Abstract | Several researchers have promoted reimagining functions and graphs more quantitatively. One part of this research has examined graphing "conventions" that can at times conflict with quantitative reasoning about graphs. In this theoretical paper, we build on this work by considering a widespread convention in mathematics teaching: putting related, derived graphical objects (e.g., the graphs of a function and its inverse or the graphs of a function and its derivative) on the same set of axes. We show problems that arise from this convention in different mathematical content areas when considering contextualized functions and graphs. We discuss teaching implications about introducing such related graphical objects through context on separate axes, and eventually building the convention of placing them on the same axis in a way that this convention and its purposes become more transparent to students.
