- Use the Vertical Line Test to determine whether the graph represents y as a function of x.arrow_forwardFor the fallowing exercises, find the x- and y-intercepts of the graphs of each function. 11. f(x)=2x+1+6arrow_forwardUse the graph of the function f to find (a) the domain of f, (b) the function values f(0) and f(3) and (c) the range of f.arrow_forward
- Fill in the blanks. When fxbas x, y=bis a of the graph of f.arrow_forwardTo graph the function f, we plot the points (x,) in a coordinate plane. To graph f(x)=x22, we plot the points (x,). So the point (3,) is on the graph of f. The height of the graph of f above the x-axis when x=3 is _______. Complete the table, and sketch a graph of f. x f(x) (x,y) 2 1 0 1 2arrow_forwardThe graph of fx=1/x is a .arrow_forward
- A ball is thrown in the air from the top of a building.Its height, in meters above ground, as a function of time, in seconds, is given by h(t)=4.9t2+24t+8. How long does it take to reach maximum height?arrow_forwardSketch the graph of fx=5e0.17x.arrow_forwardHow do the graphs of the functions f(x)=x2 and f(x)=x21 differ? We graphed them at the start of this section. What is the difference between their graphs? How are their graphs the same?arrow_forward
