How do I find the function using the graph?

Question

I have a graph, how do I find the function used to create it?

Answer 1

Hi Ritchie,

 

What graph are you referring to? A picture or snapshot of it would be helpful.

 

If you are speaking in general, one of the most important skills you have to develop over time is to associate certain graphical "identities" with their corresponding parent functions. Please see the link below for a figure of several common associations.
