How is this factored?:
2x^2-5x-12
Multiply the first and last constants and see what adds to the second number and multiplies to the last.

Dealing with unfactorable functions.
How do you test if two functions (f(x) and g(x)) are inverses of each other?
Plug g(x) into f(x) and f(x) into g(x) and if you get x on both functions, they are inverses.
How is the function f(x)=|x| written in piecewise form?
{ -x if x< 0
{ x if x>= 0
{ -x if x< 0
{ x if x>= 0
Piecewise version of the function f(x)=|x|
How can you test if a function is even?
If its graph is symmetric across the y-axis and f(x)=f(-x)
If its graph is symmetric across the y-axis and f(x)=f(-x)
Testing if a function is even.
Increasing function definition.
x1 < x2 and f(x1) < f(x2)
x1 < x2 and f(x1) < f(x2)
Increasing function definition
In an even function on the graph, is the function increasing or decreasing?
Neither (points upward both sides)
When is a function neither increasing nor decreasing on a graph?
When it is even (points upward both sides)
