  1. The graph of f is a smooth curve through these points, from x = -3 to x = 3 only. On a worksheet, f(x) = x³ − 3x is drawn only for -3 ≤ x ≤ 3. Ari needs the absolute maximum. Which is it?

    • The value 2 (where x is -1)
    • The value -18 (where x is -3)
    • The value 18 (where x is 3)
  2. The graph of f is a smooth curve through these points, from x = -4 to x = 5 only. Esme works in pencil with f(x) = -x³ + 12x on -4 ≤ x ≤ 5. Which is the absolute minimum?

    • The value -65 (where x is 5)
    • The value 16 (where x is -4)
    • The value -16 (where x is -2)

  6. In a notebook, Luz compares the tables of f(x) = 2ˣ and g(x) = x + 1. Where does f(x) = g(x)?

    • x = 1 and x = 2
    • x = 0 only
    • x = 0 and x = 1
    • x = -1 and x = 2

  8. Milo lines up the tables of f(x) = √x and g(x) = x/2 in pencil. For which x is f(x) = g(x)?

    • x = 0 and x = 2
    • x = 0 and x = 4
    • x = 0 only
    • x = -1 and x = 5

  10. On a puzzle card, Noah sees tables for f(x) = |x| and g(x) = x/2 + 3. Where is f(x) = g(x)?

    • x = -2 and x = 6
    • x = 2 and x = 6

  13. In a notebook, Ren compares the table of f with g(x) = 5x − 4, from x = 2 to x = 6. By how much is one average rate greater?

  14. Tala works in pencil: f is the table and g(x) = 2x. From x = 0 to x = 16, by how much do the average rates differ?

  15. On a puzzle card, f is a table and g(x) = x². Zee compares their average rates from x = -1 to x = 2. How much greater is the larger one?

About this worksheet

Key features of a graph: intervals, extremes, end behavior and asymptotes. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can find the average rate of change of any function between two inputs.
  • I can write domains, ranges and intervals of increase in interval notation.
  • I can give end behavior and asymptotes, find absolute extremes on an interval, and find where two functions are equal.

Words to know

average rate of change: The change in y divided by the change in x.

interval notation: [−2, 4) means from −2 to 4, keeping −2 and leaving out 4.

relative maximum: A turning point higher than the points near it.

absolute maximum: The greatest output on the whole interval, ends included.

end behavior: Where the outputs head as x gets very large or very negative.

asymptote: A line the graph gets closer and closer to.

Common mistakes

Your child found the change in y but did not divide by the change in x.

Your child divided the change in x by the change in y.

Your child subtracted the y-values in one order and the x-values in the other. Try: start both subtractions at the same row.

What to say

Ask: over how many units of x did that change happen?

Ask: is the rate y per x, or x per y?

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with key features of a graph: intervals, extremes, end behavior and asymptotes?
