The parent function is the base of a function family.
The functions that go through the origin are:
- A. Cubic
- C. Quadratic
- D. Absolute value
- E. Linear
- F. Cube root
The origin is represented as: (0,0)
A. Cubic function
A cubic function is represented as:
[tex]y = x^3[/tex]
Substitute 0 for x
[tex]y = 0^3[/tex]
[tex]y = 0[/tex]
This means that it passes through origin at (0,0)
B. Reciprocal function
A reciprocal function is represented as:
[tex]y =\frac 1x[/tex]
Substitute 0 for x
[tex]y =\frac 10[/tex]
[tex]y = und efine d[/tex]
This means that it does not pass through origin at (0,0)
C. Quadratic function
A quadratic function is represented as:
[tex]y = ax^2[/tex]
Substitute 0 for x
[tex]y = a \times 0^2[/tex]
[tex]y = 0[/tex]
This means that it passes through origin at (0,0)
D. Absolute function
An absolute function is represented as:
[tex]y = |x|[/tex]
Substitute 0 for x
[tex]y = |0|[/tex]
[tex]y = 0[/tex]
This means that it passes through origin at (0,0)
E. Linear function
A linear function is represented as:
[tex]y = mx[/tex]
Substitute 0 for x
[tex]y = m \times 0[/tex]
[tex]y = 0[/tex]
This means that it passes through origin at (0,0)
F. Cube root function
A cube root function is represented as:
[tex]y = \sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]
Substitute 0 for x
[tex]y = \sqrt[3]{0}[/tex]
[tex]y = 0[/tex]
This means that it passes through origin at (0,0)
Hence, the base functions of all the function except the reciprocal function pass through the origin
