Use a graphing utility to graph the equation. Use a standard setting. Approximate any intercepts. $$y=x \sqrt{x+6}$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The function \(y = x \sqrt{x+6}\) has one intercept at (0,0).

Step by step solution

01

Determine X-intercepts

When y = 0, solve the equation \(0 = x \sqrt{x+6}\). This either implies x = 0, or \(\sqrt{x+6} = 0\), which further leads to \(x = -6\). Note, since x should be greater or equal to -6 as it is in the domain of \(sqrt{x+6}\), only x = 0 is valid.
02

Determine Y-intercept

The y-intercept is found when x = 0. Plug x = 0 in the equation, yield \(y = 0* \sqrt{0+6}\), which gives y = 0.
03

Plot the Function and Intercepts

Plot the function \(y = x \sqrt{x+6}\) using a graphing utility. Make sure to mark the intercepts found in the previous steps (0,0). The function increases gradually after x = 0.

Find a mathematical model that represents the statement. (Determine the constant of proportionality.) \(F\) is jointly proportional to \(r\) and the third power of \(s\) \((F=4158 \text { when } r=11 \text { and } s=3 .)\)

Sketch the graph of the function. $$g(x)=[[x-3]]$$

The table shows the numbers of tax returns (in millions) made through e-file from 2003 through \(2010 .\) Let \(f(t)\) represent the number of tax returns made through e-file in the year \(t .\) (Source: Internal Revenue Service) $$\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline \text { Year } & \text { Number of Tax Returns Made Through E-File } \\\\\hline 2003 & 52.9 \\\2004 & 61.5 \\\2005 & 68.5 \\\2006 & 73.3 \\\2007 & 80.0 \\\2008 & 89.9 \\\2009 & 95.0 \\\2010 & 98.7 \\\\\hline\end{array}$$ (a) Find \(\frac{f(2010)-f(2003)}{2010-2003}\) and interpret the result in the context of the problem. (b) Make a scatter plot of the data. (c) Find a linear model for the data algebraically. Let \(N\) represent the number of tax returns made through e-file and let \(t=3\) correspond to 2003 (d) Use the model found in part (c) to complete the table. $$\begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|}\hline t & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 \\\\\hline N & & & & & & & & \\ \hline\end{array}$$ (e) Compare your results from part (d) with the actual data. (f) Use a graphing utility to find a linear model for the data. Let \(x=3\) correspond to \(2003 .\) How does the model you found in part (c) compare with the model given by the graphing utility?

Use a graphing utility to graph the function. Be sure to choose an appropriate viewing window. $$f(x)=(x-1)^{3}+2$$

Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. Every function is a relation.
