Answer:
(a) Judging from the graph you can see that where x ≈ −2.9 , x = −2 , x ≈ 2.35 , and
x ≈ 2.9 correspond to where y = 1.
(b) Judging from the graph, there is no point where y = 3 so there is no x-coordinate.
"None"
(c) Judging from the graph you can see that at y = 0 is where x = 3.
(d) Judging from the graph, realizing that y ≤ 0 is where the graph lies below the x-
axis, including the endpoints. So, this occurs where − 1.75 ≤ x ≤ 2.15 approximately.
(e) Judging from the graph, y max ≈ 2.8 at x = −2.6 and y min ≈ −2.2 at x = 1.2 .
Answer:
(a) According to the table you can see that where x = −1 and x = 4 correspond to
where y = 1.
(b) Based on the information given in the table, it is impossible to determine the x
value where y = 3. "Indeterminable"
(c) According to the table you can see that at y = −1 is where x = 3.
(d) According to the table, only the points where y ≤ 0 will be determinable. These
are at x = 0 , x = 3 , and x = 5.
(e) According to the table, y max = 9 at x = 6 and y min = −2 at x = 0 .
3. In each part of the accompanying figure, determine whether the graph defines y
as a function of x .
Answer:
(a) Yes, the graph defines y as a function of x .
(b) Yes, the graph defines y as a function of x .
(c) No, the graph fails the "vertical line test".
(d) No, the graph fails the "vertical line test".
