Algebra is a subdivision in math, which comprises of infinite
number of operations on equations, polynomials, inequalities, radicals,
rational numbers, logarithms, etc. Graphing algebra equations or
function is also a part of algebra. Graphing is nothing but the
pictorial view of the given function or equation, it may be a line,
parabola, hyperbola, curve, circle, etc.The most commonly used graphing
functions with their graph is given in the following sections.
Common graph functions:
The most commonly used graph functions are,
Linear function which gives a straight line
f(x) = ax +b
Functions with degree 2
f(x) = ax2 +b
Functions with degree 3,
f(x) = ax3 + bx
Functions of square root,
f(x) =` sqrt(x)`
Graph for the common functions:
The graphical view of common functions is shown below,
1. Linear function.
Linear
functions are in the format where the function has degree 1. So that
the function varies linearly. The general format for linear functions is
shown below,
f(x) = ax +b
where, x power is 1. b is a constant.
The graph for the linear function is a line and the graph is shown below,
The function for degree 2 is in the format,
f(x) = ax2 . where, a is a constant
The graph for this function looks as shown below,
f(x) = ax3
where, a is a constant.
The graph looks as shown below,
4. Function with degree 4 is in th format,
f(x) = ax4
where, a is a constant.
The graph is as follows,
The graph is as follows,
f(x) = sqrt (x)
The graph is as follows,
