Use the graph of π to determine the following.
The domain of π: functionsequation editor
The range of π: functionsequation editor
Note: Use INF or -INF for β or ββ, respectively. Make sure your answer is in interval notation. Enter "{ }" without quotes if there is no solution (the empty set). Use the letter U for union. e.g., an answer of π₯<2 or π₯β₯6 should be entered as (-inf,2) U [6,inf), etc.
The zeros of π: {functionsequation editor }
π(0)= functionsequation editor
The interval(s) on which π is increasing: functionsequation editor
The interval(s) on which π is decreasing: functionsequation editor
Note: Use INF or -INF for β or ββ, respectively. Make sure your answer is in interval notation. Enter "NONE" without quotes if there are no intervals where the function is decreasing, increasing, or constant. Separate multiple intervals with a comma. e.g., if the function is decreasing on both (2,3) and (4,5), then your answer would be (2,3),(4,5).
The values of π₯ for which π(π₯)β₯0: functionsequation editor
The number at which π has a relative minimum: functionsequation editor
The relative minimum of π: functionsequation editor
The value of π₯ for which π(π₯)=β9 is: functionsequation editor
Is π(β3) positive or negative?
A. Positive B. Negative
Solution
Let's analyze the graph to answer the questions step-by-step.
1. Domain of :
The domain is the set of all possible -values for which the function is defined. Looking at the graph, we see that the function extends infinitely in both directions for . Therefore, the domain is:
2. Range of :
The range is the set of all possible -values. The function seems to go infinitely upwards as decreases and has a minimum point at . Therefore, the range is:
3. Zeros of :
The zeros of the function are the points where the graph crosses the -axis. From the graph, this happens at and . Thus, the zeros are:
4. :
To find , look at the value of the function when . From the graph, .
5. Intervals where is Increasing:
The function is increasing when its graph moves upwards as we move from left to right. From the graph, is increasing on two intervals:
6. Intervals where is Decreasing:
The function is decreasing when its graph moves downwards as we move from left to right. From the graph, is decreasing on the interval:
7. Values of for which :
is non-negative (i.e., ) where the graph is on or above the -axis. This occurs in two intervals:
8. Number at which has a Relative Minimum:
The relative minimum is the lowest point on the graph within a certain interval. The graph shows a relative minimum at .
9. Relative Minimum of :
The relative minimum value of at is .
10. Value of for which :
The function reaches at . So, the value of is:
11. Is Positive or Negative?
At , the graph is above the -axis, which means is positive.
Answer: A. Positive
