Advanced Precalculus Summer Assignment The following packet of material contains prerequisite skills and concepts that will be drawn upon from Algebra II as well as a preview of Precalculus. This summer packet is due the first day you return to school in September. All work must be shown for each problem given. This packet will count as a week’s worth of homework assignments. A late penalty will be applied to any work not turned in as indicated. The information contained in this packet will be reviewed at the beginning of the school year and there will be an assessment within the first two weeks of school for which the material in this packet is the basis. This assessment will count as one major test in the Quarter 1 grade.

Families of Functions Practice Questions:
1) Explain why xy 10 can be called a power function.
2) Compare and contrast exponential and power functions. How do they compare algebraically (how do their equations compare)? How do they compare graphically?
3) Compare the graphs of the increasing functions 3xf x and 3g x x . As x , which
function increases at a faster rate? How do the graphs compare as x? For which
values of x is 3 3xx , 3 3xx , 3 3xx .
4) Why is the function 4
3
xr x
x
called a rational function?
5) Sketch a reasonable graph showing how the variables are related and identify the type of function it could be. Explain your answer.
a. The temperature of a cup of coffee and the time since the coffee was poured.
b. The height of a punted football as a function of the number of seconds since it was kicked.
PART 2: Transformations of Functions Activity 1 Objective: Show that you know the effects of various constants on the graph of a function by graphing the transformation and stating the domain and range of the transformed function.
Activity 2 Objective: Explore the graph of the parent function siny x , and transform the graph.
READ BEFORE COMPELTING THIS INVESTIGATION!! Please make sure your graphing calculator is in degree mode. Once you are in degree mode please make sure to set your window to the following settings for x: Xmin = -60 Xmax = 720 Xscl = 30 You should adjust your window for y-values for each problem to see the best graph.
PART 3: Quadratics Review Objective: To solve quadratic equations using various methods, solve quadratic inequalities, write quadratic equations in different forms and model real-world scenarios with quadratics.
