Sketch the graph of the first function by plotting points if necessary. Then use transformation(s) to obtain the graph of the second function. \(y=x^{2}, \quad y=x^{2}-2\)
Sketch the graph of the first function by plotting points if necessary. Then use transformation(s) to obtain the graph of the second function. \(y=|x|, \quad y=|2 x-1|+1\)
Find the zero(s) of the function f to five decimal places. $$ f(x)=2 x^{3}-3 x+2 $$
You are given the graph of a function \(f .\) Determine whether \(f\) is one-to- one.
Spam Messages The total number of email messages per day (in billions) between 2003 and 2007 is approximated by $$ f(t)=1.54 t^{2}+7.1 t+31.4 \quad 0 \leq t \leq 4 $$ where \(t\) is measured in years, with \(t=0\) corresponding to 2003\. Over the same period the total number of spam messages per day (in billions) is approximated by $$ g(t)=1.21 t^{2}+6 t+14.5 \quad 0 \leq t \leq 4 $$ a. Find the rule for the function \(D=f-g .\) Compute \(D(4)\), and explain what it measures. b. Find the rule for the function \(P=g / f\). Compute \(P(4)\), and explain what it means.
