- Do the graphs of the functions in Exercises 39–44 have any horizontal tangent lines in the interval 0 … x … 2p? If so, where? If not, why not? Visualize your findings by graphing the functions with a grapher.arrow_forwardIn Exercises 63–65, find the domain and range of each composite function. Then graph the composition of the two functions on separate screens. Do the graphs make sense in each case? Give reasons for your answers. Comment on any differences you see. 63. a. y = tan-1 (tan x) b. y = tan (tan-1 x) 64. a. y = sin-1 (sin x) b. y = sin (sin-1 x) 65. a. y = cos-1 (cos x) b. y = cos (cos-1 x)arrow_forwardIn the section opener, we saw that 80x – 8000 f(x) 30 s xs 100 110 models the government tax revenue, f(x), in tens of billions of dollars, as a function of the tax rate percentage, x. Use this function to solve Exercises 55–58. Round to the nearest ten billion dollars. 55. Find and interpret f(30). Identify the solution as a point on the graph of the function in Figure 6.4 on page 439. 56. Find and interpret f(70). Identify the solution as a point on the graph of the function in Figure 6.4 on page 439. 57. Rewrite the function by using long division to perform (80x - 8000) - (x - 110). Then use this new form of the function to find f(30). Do you obtain the same answer as you did in Exercise 55? Which form of the function do you find easier to use? 58. Rewrite the function by using long division to perform (80x – 8000) - (x – 110).arrow_forward
- write your answers (1–2 sentences) on this questions : Q1/When can the graph of a curve in the x, y plane be described by a function y = f (x)? Q2/How can you determine from the graph of a function y = f (x) whether f can be inverted?arrow_forwardFind the domain and range of W=1/x+yarrow_forward3. Find the slope of the curve of the function y at the point P (2, ).arrow_forward
- 4. Working with functions. In this question, we will explore various properties of functions. You may want to review the basic definitions and terminology introduced on pages 15–16 of the course notes. Then, read the following definitions carefully. Definition: A function f : A → B is one-to-one iff no two elements of A have the same image. Symbol- ically, Va1, a2 E A, f(a1) = f(a2) → a1 = a2. (3) Definition: A function f: A → B is onto iff every element of B is the image of at least one element from A. Symbolically, VbE В, За Е А, f (a) — b. (4) Definition: For all functions f : A → B and g : B → C, their composition is the function g o f : A → C defined by: Va e A, (go f)(a) = g(f(a)). (5) (b) Give explicit, concrete definitions for two functions f1, f2 : Z → Z† such that: i. f2 is onto but not one-to-one, ii. fi is one-to-one but not onto, and prove that each of your functions has the desired properties.arrow_forward1. To obtain the graph of y=asinb(x-h)+k, explain what each of the values of a, b, h, and k affects the graph of function y=sinx.arrow_forwardAccording to the following data: (0,0), (0.2, 1), (0.4, 3), (0.6, 5), (0.8, 7), (1.0, 5), (1.2, 3) find the first derivative at point 0.6 by using the following stencil form. * i-2 i-1 i ÖÖÖÖÖ -10 3 -2 6hD= -9 The value is -18 The Value is -15 O the value is -16 the Value is -17 O No one i+1 i+2 4arrow_forward
