( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)
- Use function notation to represent the relationship between inputs and outputs
- Read function inputs and outputs from a graph, table, equation, or word problem
- Recognize a linear function, and identify the slope and initial value
- Calculate a slope and interpret it as a rate of change
- Use technology to create a scatterplot and find a linear regression equation
- Interpret the meaning of the slope and initial value of a regression equation
- Use a regression equation to predict the output for a given input
- Use technology to calculate the correlation
- Interpret the correlation from a value of r, or by looking at a scatterplot
