4. The center is the midpoint of (-4, -1) and (4, 1), which is (0,0)
And the radius is the distance b/w (-4, -1) and (0,0) or the distance b/w (4, 1) and (0,0).
Radius r is So the circle equation is x 2 + y2 =17.

1.3 Linear equations in Two Variables

  Multiplied by 4, the equation is - 2x + y = -4. so y = 2x - 4.

3. parallel line has same slope as 4x - 3y =7, that is m = 4/3.
So the line equation with m = 4/3 passing through (-3,2) is

4. y = 1

5. The given equation solving for y is y = -6x +10.
So the perpendicular slope is 1/6.
Line equation with m=1/6 passing through (2, 5) is

6. y = 7

7. (1) Two point from the given condition are (8, 0.21) and (15, 4.75).
m=0.65
y - 0.21 =0.65(t - 8);
y = 0.65t - 4.99

1.6 A library of Parent Functions

1.
(1) h(-2.3) = [[ 3(-2.3) – 1 ]] + 2 = [[ -6.9 – 1 ]] + 2 = [[ -7.9 ]] + 2 = -8 + 2 = -6.
(2) h(3.1) = [[ 3(3.1) - 1]] + 2 = [[ 9.3 – 1 ]] + 2 = [[ 8.3 ]] + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10.

1.8 Composite function

4. X( t ) = 50t (there is a typo in the problem for this part) and C( x ) = 60x + 750

(2) It's a Cost function depending on hours

1.9 Inverse Function

1.(1) Yes, b/c domain is restricted the graph shows only half of the function.
(2) No. Horizontal-line Test

2.

3. f means f(-2) = 3. So 3 = k(2 - ( -2) - ( -2)3 )
3=12k, k=1/4.

4. You don’t even need to consider what the given function is.
It’s always true that

5. Switch x- coordinate and y -coordinate and connect the points. Your inverse graph
should be symmetry to y=x.

2.1 Quadratic function

1.(1) The vertex is (2,4) and it’s parabola open downward passing through (0,0).
So the equation is  y = -(x-2)2+4

(2) Vertex (1,-3), open upward, so y = a(x-1)2 - 3 Since it’s passing through (0,-2.5),
you can find “a”.

2.3 Polynomial and Synthetic Division

2. 245954
4. Yes. b/c the remainder using synthetic division is 0
5. False -4/7 is a zero.
6. Using synthetic division, remainder should be zero; your remainder should be c + 210.
So c + 210 = 0, c = -210

2.4 Complex number


3. False

2.5 Zeros of Polynomial Function

2.6 Rational Functions

2.Domain is different. If you simplify
then it is same as y = x .But
is not defined at x = 0, 2 but y = x is.
The domain of is (-∞, 0)U(0, 2)U(2, ∞)
The domain of y = x is (-∞, ∞)

3.(1) g(x) = x +  5/x; VA: x = 0. Slant asymptote : y = x
(2)   VA x=2 Slant asym: y = 2x- 1
The graphs are placed between two asymptotes. Check with your calculator

4.(1) substitute t =6 and 30 to get the corresponding N values’
(2) If you graph it, VA is x = -25 or t = -25 and HA is y = 1500 or N = 1500. So as
time increase, which means as t approaches ∞, N is approaching 1500. (Since it is
asymptote graph is not toughing or passing through).
So the limiting size is 1500.

2.7 Nonlinear Inequalities

1. Critical number is either undefined points or zeros. x = 0, 5

2. Put two functions into the calculator. One is
and the other is y = 2.
Since we are looking for the intervals for
y ≤ 2, using intersection function key and
recognizing that VA’s are at x = -4 and x = 5, we will get the following interval as a
solution set .
(-∞, -8.7]U(-4, 2.7]U(5, ∞)
