Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To find the equation for the function x˙=f(x) for the given set of properties. If no such equation exists, reasons for it is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

  • ➢ Fixed points are the points where the function x˙=0.

  • ➢ Using this property of the fixed point, the equation for the stated property can be found.

2. Let a, b be real numbers for which b > a. Let functions f, g, h be defined on a domain [a, b] in the following manner. when x = a; a+b 2 when x = a; f(x) = g(x) = h(x) = (x – a)(x – b). when x > a. when x > a. x-a (a) Sketch a graph of functions f, g, h. (b) Function h is continuous at every point in its domain, but functions f, g are not continuous at x = a. Explain. (c) Function ƒ does not have a maximum value. Explain. (d) Function does not have a minimum value. Explain. (e) Function h attains both a maximum value and a minimum value. The maximum value occurs at the points x = a and x = b; and the minimum value occurs at the point x = a+b 말. Explain.
For each point on the graph of y=f(x), is a corresponding point on the graph of y=√ √ f(x) exists, determine it. (3,-4) a. (3,2) b. (3,-2) c. (3,√2) d. Does not exist
Let us define a number a to be a fixed point of a function f if a = f(a). (For example, if f (x) = -x², then x = -1 is a fixed point because f(–1) = -1.) Prove that if f'(x) # 1 for all numbers x, then f has at most one fixed point.
