Study Notes

Question 1

Part A: Classifying Numbers

  • Rational numbers in the set are 2, 3 + 2.4, (√5)⁴, and 3.279...
  • Irrational numbers in the set are 3√7, √2, and sin(π/4).

Part B: Solving Inequalities

  • For 4 + 5(1 - 3x) ≥ 2 - 4x, the solution in interval notation is (-∞, 7/11].
  • For x/(x + 2) ≥ 5, the solution in interval notation is (-5/2, -2).
  • For (x² - 5)/(x² - x - 6) + 4/(5(x + 2)) ≥ 4/(5(x - 3)), the solution in interval notation is (-∞, -3)∪(-2, ∞).
  • For √(6x - 5) ≤ x, the solution in interval notation is [1, ∞).

Question 2

Part A: Finding the Domain of Functions

  • For f(x) = (3/x) - (5/(x+1)), the domain is (-∞, -1) ∪ (-1, 0) ∪ (0, ∞).
  • For f(x) = ⁴√(x+1)/(1-x), the domain is [-1, 1).
  • For f(x) = √(2x-6)/(x-5), the domain is [3, 5) ∪ (5, ∞).
  • For f(x) = sin(x)/(x³-x), the domain is (-∞, -1) ∪ (-1, 0) ∪ (0, 1) ∪ (1, ∞).

Part B: Composition of Functions

  • Given f(x) = √(9 - x) and g(x) = √x, the rule of f ∘ g is f(g(x)) = √(9 - √x).
  • The domain of f ∘ g is [0, 81].

Question 3

Part A: Determining if Functions are the Same

  • f(x) = √x²/(x+3) and g(x) = |x|/√(x+3) are not the same functions.

Part B: Determining if Functions are One-to-One

  • f(x) = 3√1 - x⁵ is one-to-one.
  • f(x) = (1 + 5x) / (4 - 7x) is one-to-one.
  • f(x) = sin(x) is not one-to-one.

Part C: Finding the Inverse of a Function

  • Given f(x) = (2x + 3) / (4x - 1), the inverse function f⁻¹(x) = (x + 3) / (4x - 2).
  • The domain of f⁻¹ is R - {1/2}.
  • The range of f⁻¹ is R - {1/4}.

Part D: Function Composition

  • The function g(x) = 3√((2x + 3) / (4x - 1)) can be expressed as a composition of two functions: f(x) = 3√x and h(x) = (2x + 3) / (4x - 1).

Question 4

Part A: Finding Trigonometric Function Values

  • Given tan x = -2 and sec x = √5, the remaining trigonometric functions can be found considering that x is in quadrant IV.

Part B: Verifying a Trigonometric Identity

  • To verify that tan θ + cos θ / (1 + sin θ) = sec θ, manipulate the left-hand side to show it is equal to the right-hand side.

Part C: Finding Exact Values Without a Calculator

  • The exact value of sin⁻¹(sin(5π/6)) is π/6
  • The exact value of cos(π/4 + cos⁻¹(1/3)) is (√2 - 4√3)/6
  • The exact value of sin(sin⁻¹(2/3) + 2sin⁻¹(-1/7)) is (94 - 2√6)/147
