Introduction to Linear Functions
Imagine placing a plant in the ground one day and finding that it has doubled its height just a few days later. Although it may seem incredible, this can happen with certain types of bamboo species. These members of the grass family are the fastest-growing plants in the world. One species of bamboo has been observed to grow nearly 1.5 inches every hour.http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/records-3000/fastest-growing-plant/ In a twenty-four hour period, this bamboo plant grows about 36 inches, or an incredible 3 feet! A constant rate of change, such as the growth cycle of this bamboo plant, is a linear function.
Recall from Functions and Function Notation that a function is a relation that assigns to every element in the domain exactly one element in the range. Linear functions are a specific type of function that can be used to model many real-world applications, such as plant growth over time. In this chapter, we will explore linear functions, their graphs, and how to relate them to data.
Ҳоло шумо Ҳеҷ ҳисобкунак инро ҳал намекунад, лекин қисмҳои он ҳисобшавандаанд. Яке аз инҳоро дар поён санҷед ё худи худро ворид кунед.
Дар ҳисоби ройгон ба ҳар як дарс қайдҳо илова карда мешаванд, қайди он, ки шумо чӣ кор кардаед, масъалаҳои ҳалшуда дар як ҷо ва муаллиме, ки шумо метавонед дар бораи ин саҳифа пурсед. Математика барои ҳама кушода аст, хоҳ ворид шуда бошад ё на.

Саволҳои маъмул
What is a function, really?
A rule that assigns exactly one output to each input. The vertical-line test on a graph is the same idea: no input may have two outputs.
Why do we need complex numbers?
Because x² + 1 = 0 has no real solution, and allowing one new number i with i² = −1 makes every polynomial equation solvable. They then turn out to describe rotation, waves and alternating current more naturally than real numbers do.
