MTG 100 Project

Fall 2015-16

Weight 5%

In this project, you are going to explore the graphing calculator and you will see how it works with functions.

Part I:

You will be asked first to draw the function as a basic function using the graphing calculator and get familiar with the different keys.  You need to find the following and explain how to get them from the calculator:

  1. a table of x and y values
  2. the x and y-intercepts

You will repeat the same exercise for the following functions:

  1. Where V is any Real numbers (ex. y = x + 2, y = x – 3, y = x +5, etc.)
  2. Where K is any Real numbers (ex. y = 2x, y = -3x, y = (1/2) x, etc.)

Then you have to analyze and write an observation between the Basic function f (x) = x and the functions:

  1. f(x) = x + V (in part a)
  2. f(x) = kx (in part b)

Part II:

Find a real application to be used for any linear function.  There are a lot of real applications in your text book in the word problems to get you started.

Your report will include:

  • A cover page which include your name, ID, Course Code and title, and your section.
  • Table of contents
  • An introduction
  • The drawing of all functions and a description on how did you do it using the graphing calculator (Part I)
  • An analyzing of all your data (Part I)
  • Your application (Part II)
  • Your opinion on the graphing calculator
  • All your reference with recitation

If you do need any more clarification, please contact your instructor. You can go to www.Desmos.com  or look for other graphing calculator, there are a lot more.

Important notes:

Please try to submit your project on time or before the due date.  Please don’t come with any excuses as the computer is not printing or etc. Try to be ready before the due date, so you can cover any problem you might phase.

Good Luck,
