Answer:

1. Absolute value function

2. Exponential function

3. Polynomial function (cubic)

4. Cube root function

5. Exponential function

Explanation:

Absolute Value Function

An equation that contains an algebraic expression within absolute value symbols.


\textsf{e.g.}\quad y = |x + 9|

Exponential Function


y=ab^x

The variable is the exponent.

A continuous function with a horizontal asymptote.

An exponential function has a fast growth or decay.


\textsf{e.g.}\quad y =-\left((1)/(2)\right)^x

Polynomial Function


y=a_nx^n+a_(n-1)x^(n-1)+...+a_2x^2+a_1x+a_0

An equation containing variables with non-negative integer powers and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction and multiplication.


\textsf{e.g.}\quad y = x^3 - 6

Cube Root Function

The inverse function of the cubic function.

A reflection of the cubic function in the line y = x.


\textsf{e.g.}\quad y=\sqrt[3]{x}
