In this activity, you've made parallel lines by: • Dragging points with NO GRID • Dragging points WITH A GRID • Entering EQUATIONS What are the advantages of each approach?
Dragging points with NO GRID: We have to line it up more neatly. Dragging points WITH A GRID: We can notice that it has to have the same slope. Entering EQUATIONS: You know that it has to have the same slope, but different y-intercepts.
Exploring Range: Now we will identify the range of functions. The range is the set of y-values we get after substituting all the possible x-values into a function. Notice that the range of this function is y≤1, not y<1.
Even though there is not a closed dot placed at 2,1, EVERY point along the curve is a closed dot unless you actually see an open dot.
How can we determine if a graph represents a function or not?

Pause and Recap Messages encrypted with the Caesar cipher are very easy to crack, especially with a computational tool. Now that you've had a little practice cracking an alphabetic shift cipher (pretty easy, huh?) let's try something more difficult.
Recap terminology: Encryption - a process of encoding messages to keep them secret, so only "authorized" parties can read it. Decryption - a process that reverses encryption, taking a secret message and reproducing the original plain text Cipher - the generic term for a technique (or algorithm) that performs encryption Caesar's Cipher - a technique for encryption that shifts the alphabet by some number of characters. Cracking encryption - When you attempt to decode a secret message without knowing all the specifics of the cipher, you are trying to crack the encryption.

Exploring Domain: A mathematician says something is wrong with the shading on this graph. What do you think it is?
There are no points on the parallel shaded region and the line keeps continuing forever on the graph.
What do we call when we draw vertical lines through a graph to check whether it passes through 2 points to determine whether the graph is a function?
We call it the vertical line test because we're testing the vertical line and whether it determines that the graph is a function or not.
What do you notice about the graph?
We can tell Mario starts ahead and it's shown in the y-intercept. They're both at the same place at 4 seconds into the race. Also, you can tell that Sonic runs faster because he has a steeper slope as shown in the graph.

When is the graph below the x-axis? If you are talking about the left side of the graph we use (- infinity If you are talking about the right side of the graph we use (+infinity Your x intercepts should be used when talking about positive or negative
x-intercept:
Where does the graph cross the x-axis? Should be listed as (#, 0)

Settle a dispute: Mark thinks the equation y=4+6x will match the red solid graph. Mia thinks it will match the blue dotted graph.
Who's right? Mia I think Mia is right because when I scanned the graph and found that the equation y = 4 + 6x was positive and matched the blue dotted graph because the y = 4. Also, you're adding the slope 1 space to the right and 6 spaces above, which matches Mia's answer.
Agree or disagree? Zeke claims that the function to the left should have three shaded regions for its range because it is a three-piece piecewise function. Is Zeke correct?
Yes Explain your thinking. Zeke is correct because there are three different pieces for a three-piece piece wise function. This is why it should have three different shaded regions.

Cracking Substitution Ciphers The best technique for cracking a random substitution cipher is known as frequency analysis
Frequency analysis is a technique that is based on how frequently certain letters appear in English versus others. For instance, given a section of English text, E, T, A and O are the most common, while Z, Q and X are rare. Likewise, TH, ER, ON, and AN are the most common pairs of letters that occur next to each other. In fact, the distribution of letters is roughly the same for almost all samples of English text. The version of the widget on the previous page is intended to help you crack a substitution cipher through frequency analysis. By analyzing the frequency of the letters in the encrypted message compared to the frequency of letters in a typical piece of English prose, you can start to narrow in on what some of the letter mappings might be. The tool shows you how the frequency of letters in the encrypted text (orange) compares with frequencies from typical english (blue). Hint: Where to start? Find the short words and "crack" them first. How many one-letter words do you know? ("a"). A very common 3-letter word is "the". Once you've done that, you have substitions for some of the most common letters. You should be able to use intuition to look at other words with these partial subsititions and make good guesses. After finding only a handful of hard-fought letters, the rest will tumble quickly. Comparing the frequencies of letters gives good insight for making sensible guesses. Try this: The animation below shows someone getting started. Here's what they tried First sort the characters by frequency. Identify a group of characters that might map to the word the.It's a good start! Try this: The animation below shows someone getting started.

Favorite Form? Which form would you prefer to use to plot a line that passes through these points? Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
The form that I prefer to use to plot a line that passes through these points is Slope-intercept form because I'm very accustomed to doing it and that form is most relatable to me when it comes to math.
When can we use two different brackets?
We can use two different brackets if we want to include one number and not another. Example: (2,10] is an interval that DOES NOT include the number 2 but INCLUDES the number 10
Point-Slope Form
y - y1 = m(x - x1) m = slope y1 and x1 are the coordinates of a point on the line
Challenge #5: Adjust the equation so the line passes through the points. Hint: Adjust only the slope.
y = - 4/5 (x - 1) + 8
What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to and has the same y-intercept as the graph shown?
y = -2 + 1/3 x Explain your thinking. I chose the equation y = -2 + 1/3x because the y-intercept was -2 on the graph and the slope of the line on the graph was 1/3.
Sonic (Blue) begins 10 yards behind the starting line and run towards the finish at a rate of 15 yards per second. Mario (Red) starts 5 yards in front of the starting line and runs toward the finish at a rate of 10 yards per second. When and where will they meet? Graph the two functions and find their solution in (x, y) form. Use the Zoom table to help you graph.

Write the inequality: Fix the inequality below to correctly show the domain of the function.
-1.5 greater than or equal to x greater than or equal to 1
Strict or Non-Strict? Four possible answers for Screen 4 are below. Which best represents the domain shown to the left? You can adjust the inequality on Screen 4 if this helps with your thinking. −1.5<x<1 −1.5≤x<1 −1.5<x≤1 −1.5≤x≤1
-1.5 greater than or equal to x greater than or equal to 1 Explain your thinking. I chose this inequality because I know that the plotted point -1.5 is plotted on the left and x could be greater than or equal to either -1.5 or 1, but we do not know for sure because x does not have a value, and so this is why I chose this inequality.
The lines shown here are ALMOST parallel, but not quite. Here are the equations of the lines: Dashed: y=−1.5x+3 Solid: y=−1.4x−2 1. What is ALMOST the same about the equations? 2. How could you change the equation of the solid line so that both the dashed and the solid line are EXACTLY parallel?
1. The the decimal for the slope of both 1.4 and 1.5 was off by .1 rather than having the exact slope, but they were really close in slope. 2. You could change the slope and change it to -1.5 to make it the same as the dashed line.
2 x + y = 6
2 (0) + y = 6 0 + y = 6 y = 6 (0 , 6) = y-intercept 2x + 0 = 6 2 (3) 6 + 0 = 6 2x/2 = x , 6/2 = 3 x = 3 (3, 0) = x - intercept 2x + y = 6 - 2x -2x y = -2x + 6 - x + -2x + 6 = 3 -3x + 6 = 3 -6 -6 -3x/3 = -3/-3 x = 1 y = 4 ( 1 , 4)
Which of the following equations is written in standard form? 2x + y = 10 -2x + y = 12 y = 9x + 1 y - 4 = 7(x - 3)
2x + y = 10. This equation is written in standard form because the x and y are whole numbers and 2 is supposed to be positive.
How could you rewrite the blue equation with only x variables? y = 3x + 4 2x + y = 14
5x +4 = 14 (2, 10)
