Step 2

Let’s examine the transformations applied to the function $f(x)=-|x+2|+3$

The range of $y=|x|$ is the set of non-negative numbers, $ygeq 0$.

A horizontal translation 2 units to the right $y=|x-2|$ will not change the range.

Reflecting the function in the $x$-axis $y=-|x-2|$ will make the range $yleq 0$.

A vertical translation 3 units up $y=-|x-2|+3$ will make the range $yleq 3$

Therefore, the answer is option (a)

We can also confirm this by graphing.

Exercise 5
Step 1
1 of 6
We shall evaluate the pair of functions.

i) $h(x)=(x+6)(x+3)(x-6)$

$=(x+3)(x+6)(x-6)$

$=(x+3)(x^2-36)$

$b(x)=(x+3)(x^2-36)$

$therefore$ equivalent

Step 2

ii) Remember that $(a+b)^3=a^3+3a^2b+3ab^2+b^3$

$b(t)=(3t+2)^3$

$(3t)^3+3(3t)^2(2)+3(3t)(2)^2+2^3$

$b(t)=27t^3+3(9)(2)t^2+3(3)(4)t+8$

$b(t)=27t^3+54t^2+36t+8$

$c(t)=27t^3+54t^2+36t+8$

$therefore$ equivalent

iii) Remember that $(-a)^3=-a^3$

$bold{Concept:}$ An algebraic expression has restrictions on values that would make the denominator equal to zero.
Step 2

$bold{Solution:}$ Since the restrictions $yneq -1,0,dfrac{1}{2}$

The denominators (or terms after “$div$” ) should not contain

$(y+1)$ , $y$ and $(2y-1)$ which would make denominators equal to zero.

$bold{Concept:}$ For a quadratic equation in standard form $f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$, the vertex is $(h,k)$ where

$h=-dfrac{b}{2a}$

$$
k=f(h)
$$

Step 2

$bold{Solution:}$ In this case, $a=3$, $b=-6$, $c=15$

$h=-dfrac{b}{2a}=-dfrac{-6}{2(3)}=1$

Exercise 11
Step 1
1 of 3
$bold{Concept:}$ The maximum height of a parabola opening down with vertex$(h,k)$ is k.

From the standard form $y=ax^2+bx+c$, the vertex can be obtained as

$h=-dfrac{b}{2a}$

$$
k=f(h)
$$

Step 2
2 of 3
$bold{Solution:}$ Here, we are given with the standard form

$h(t)=0.8+29.4t-4.9t^2$

$a=-4.9$ , $b=29.4$ , $c=0.8$

Calculate the coordinates of the vertex

$h=-dfrac{b}{2a}=-dfrac{29.4}{2(-4.9)}=3$

$k=f(3)=0.8+29.4(3)-4.9(3^2)=44.9$ m

Therefore, the maximum height is $44.9$ m

The answer is option (c)

Exercise 12
Step 1
1 of 4
$bold{Concept:}$ Profit function $P(x)$ is the difference between the revenue function $R(x)$ and the cost function $C(x)$.

The revenue function is the product of the price per item $P(x)$ and the number of items sold $x$.

Step 2
2 of 4
$bold{Solution:}$ Let $x$ be the number of occupied seats (no. of passengers)

cost function: $C(x)=225+30x$

price function: $P(x)=60+5(22-x)$

revenue function: $R(x)=xcdot P(x)=x[60+5(22-x)]$

profit function: $P(x)=R(x)-C(x)=x[60+5(22-x)]-(225+30x)$

Step 3
3 of 4
Simplify the profit function.

$P(x)=60x+5x(22-x)-225-30x$

$P(x)=60x+110x-5x^2-225-30x$

$P(x)=-5x^2+80x-1155$

The value of $x$ that maximizes the $P(x)$ is at the vertex $(h,k)$ where

$h=-dfrac{b}{2a}$

$a=-5$, $b=80$ , $c=335$

$h=-dfrac{80}{2(-5)}=8$

Thus, the bus should run with $8$ occupied seats.

Exercise 13
Step 1
1 of 2
a) This is in standard form so we can easily calculate $b^2-4ac$

$b^2-4ac=(-6)^2-4(-1)(-9)=0implies$ 1 zero

b) This is in vertex form, $y=a(x-h)^2+k$, if $a$ and $k$ has the same sign, there will be no solutions. If it has different sign, then there are two solutions. If $k=0implies$ 1 solution

In this case, $a=4$ and $k=0.5$ which are both positive, thus, no zeros.

(c) This is vertex form with $k=0$. Thus the vertex is at the $x$-axis and only 1 zero.

(d) This is in vertex form with $a=-2$ and $k=4.1$. Since they have different sign, this would result in 2 zeros.

Therefore, the answer is option (d)

Exercise 14
Step 1
1 of 3
$bold{Concept:}$ If a quadratic function touches the $x$-axis at one point, the vertex is at $x$-axis and $b^2-4ac=0$.
Step 2
2 of 3
$bold{Solution:}$ $f(x)=x^2-kx+k+8$

$a=1$, $b=-k$ , $c=k+8$

$b^2-4ac=(-k)^2-4(1)(k+8)=0$

$k^2-4k-32=0$

$(k-8)(k+4)=0$

$k=8$ or $k=-4$

Exercise 15
Step 1
1 of 2
$bold{Concept:}$ To find the inverse, solve for $x$ in terms of $y$ then swap the variables. The domain of $f(x)$ will be the range of $f^{-1}(x)$ while the range of $f(x)$ will be the domain of $f^{-1}(x)$

$bold{Solution:}$

$y=2(x-3)^2+5$

$y-5=2(x-3)^2$

$(x-3)^2=dfrac{y-5}{2}$

$x-3=pmsqrt{dfrac{y-5}{2}}$

$x=3pmsqrt{dfrac{y-5}{2}}$

Swap the variables

$y=3pmsqrt{dfrac{x-5}{2}}$

The range of $f^{-1}$ must be the domain of $f(x)$ which is $xgeq 3$. Thus the range of $f^{-1}$ must be $ygeq 3$ so we shall choose only one branch.

$f^{-1}=3+sqrt{dfrac{x-5}{2}}$

Now, the domain of $f^{-1}$ is the range of $f(x)$. The function $f(x)$ opens up with vertex$(3,5)$ so its range is $ygeq 5$. Therefore, the domain of $f^{-1}$ is $xgeq 5$

The answer is

$y=3+sqrt{dfrac{x-5}{2}}$ , $xgeq 5$

$bold{Solution:}$ Notice that options (a) , (b) and (c) all contains $y^2$ which implies for some value of $x$, $y$ can take either positive or negative value. This is not a characteristic of a function. Thus, the answer is option (c) which is a quadratic function.

b) This is true. Input values are usually denoted as $x$.

c) $y=3x+5$ is a linear function, a type of function.

d) For functions containing ordered pairs $(x,y)$, each value of $x$ should have a unique value of $y$, which is true for the given set. Thus, this is true. Note that it is possible that many values of $x$ can have the same value of $y$ but it is not possible the any value of $x$ can have two or more values of $y$

Exercise 21
Step 1
1 of 2
The inverse of a function $y=g(x)$ can be obtained by solving for $x$ in terms of $y$ then swap the variables.

First convert the standard form to vertex form by completing the square

$y=x^2-5x-6$

$y=left(x^2-5x+dfrac{25}{4}right)-6-dfrac{25}{4}$

$y=left(x-dfrac{5}{2}right)^2-dfrac{49}{4}$

Now, solve for $x$ in terms of $y$

$left(x-dfrac{5}{2}right)^2=y+dfrac{49}{4}$

$x-dfrac{5}{2}=pmsqrt{y+dfrac{49}{4}}$

$x=dfrac{5}{2}pmsqrt{y+dfrac{49}{4}}$

Swap the variables
$y=dfrac{5}{2}pmsqrt{x+dfrac{49}{4}}$

c) This is true as mentioned in part(a)

Exercise 24
Step 1

We are given with $y=f(x)=sqrt{x-1}$

To find the inverse, swap the variables and solve for $y$

$x=sqrt{y-1}$

$x^2=y-1$

$y=x^2+1$

Now, the domain of $f^{-1}(x)$ is the range of $f(x)$

The range of $f(x)$ is ${ yinbold{R};|;ygeq 0}$

Therefore, the inverse function must be

$f^{-1}(x)=x^2+1$ , $xgeq 0$

There must be a typo error in the choices but the closest one is option (c)

Exercise 33
Step 1
1 of 4
a) This is a quadratic function so we know that its domain is ${ xinbold{R}}$. We also learned that for a quadratic function $y=a(x-h)^2+k$ with vertex $(h,k)$, the range is

${ yinbold{R};|; ygeq k}$ if $a>0$

${ yinbold{R};|;yleq k}$ if $a0$ (opens upward), the range is

range = ${ yinbold{R};|;ygeq 2}$

With the known vertex, we can write the quadratic function in vertex form

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

$y=3(x-4)^2+2$

From the vertex form, we can obtain the transformations from the base function $y=x^2$

(1) vertical stretching by factor 3 $implies y=3x^2$

(2) translation 4 units to the right and 2 units up $implies y=3(x-4)^2+2$

Exercise scan

Step 2
2 of 4
b) $g(x)=5-2sqrt{3x+6}$

This is the lower half of a parabola that opens to the right. The domain is restricted to values of $x$ that will make the expression inside the radical sign greater than or equal to zero.

$3x+6geq 0implies 3xgeq -6 implies xgeq -2$

domain = ${ xinbold{R};|;xgeq -2}$

Since this function is decreasing, the maximum value is when the radicand is zero $(x=-2)$ which corresponds to $g(x)=5$

range = ${ yinbold{R};|;yleq 5}$

The transformations from the base function $y=sqrt{x}$ can be observed by rewriting as

$g(x)=5-2sqrt{3(x+2)}$

(1) horizontal compression by factor $dfrac{1}{3}implies y=sqrt{3x}$

(2) reflecting in $x$-axis $implies y=-sqrt{3x}$

(3) vertical stretching by factor 2 $implies y=-2sqrt{3x}$

It has undergone the following transformation from the base function $y=dfrac{1}{x}$

(1) horizontal stretching by a factor of $3implies y=dfrac{1}{frac{1}{3}x}$

(2) translation 6 units to the right and 2 units down $y=dfrac{1}{frac{1}{3}(x-6)}-2$

Exercise 34
Step 1
1 of 3
Sacha walks 1.4 km/h faster than Jill.
Let $v$ be the speed of Jill, then $v+1.4$ is the speed of Sacha.
Let $t$ be the time spent by Jill. Since Sacha stopped for 20 min $left(text{equal to } frac{1}{3};text{hour}right)$ and finished the walk 2 hour ahead of Jill, her time spent on walking is $t-left(2+frac{1}{3}right)=t-frac{7}{3}$.

We also know that

$$
begin{equation*}text{distance} = text{speed} times text{time}end{equation*}
$$

Both of them must cover the same distance of 30 km.

distance covered by Jill: $vt=30 implies t=dfrac{30}{v}$

distance covered by Sacha: $(v+1.4)left(t-frac{7}{3}right)=30$

$(v+1.4)left(dfrac{30}{v}-dfrac{7}{3}right)=30$

By solving graphically, we get $v=3.6$ km/h

Step 2
2 of 3
Jill’s speed: 3.6 km/h

Jill’s time: $dfrac{30}{3.6}=8frac{1}{3}$ hr or 8 hours and 20 minutes

Sacha’s speed: 3.6+1.4= 5 km/h

Sacha’s time: $8frac{1}{3}-frac{7}{3}=6$ h or (6 hours and 20 minutes including the time she talked with friend)

Result
3 of 3
Jill’s speed: 3.6 km/h

Jill’s time: 8 hours and 20 minutes

Sacha’s speed: 5 km/h

Sacha’s time: 6 hours and 20 minutes including the time she talked with friend

Exercise 35
Step 1
1 of 4
Let $x$ be the number of times the price is increased by $$50$. There are 2 students who will not join every time that price is increased by 50.

Students: $25-2x$

Selling Price = $550+50x$

Income = Students $times$ Price = $(25-2x)(550+50x)$

Cost: $5500+240x$

Profit = Income $-$ Cost = $(25-2x)(550+50x)-(5500+240x)$

Step 2
2 of 4
a) The break even is the value of $x$ when Profit $=0$, that is, the zeros of the quadratic function. By graphical approach, we get $x=8.64$ which means $25-2(8.64)=7.72approx 8$ students

Step 3
3 of 4
b) From the graph, the maximum occurs close to zero, hence, he could maximize the profit if he does not change the price and maintain at $$550$
Result
4 of 4
a) 8 students

b) $$550$
