Polynomial and Rational Functions
In a proportional relationship where is multiplied by a constant to equal between two variables and , what is the constant referred to as in this context of a proportionality constant?
The dependent variable
The independent variable
The exponential base
The coefficient of function
When analyzing near , what type of discontinuity should students expect to find?
No discontinuity as logarithmic functions are continuous over their domain by definition.
Infinite discontinuity due to the vertical asymptote on one side of .
Jump discontinuity since there's a gap in function values around .
Removable discontinuity since is not defined at but can be made continuous by redefining .
If function has an inverse denoted by and the point lies on the graph of , which point must lie on the graph of ?
(-3, -7)
(-7, -3)
(3, -7)
(7, 3)
What kind of discontinuity occurs if a single point is removed from the graph of a continuous function?
Point discontinuity
Jump discontinuity
Infinite discontinuity
Oscillating discontinuity

Linear decay model
Quadratic model
Logarithmic model
Exponential decay model
If a horizontal line intersects a graph more than once, what property does the graph lack?
Continuity across its domain
Differentiability at all points on the curve
It lacks being a one-to-one function (injectivity)
Symmetry about the y-axis or origin
If you plot a set of points where each x-value has exactly one corresponding y-value, what are you most likely graphing?
