Written Assignment 6

Answer all assigned exercises, and show all work. An asterisk indicates an exercise for which a graph pool is provided in the assignment submission link.

Refer to graphs A–I on page 238 of the textbook to answer the following questions. [ 18.75 points]

  • Which one is the graph of

    yx

    =

    ? On what interval is it increasing?
    • Which one is the graph of

      ¨

      yx

      =

      ? What is the value of y when x = 1.5?

    • Which graphs of functions decrease over part of the domain and increase over the rest of the domain? On what intervals do they increase? decrease?
