Grade 10

Graphs of Power Function

Check that you have achieved the above at the end of the lesson.

• Identify the graphs of power functions in the form of y = axn for values of n=0,1,2,3,-1,-2
• Sketch the graphs of power functions.
• Describe the graphs of power functions.

By the end of the lesson, you should be able to;

lesson Objectives

Explore using Desmos

Instructions:

• Copy and complete the table shown on the side.
• For each graph, plot it in desmos to see its appearance.
• Sketch the graph in your book.
• describe what the graph looks like. For the description, you can use the following hints:

the graph is a straight line through the origin, the graph exists in the first, second, third, and fouth quadrants. the graph is symmetrical.

Using your device, join the kahoot using the game pin on the side for a formative assessment.
