Question 7

a) f(x) = x

Solution:

Taking co-ordinates for x and f(x)

x 0 2 -2 4 -4

f(x) 0 2 -2 4 -4

b) g(x) = x2

Solution:

x 0 -1 1 -2 2

g(x) 0 1 1 4 -4

Question 8

a) y = sinx

Solution

x 0 π/2 π 3π/2 2π -π/2 -π -3π/2 -2π

y 0 1 0 -1 0 -1 0 1 0

e) y = 1/x

Solution

x 1 2 3 1/2 -1 -2 -3 -1/2
4

y 1 1/2 1/3 2 -1 -1/2 -1/3 2

h) y = tan-1x

Solution

First for y=tanx,

x -π/2 -π/4 0 π/4 π/2

y -∞ -1 0 1 ∞

Now, in inverse trigonometric function, the domain and range are interchanged. Meaning that x-

axis is now the range and y-axis is the domain.

x -∞ -1 0 1 ∞

y -π/2 -π/4 0 π/4 π/2

Question 13

Solution

The inverse sine function f(x)=sin-1x is defined as the function in which sin-1x function returns

the angle whose sine is equal to the given value of x.

Domain: The domain of sin-1x function is the closed interval [-1, 1], which means that it is

defined for values of x that lie between -1 and 1, including both -1 and 1.

Range: The range of the inverse sine function is the closed interval [-π/2, π/2], which means that

the values of f(x) will always fall between -π/2 and π/2 or -90° and 90° .

Exercise

Question 3

Solution

We have, f(x) = x2 - 2x + 3

Substituting the function f(x) into the expression [f(a + h) - f(a)]/h


6

= [(a + h)2 − 2(a + h) + 3 − (a2 − 2a +3)]/h

= (a2 + 2ah+ h2 – 2a -2h + 3 - a2 + 2a -3)/h

= (2ah + h2 – 2h)/h

= (h2 + 2ah – 2h)/h

= h(h + 2a -2)/h

= 2a + h - 2

Therefore, the difference quotient simplifies to 2a + h – 2.

Question 12

Solution

We have, f(x) = (x – 3)2

The graph of f(x) is the standard graph of y = x2 changed with transformations.

The graph of y = x2 is a parabola that opens upward and has its vertex at the origin (0, 0).

Now, the transformation f(x) = (x – 3)2 involves the following changes.


7

a) Horizontal Shift: 3 units right (positive) on x-axis as there’s 3 units subtraction inside the

parenthesis.

b) Vertical Stretch or Compression: There's no coefficient multiplying the x2, so there’s no

vertical stretch or compression.

c) Vertical Shift: There's no addition or subtraction outside the parentheses, so there is no vertical

shift.

Now, we can sketch these transformations into the graph

The graph of f(x) = (x – 3)2 is a parabola that opens upward and has its vertex at (3, 0).

Question 15

Solution

We have, g(x) = 1 + cos 2x

The graph of g(x) is the standard graph of y = cosx changed with transformations.
8

The graph of y = cosx is a cosine function that oscillates between -1 and 1, with its maximum at

x=0 and repeating every 2pi radians.

Now, the transformation g(x) = 1 + cos 2x involves the following changes:

a) Amplitude: The amplitude of the cosine function remains 1, as there's no coefficient

multiplying cos2x.

b) Frequency: The frequency of the cosine function is doubled because of the angle x is

multiplied by 2. This means that the period of the function is halved, so it repeats every pi

radians instead of 2pi.

c) Vertical Shift: There's a vertical shift of 1 unit upward because of the +1 outside the cosine

function.

Now, we can sketch these transformations into the graph

Question 21 a

Solution

We have, f(x) = ln x

and g(x) = x2 – 9

Now substituting values, gof(x) = g(f(x))

= g(ln x)

= (ln x)2 – 9

Now, finding the domain of gof(x)

= gof(x) > 0

= (ln x)2 – 9 > 0

= (ln x)2 >= 9

= ln x > =3 or ln x>= -3

Therefore, x >= e2 or x>= e-2

Thus, x ∈ ( 0, e2] U [ e-2, ∞) = (0, ∞)
