Investigation 5.1 - Graphing

Experiment with graphing and the following equations. Graph one set of equations at a time. Graph sets 1 and 4 with paper and pencil; Graph sets 2 and 3 using a computer program. For each set, two of the graphs will be similar in some way, and one of the graphs will be different. Answer questions A and B for each set.

	Setl:	y=3x-4		y=x2		y=3x+2
	Set2:	y=5		y=3x		y=lx
	Set3:	y=2x+3		y=2x-5		y=0.5x+2
	Set4:	y=2x		y=2+x		y=x+5
  • A
    1. Which two equations in the set have graphs that are similar?
    2. In what ways are the two graphs similar?
    3. In what ways are the equations for the two graphs similar?
  • B
    1. Which equation in the set has a graph that is different from the graphs of the other equations?
    2. In what way is the graph different from the other graphs?
    3. In what way is the equation different from the other equations?
  1. Graph paper side 1 = set one graphs (3 on one grid)
  2. Graph Paper side 2 = set four graphs (3 on one grid)
  3. Graph Paper side 4 = set 3 traced graphs on one grid
  4. Graph paper side 4 = set 4 traced graphs on one grid
  5. Notepaper side 1 = 6 xy tables for sets 1 and 4
  6. Notepaper side 2 = 6 xy tables copied from WinPlot
  7. Notepaper side 3 = Answers to Questiona A and B (each set has 3 answers)
  8. Notepaper side 4 = Answers to problem 5.1 Follow-Up
