Functions Practice

Feed the machine: evaluate, tabulate, find domains, zeros, and intercepts, and chain functions together.

1 Practice

Type your answer and press Check answer (or Enter). A wrong answer earns a hint first; a second miss earns another hint; a third miss walks you through the full solution.

2 What you’ll practice

Every problem is generated fresh from templates across several question types — a problem never repeats until its whole pool is used up.

Evaluate

f(x) at a number.

f(−2) = ?

Table values

Fill f(x) = ax² + bx + c.

x = 2 → ?

Zeros

Where is f(x) = 0?

f(x) = 4x − 12

x-intercepts

Factorable quadratics.

(x − 2)(x + 5)

y-intercept

Just f(0).

(0, c)

Domain

1/(x−a) and √(x−a).

x ≠ a / x ≥ a

Composition

Inside out: f(g(t)).

f(g(3)) = ?

3 Watch out for these

The three mistakes students make most often on these problems.

f(x) is not multiplication

f(3) is the output at input 3 — never “f times 3”.

Domain first

x = a is forbidden for 1/(x−a); x < a is forbidden for √(x−a).

Inside out

(f∘g)(x) = f(g(x)): compute g first.
