- The circumference C of a circle is a function of its radius given by C(r)=2r. Express the radius of a circle as a function of its circumference. Call this function r(C) , Find r(36) and interpret its meaning,arrow_forwardTo graph the function f , we plot the points ( x ,________ ) ina coordinate plane. To graph f(x)=x22 , we plot the points ( x ,__________). So the point (3,_________ ) is on the graph of f . The height of the graph of f above the x -axis when x =3 is _________. Complete the table, and sketch a graph of f .arrow_forwardA store offers customers a 30% discount on the price x of selected items. Then, the store takes off an additional 15% at the cash register. Write a price function P(x) that computes the final price of the item in terms of the original price x. (Hint: Use function composition to find your answer.)arrow_forward
- In these problems you are asked to find a function that models a real-life situation. Use the principals of modeling described in this Focus to help you. Distance They ships leave port at the same time. One sails south at 15 mi/h, and the other sails east at 20 mi/h. Find a function that models the distance D between the ships in terms of the time t (in hours) elapsed since their departure.arrow_forwardA function f is One to one if different input produce ___________outputs. You can tell from the graph that a function is one to one by using the ____________Test.arrow_forward(a) To obtain the graph of g(x)=2x1 , we start with the graph of f(x)=2x and shift it _____________ (upward/ downward) 1 unit. (b) To obtain the graph of h(x)=2x1 , we start with the graph of f(x)=2xand shift it to the (left/right) 1unit.arrow_forward
- How do the graphs of the functions f(x)=x2 and f(x)=x21 differ? We graphed them at the start of this section. What is the difference between their graphs? How are their graphs the same?arrow_forwardField Trip A class of fourth graders walks to a park on a field trip. The function y=f(t) graphed below gives their distance from school in ft t minutes after they left school. What is the average speed going to the park? How long was the class at the park? How far away is the park? Graph the function y=0.5f(t). How is the graph of the new function related to the graph of the original function? What is the average speed going to the new park? How far is the new park? Graph the function y=f(t10). How is the graph of the new function related to the graph of the original function? How does the field trip described by this function differ from the original trip?arrow_forward
