1. Identify the units of each variable. 2. Make sure the units are consistent throughout the problem. 3. Include the correct units in your final answer.

It indicates a value where the function is undefined, often due to division by zero. The function approaches infinity (or negative infinity) as x approaches that value.

The graph will consist of different function segments connected or disconnected at specific points, each corresponding to a different interval.

The graph stretches away from the origin. Larger $k$ values mean that for the same $x$, $y$ is larger, and vice versa.

It indicates the value that the function approaches as x goes to positive or negative infinity. This represents a limit on the output of the function.

Look for shifts (left/right, up/down), stretches/compressions (narrower/wider, taller/shorter), and reflections (across x or y axis) compared to the parent function's graph.

It indicates a point where the function is not continuous, which can be a hole, a jump, or a vertical asymptote.

The slope represents the rate of change of the function. A positive slope indicates an increasing function, a negative slope indicates a decreasing function, and a zero slope indicates a constant function.

The domain is the set of all x-values covered by the graph, and the range is the set of all y-values covered by the graph.

It tells you what happens to the function's values as x approaches positive or negative infinity. This is determined by the leading term of the polynomial.

Check if the function is continuous at the boundary points. If there's a jump or a break, the function is discontinuous at that point.

$f(x-h)$. Right if $h > 0$, left if $h < 0$.

$f(x) + k$. Up if $k > 0$, down if $k < 0$.
