Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image shows a set of mathematical questions, with a mix of correct and incorrect responses on a computer interface. Let's address the incorrect response and clarify what might have gone wrong.
The error occurs in Part 6 of 8, which asks to:
- (f) Determine the y-intercept(s) of .
Your answer was given as , but the system shows the correct answer is . The y-intercept is where the function crosses the y-axis, which happens when . So, the correct value of is , not 0. This is likely based on the function rule of , which was not fully visible in the image.
The rest of your responses are correct:
- You found the correct values for , , the zeros of , and the x-intercepts.
- The domain is correctly given as , which means the function is defined for all real numbers.
Do you need further clarification or a breakdown of any specific part?
Here are five related questions to deepen understanding:
- What is the general method to find the y-intercept of a function?
- How can you verify the zeros of a function using a graph or algebraically?
- How does the range of a function relate to its graph?
- Can a function have more than one y-intercept? Why or why not?
- What changes in the domain of a function would restrict its range?
Tip: Always substitute to find the y-intercept, ensuring accuracy when evaluating .
