropriate values under each bo. Have students switch roles and repeat the eercise using a different function. 9 Lesson 1.1
Eplain 3 Distance (mi) 3 1 d 1 Modeling with a Linear Function Recall that when a real-world situation involves a constant rate of change, a linear function is a reasonable model for the situation. The situation ma require restricting the function s domain. Eample 3 Write a function that models the given situation. Determine a domain from the situation, graph the function using that domain, and identif the range. Joce jogs at a rate of 1 mile ever 1 minutes for a total of minutes. (Use inequalities for the domain and range of the function that models this situation.) Joce s jogging rate is.1 mi/min. Her jogging distance d (in miles) at an time t (in minutes) is modeled b d(t) =.1t. Since she jogs for minutes, the domain is restricted to the interval t. 3 Time (min) t EXPLAIN 3 Modeling with a Linear Function AVOID COMMON ERRORS Some students ma erroneousl identif the domain of a function that represents a real-world situation as an interval, when in fact the domain consists onl of specific numbers within the interval, such as integers or multiples of a particular rational number. Help students to avoid this error b encouraging them to ask themselves whether an number within the interval could be a realistic input value for the situation described b the function. The range is d. A candle inches high burns at a rate of 1 inch ever hours for 5 hours. (Use interval notation for the domain and range of the function that models this situation.) The candle s burning rate is -.5 in./h. The candle s height h (in inches) at an time t (in hours) is modeled -.5t b h(t) =. Since the candle burns for 5 hours, the domain is restricted to the interval, 5. The range is [3.5, ].

Have them evaluate whether the values in the range seem realistic for the given situation. Module 1 1 Lesson 1 Domain, Range, and End Behavior 1
ELABORATE INTEGRATE MATHEMATICAL PROCESSES Focus on Communication Discuss different strategies for determining the range of a function from a graph of the function. Have students describe methods the use, and illustrate their methods using graphs of different tpes of functions, including those with restricted domains. QUESTIONING STRATEGIES Is it possible that a real-world situation can be modeled b a function whose domain consists of both positive and negative real numbers? If no, eplain wh not. If es, give an eample. Yes. Possible eample: a function that describes the relationship between air temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and dew point, at a given level of humidit. The domain consists of all possible air temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit. SUMMARIZE THE LESSON How do ou identif and represent the domain, range, and end behavior of a function? To identif the domain, find the values of for which the function is defined. To find the range, find the values of f () for each value of in the domain. There are different was of representing the domain and range, including using inequalities, set notation, and interval notation. To find the end-behavior, consider what happens to the values of the range as the values of the domain increase or decrease without bound. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan Reflect 11. In Part A, suppose Joce jogs for onl 3 minutes. The domain is t 3 instead of t. A. How does the domain change? The graph s right endpoint is (3, 3) instead of (, ). B. How does the graph change? The range is d 3 instead of d. C. How does the range change? Your Turn 1. While standing on a moving walkwa at an airport, ou are carried forward 5 feet ever 15 seconds for 1 minute.

The walkwa s rate of motion is 5 ft/s. The distance d (in feet) 3 ou travel at an time t (in seconds) is modeled b d(t) = 5 3 t. Domain: {t t }; range: {d d 1}.

Describe what numbers each interval includes. [a, b]: This interval includes all real numbers between a and b, including both a and b. [a, b): This interval includes all real numbers between a and b, including a but not b. (a, b]: This interval includes all real numbers between a and b, including b but not a. (a, b): This interval includes all real numbers between a and b but does not include a or b. 1. What impact does restricting the domain of a linear function have on the graph of the function? If the domain is bounded at both ends, the graph of the linear function is a line segment rather than a line. If the domain is bounded at onl one end, the graph of the linear function is a ra rather than a line. 15. Essential Question Check-In How does slope determine the end behavior of a linear function with an unrestricted domain? If slope is positive, the f()-values increase without bound as the -values increase without bound, and the f()-values decrease without bound as the -values decrease without bound. If the slope is negative, the end behavior reverses: The f()-values decrease without bound as the -values increase without bound, and the f()-values increase without bound as the -values decrease without bound.

A bicclist travels at a constant speed of 1 miles per hour for a total of 5 minutes. (Use set notation for the domain and range of the function that models this situation.) The bicclist s speed is 1 mi/h. The distance traveled d (in miles) at an time t (in hours) is modeled b d(t) = 1t. Since the bicclist travels for 5 minutes, or.75 hour, the domain is restricted to the interval {t t.75}. The range is {d d 9}. 1.

Is Cameron s function, along with the domain and range, correct? Eplain. Cameron s function is correct, but the domain and range are incorrect. Cameron worked for a total of hours, so the domain of the function should be t. After hours, Cameron has sold 5 = 15 tickets.

When is it a ra? It is a line segment when the domain is a closed interval. It is a ra when the domain is restricted to real numbers greater than or equal to a number, or less than or equal to a number. AVOID COMMON ERRORS When attempting to model a real-world situation, students sometimes confuse the dependent and independent variables, thus reversing the domain and range. Help them to understand that the domain consists of the values represented b the independent variable, and that the range values are a function of the values of the domain.

The gas tank for this car holds 1 gallons of gas. a. Write and graph a linear function that models the distance that each car can travel for a given amount of gas (up to one tankful). b. Write the domain and range of each function using interval notation. c.

For the 7 car, the linear model is d 7 (g) = 31.g. For the 1 car, the linear model is d 1 (g) = 35.g. b. The domain for the 7 model is [, 1], and the range is [, 99.]. The domain for the 1 model is [, 1], and the range is [, 59.]. 1 c. The difference function is f(g) = d 1 (g) d 7 (g) = 35.g 31.g =.g. This function gives the vertical distance between the graphs of d 1 (g) and d 7 (g). For instance, when g = 1, the vertical distance between the graphs is f(1) =. 1 = 7., which means the 1 car can travel 7. miles farther on a tankful of gas than the 7 car. d. The domain is {g g 1}, and the range is {f(g) f(g) 7.}. 8 7 1 Gas used (gal) 1 g Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Compan Wh must restrictions be placed on the domain? The tank onl holds at most 1 gallons of gas and at least gallons of gas. A graph with a negative number of gallons of gas or more than 1 gallons of gas would not make sense for this situation. Wh does the domain contain all of the points in the interval and not just the integer values? The amount of gas used is continuous. There is a distance traveled for an value of g in the domain. INTEGRATE MATHEMATICAL PROCESSES Focus on Communication Encourage students to relate the ranges that the wrote for the difference functions to their graphs.
