Find all solutions to the following equation. Do you get any extraneous solutions? Explain why or why not. 2 2 + x+1x-1 x21 Show all steps in your process. Be sure to state your claim, provide your evidence, and provide your reasoning before submitting.

Directions: For problems 1 through 3, read each question carefully and be sure to show all work. 1. What is the phase shift for y = 2sin(2x-)? 2. What is the amplitude of y = 7cos(2x+л)? 3. What is the period of y = sin(3x-π)? Directions: For problems 4 and 5, you were to compare and contrast the two functions in each problem situation. Be sure to include a discussion of similarities and differences for the periods, amplitudes, y-minimums, y-maximums, and any phase shift between the two graphs. Write in complete sentences. 4. y 3sin(2x) and y = 3cos(2x) 5. y 4sin(2x) and y = cos(3x- -플)

A graph G of order 12 has vertex set V(G) = {c1, c2, …, c12} for the twelve configurations inFigure 1.4. A “move” on this checkerboard corresponds to moving a single coin to anunoccupied square, where(1) the gold coin can only be moved horizontally or diagonally,(2) the silver coin can only be moved vertically or diagonally.Two vertices ci and cj (i ≠ j) are adjacent if it is possible to move ci to cj by a single move. (a) What vertices are adjacent to c1 in G?(c) Draw the subgraph of G induced by {c2, c6, c9, c11}.
