In Problems 57–61, the length of a plant, L, is a function of its mass, M. A unit increase in a plant’s mass stretches the plant’s length more when the plant is small, and less when the plant is large.57 Assuming M > 0, decide if the function agrees with the description.

- In Problems 101–104, graph each function. Based on the graph, state the domain and the range, and find any intercepts.arrow_forwardIn Problems 13–24, determine whether the graph is that of a function by using the vertical-line test. If it is, use the graph to find:(a) The domain and range (b) The intercepts, if any (c) Any symmetry with respect to the x-axis, the y-axis, or the originarrow_forwardIn Problems 11–18, match each graph to its function. A. Constant function E. Square root function B. Identity function F. Reciprocal function C. Square function G. Absolute value function D. Cube function H.

- In Problems 13–24, use the graph of the function f given.arrow_forwardIn Problems 31–42:(a) Find the domain of each function. (b) Locate any intercepts. (c) Graph each function.(d) Based on the graph, find the range. (e) Is f continuous on its domain?arrow_forwardIn Problems 94–97, the graphs of the given pairs of functions intersectinfinitely many times. In each problem, find four of these points ofintersection.arrow_forward
- If the function y=e−3x is vertically stretched by a factor of 4, reflected across the y-axis, and then shifted up 5 units, which is the resulting function?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_forwardIn Problems 19–26, sketch the graph of each function. Be sure to label three points on the grapharrow_forward

Give the interval of convergence of the new series.arrow_forwardb. Are there any critical values for either graph? Where are the intersections between the two? What do these intersections represent? c. Find the points where the hours of daylight are at a maximum/minimum. Around what time of the year are these points? Compare the information. d. What tools did you use to solve this problem? What other ways could you have come to find the same solution? e. How many hours of daylight are in each location at t=5? at t=8?arrow_forward8. Differentiate each function. Express your answer in a simplified factored form a. f(x) = (x + 4)*(x – 3)6 b. y = (x² + 3)³(x³ + 3)² 3x² + 2x . d. h(x) = x°(3x – 5)² e. y = x*(1 – 4x²)³ - 3 4 3 y = f. y = .2 + 1 x² + 3 .2arrow_forward
