Exercise 1.7.4 solution:

 

 

So the graph must be symmetric with respect to the origin.

 

 

Return

 

Exercise 1.7.3 solution:

 

 

So the graph must be symmetric with respect to the x-axis.

 

 

Return

 

Exercise 1.7.2 solution:

 

 

Therefore, the function is even.

Domain , Range .

Return

 

Exercise 1.4.4 solution:

 

The implicit domain is .  To find the range, replace  with y and solve for x to get

 

.  So y cannot equal to 2.  Thus, the range of the function is .

 

Return

 

 

Exercise 1.4.3 solution:

 

Since we cannot divide by 0, we know that x cannot equal to either 0 or 1.  And since we cannot take the square root of a negative number (remember, output numbers must be real), then .  Taken together, these requirements mean that .  Thus the implicit domain is .

 

Return

 

Exercise 1.4.2 solution:

 

Since the quantity under the radical must be non-negative, .

 

Thus the implicit domain is .

 

Return

 

Exercise 1.4.1 solution:

 

x  can  take any value except 3, thus the domain is, in interval notation,

Return

 

 

 

Exercise 1.3.1 solution:

 

For the equation , there is only one possible value for y given any particular value of x, namely, the square of x.  So y is a function of x.

 

But for the equation , there can be two values of y for some values of x.  For example, for x = 4, y could have either the value of +2 or -2.  Thus, for the second equation, y is not a function of x.

 

Return

 

 

 

Exercise 1.2.3 solution:

 

We want to find  given that .

 

We know that .  Then placing  into each of the parentheses gives:
