Revision On chapter 2
Part one:
Is y a function of x?

9y-3x-4 =0
Y=f(x); (x,y) = (-1,2), (0,3), (1,4), ( 2, 5)
X=2y2

Part Two:
Find the function values for each function:

G(x)=|x-3|; g(10), g(3), g(-3)

F(x)= 4 if x0
3 if x<0
F (3), F (-4), F (0)

Part Three:
State (a) degree and (b) the leading coefficient of the given polynomial:

F(x)=7x3-2x2+6
Part Four:

1) Investment. If a principal of P dollars is invested at a simple annual

interest rate of r for t years, express the total accumulated amount of
the principal and interest as a function of t. Is your result a linear
function of t?

2) Business. A manufacturer determines that the total number of units

of output per day, q, is a function of the number of employees, m,
where

(40m m 2 )
q f (m)
4

The total revenue r that is received for selling q units is given by

the function g, where r = g(q) = 40q. Find (gof)(m). What does this
composite function describe?

Part Five:

Composite problem:
F (P) = 4/p and G (p) = p-2/3 find both (FoG) (P) and (GoF) (P)

Case- Defined word problem:

Sales. To encourage large group sales, a theater charges two rates. If your group
is less than 12, each ticket costs $9.50. If your group is 12 or more, each ticket
costs $8.75. Write a case-defined function to represent the cost of buying n
tickets
