Solution

(a) The value of f(1) is given directly from the description. At x=1, the function reaches a high point of 3. So, f(1) = 3.

(b) To estimate the value of f(-1), we look at the description where it mentions the point (-1, -0.2). So, f(-1) is approximately -0.2.

(c) The function f(x) = 1 at two points: when x=0 and when x is approximately 3. So, the values of x for which f(x) = 1 are x = 0, 3.

(d) The function f(x) = 0 at two points: when x is approximately -0.8 and when x is approximately 4. So, the values of x for which f(x) = 0 are x = -0.8, 4.

(e) The domain of the function f is the set of all x-values for which the function is defined. From the description, we can see that the function is defined for all x-values from -2 to 4. So, the domain of f is [-2, 4]. The range of the function f is the set of all y-values that the function takes on. From the description, we can see that the function takes on all y-values from -1 to 3. So, the range of f is [-1, 3].

(f) The function f is increasing on the intervals where the y-values are getting larger as the x-values are getting larger. From the description, we can see that the function is increasing from x=-2 to x=1 and from x=2 to x=3. So, the intervals on which f is increasing are (-2, 1) and (2, 3).

The graph of a function g is shown.The x y-coordinate plane is given. A function labeled y = g(x) with 4 parts is graphed.The first part is a curve, enters the window in the second quadrant, goes up and right becoming less steep, crosses the y-axis at approximately y = 2.5, and ends at the open point (2, 3).The second part is a curve begins again at the open point (2, 1), goes up and right becoming less steep, and ends at the open point (5, 2).The third part is the closed approximate point (5, 1.2).The fourth part is a curve, begins at the open point (5, 2) goes down and right becoming more steep, and exits the window in the first quadrant.Use it to state the values (if they exist) of the following:(a)  lim x → 2− g(x)(b)  lim x → 2+ g(x)(c)  lim x → 2 g(x)(d)  lim x → 5− g(x)(e)  lim x → 5+ g(x)(f)  lim x → 5 g(x)SolutionLooking at the graph we see that the values of g(x) approach as x approaches 2 from the left, but they approach as x approaches 2 from the right.Therefore (a) lim x → 2− g(x) =     and    (b) lim x → 2+ g(x) = .Since the left and right limits are different, we conclude that (c) the limit as x approaches 2 of g(x) does not exist.The graph also shows that (d) lim x → 5− g(x) =     and    (e) lim x → 5+ g(x) = .This time, the left and right limits are the same and so, by this theorem, we have (f) lim x → 5 g(x) = Despite this fact, notice that g(5) ≠ 2.

Graphs of f and g are shown.There are two curves on the x y coordinate plane.A curve labeled f enters the top of second quadrant, goes down and right, crosses the negative x-axis and reaches a minimum in third quadrant, then goes up and right and intersects the origin, and reaches a maximum in first quadrant the same distance away from the x and y axes as its minimum was away from them. It then goes down and right, intersects the positive x-axis the same distance away from the origin as it intersected the negative x-axis, and exits the bottom of fourth quadrant, the same distance away from the x and y axes as was its entry point.A curve labeled g is always above the curve labeled f. g enters the top of second quadrant, goes down and right, reaches a minimum in second quadrant, goes up and right, then reaches a local maximum as it crosses the positive y-axis, and goes down and right. Then it reaches a minimum in first quadrant the same distance away from the x and y axes as was its first minimum. It then goes back up and exits the top of first quadrant the same distance away from the x and y axes as was its entry point.Is f even, odd, or neither?evenodd    neitherExplain your reasoning.It is symmetric about the origin.It is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.    It is symmetric with respect to the x-axis.It is not symmetric about the origin or the y-axis.Is g even, odd, or neither?evenodd    neitherExplain your reasoning.It is symmetric about the origin.It is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.    It is symmetric with respect to the x-axis.It is not symmetric about the origin or the y-axis.
