1.3 Twelve Basic FunctionsAfter today’s lesson you will be able to: Recognize graphs of twelve basic
functions and describe their characteristics
Determine domains of functions related to the twelve basic functions
Combine the twelve basic functions in various ways to create new functions

The Squaring Function

The Cubing Function f(x) = x3
Domain: (- ∞, ∞) Range: (- ∞, ∞) Unbounded Always increasing Note: The origin is called a point of
inflection since the graph changes curvature at this point.
