Ключевые идеи главы в понятной последовательности перед практикой.
Input-output relationship
A function maps each allowed input to one output. Formula, table, and graph are different representations of the same relationship.
Parameters and graph
Parameters change slope, position, amplitude, or rate of change. Read the key features before plotting individual points.
Domain and interpretation
The domain states which inputs are allowed. In a real model, also check whether the output is physically meaningful.
Coordinates
Use a suitable representation, state the rule, and keep every numerical or algebraic step equivalent. Finish with estimation, an inverse operation, or substitution as a check.
Linear graphs
Use a suitable representation, state the rule, and keep every numerical or algebraic step equivalent. Finish with estimation, an inverse operation, or substitution as a check.
Gradient
Use a suitable representation, state the rule, and keep every numerical or algebraic step equivalent. Finish with estimation, an inverse operation, or substitution as a check.
Intercept
Use a suitable representation, state the rule, and keep every numerical or algebraic step equivalent. Finish with estimation, an inverse operation, or substitution as a check.
`y = mx + c`
Use a suitable representation, state the rule, and keep every numerical or algebraic step equivalent. Finish with estimation, an inverse operation, or substitution as a check.

Worked function example
For f(x) = 2x - 6, find f(5) and the x-intercept.
- 1Substitute x = 5: f(5) = 2·5 - 6.
- 2For the intercept set f(x) = 0: 2x - 6 = 0.
- 3Solve for x and check the point on the graph.
f(5) = 4, x-intercept = 6/2
Reasoning example
Before calculating, explain the key idea from “Coordinates” and which conditions must be checked.
- 1Define the idea in one clear sentence.
- 2Connect it to a representation, law, or formula.
- 3State a restriction, unit, or final check that makes the solution valid.
The answer should show not only which rule is used for “Coordinates”, but also why it is valid here.
