A pizzeria sells a rectangular 20” by 22” pizza for the same amount as a large round pizza (24” diameter). If both pizzas are the same thickness, which option gives you the most pizza for the money
The engineers at an auto manufacturer pay students $0.08 per mile plus $25 per day to road test their new vehicles. How much did the auto manufacturer pay Sally to drive 440 miles in one day? John earned $93 test-driving a new car in one day. How far did he drive?
Things you should know about Functions • Domain: • Range: • Function: • Vertical Line Test: Input values, x, independent Output values, y, dependent Each domain value has 1 y value A graph is a function if a vertical line passes through it and only intercepts at 1 point
Find the domain of the functions • , where A(s) is the area of an equilateral triangle with sides length s.
Continuity • Continuous • Removable discontinuity • Jump discontinuity • Infinite discontinuity
For each function, tell the intervals on which it is increasing and decreasing.
Local and Absolute Extrema • Local values are located on an interval. Absolute values are the highest or lowest on the whole graph • Local maximum is the highest point in a section of a graph. If it is actually the highest point, it is the absolute maximum.
Decide whether has any local maxima or local minima. If so, find each maximum or minimum value and the value of x at which it occurs.
Symmetric about the y-axis For all x in the domain of f, These are even function.
Symmetric about the x-axis These are not true functions because they fail the vertical line test. You can say (x, -y) is on the graph when (x, y) is on the graph.
Symmetric about the origin For all x in the domain of f, This is called an odd function.
Checking symmetry • To check if a function is an even function, subsitute (-x) in for x. If the function is the same, it is even. • To check if a function is odd, substitute (-x) in for x. If the function is the opposite sign of the original function, it is odd. • If the rules applied does not fit an even nor odd function, you would say the function is neither.
Asymptotes • An asymptote is an imaginary line where the function does not exist. It can forever get closer to that line but will never actually touch the line.
Finding Asymptotes • If a function is in fraction form, set the denominator equal to 0 to find vertical asymptotes. • Set the whole function equal to zero to find the horizontal asymptotes.
