2-6: Special Functions
• Direct Variation: A linear function in the form y = kx, where k 0
• Constant: A linear function in the form y = b
• Identity: A linear function in the form y = x• Absolute Value: A function in the form
y = |mx + b| + c (m 0)• Greatest Integer: A function in the form y = [x]
