Without using a graphing utility, sketch the graph of \(y=\log _{2} x .\) Then on the same set of axes, sketch the graphs of \(y=\log _{2}(x-1), y=\log _{2} x^{2}\) \(y=\left(\log _{2} x\right)^{2},\) and \(y=\log _{2} x+1\)
Designer functions Design a sine function with the given properties. It has a period of 24 hr with a minimum value of 10 at \(t=3\) hr and a maximum value of 16 at \(t=15 \mathrm{hr}.\)
The population \(P\) of a small town grows according to the function \(P(t)=100 e^{t / 50},\) where \(t\) measures the number of years after \(2010 .\) How long does it take the population to double?
Amplitude and period Identify the amplitude and period of the following functions. $$g(\theta)=3 \cos (\theta / 3)$$
Suppose the probability of a server winning any given point in a tennis match is a constant \(p,\) with \(0 \leq p \leq 1\).Then the probability of the server winning a game when serving from deuce is $$f(p)=\frac{p^{2}}{1-2 p(1-p)}$$,a. Evaluate \(f(0.75)\) and interpret the result. b. Evaluate \(f(0.25)\) and interpret the result. (Source: The College Mathematics Journal 38, 1, Jan 2007).
