This handout cover reflections about the x and y axis along with horizontal and vertical shift on four main parent functions: quadratics, cubics, absolute value, and square roots. No stretching or compressing. Students have a QR code to check their answer.

Joke handout for evaluating and graphing piecewise functions.

Practice joke handout on finding holes and vertical asymptotes without a calculator.

Short interval notation practice with a QR code key.

Review practice joke handout finding holes and vertical asymptotes without a calculator. Also practice on evaluating and graphing piecewise functions.

This handout has students write equations (in slope-intercept form) for lines parallel or perpendicular to a given line. Students check their answer by completing the joke.

This handout give students several functions and asks them to perform operations on them. While addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are included the focus is on compositions. The handout concluded by asking students to find the difference quotient of a function. Students check their answers by matching their answers and completing the joke.

This handout has a joke for students to complete to get practice on evaluating piecewise function. Then there are graphs for students to practice graphing them. A QR code is provided for the graphs.

This handout has students transform four basic parent functions: quadratics, cubics, absolute value, and square root. They stretch/compress horizontally, reflect about the x and y axis, as well as perform vertical and horizontal shifts.

I use this review for my College Algebra class to quickly review solving linear equations and inequalities. Answers for inequalities are given in interval notation. Students complete the joke to check their answers.

This handout has students practice finding slope, graphing lines by writing them in slope-intercept form, writing equations of lines given the slope and a point as well as writing equations of lines given two points. All answers are in slope-intercept form and students complete the joke to check their answers.

This is a quick review that I use to start my College Algebra class. It has a few questions on classifying number systems and then practices three main formulas: midpoint, distance formula, and the Pythagorean Theorem.

Given two or three roots (real or complex), students must find a formula for the quadratic or cubic polynomial. Some problems provide and initial condition. Students then check their work by complete the joke at the end.

This handout has students practice simplifying square roots to write as a complex number. Students also add and subtract complex numbers as well as simplify powers of i. Multiplying and Dividing complex numbers is not included. Students check their answers by matching their answers and completing the joke.

This handout has students solve absolute value inequalities that involve both greater than and less than symbols with the absolute value on one side of the inequality. Answers are given in interval notation. Students then check their answers by completing the joke.

Students solve quadratics with complex roots by completing the square or using the quadratic formula. They then check their answers by completing the joke.

Students practice multiplying and dividing complex numbers. They then check their answers by completing the joke.

This is homework I give to student to practice three main formulas from Algebra: midpoint, distance formula, and the Pythagorean Theorem. Students complete the joke to check their answers.

Students get practice with polynomial long division by matching their answers and completing the joke at the end. Synthetic division is not included.

Students practice synthetic division by matching their answer to complete the joke.
