1.1 Four Ways to Represent a Function
1. The functions () = + √2 − and () = + √2 − give exactly the same output values for every input value, so
and are equal.
2. () = 2 −
− 1 = ( − 1)
− 1 = for − 1 6 = 0, so and [where () = ] are not equal because (1) is undefined and
(1) = 1.
3. (a) The point (1 3) is on the graph of , so (1) = 3.
(b) When = −1, is about −02, so (−1) ≈ −02.
(c) () = 1 is equivalent to = 1 When = 1, we have = 0 and = 3.
(d) A reasonable estimate for when = 0 is = −08.
(e) The domain of consists of all -values on the graph of . For this function, the domain is −2 ≤ ≤ 4, or [−2 4].
The range of consists of all -values on the graph of . For this function, the range is −1 ≤ ≤ 3, or [−1 3].
(f ) As increases from −2 to 1, increases from −1 to 3. Thus, is increasing on the interval [−2 1].
4. (a) The point (−4 −2) is on the graph of , so (−4) = −2. The point (3 4) is on the graph of , so (3) = 4.
(b) We are looking for the values of for which the -values are equal. The -values for and are equal at the points
(−2 1) and (2 2), so the desired values of are −2 and 2.
(c) () = −1 is equivalent to = −1. When = −1, we have = −3 and = 4.
(d) As increases from 0 to 4, decreases from 3 to −1. Thus, is decreasing on the interval [0 4].
(e) The domain of consists of all -values on the graph of . For this function, the domain is −4 ≤ ≤ 4, or [−4 4].
The range of consists of all -values on the graph of . For this function, the range is −2 ≤ ≤ 3, or [−2 3].
(f ) The domain of is [−4 3] and the range is [05 4].
5. From Figure 1 in the text, the lowest point occurs at about ( ) = (12 −85). The highest point occurs at about (17 115).
Thus, the range of the vertical ground acceleration is −85 ≤ ≤ 115. Written in interval notation, we get [−85 115].
6. Example 1: A car is driven at 60 mih for 2 hours. The distance
traveled by the car is a function of the time . The domain of the
function is { | 0 ≤ ≤ 2}, where is measured in hours. The range
of the function is { | 0 ≤ ≤ 120}, where is measured in miles.

Example 2: At a certain university, the number of students on
campus at any time on a particular day is a function of the time after
midnight. The domain of the function is { | 0 ≤ ≤ 24}, where is
measured in hours. The range of the function is { | 0 ≤ ≤ },
where is an integer and is the largest number of students on
campus at once.
Example 3: A certain employee is paid $800 per hour and works a
maximum of 30 hours per week. The number of hours worked is
rounded down to the nearest quarter of an hour. This employee’s
gross weekly pay is a function of the number of hours worked .
The domain of the function is [0 30] and the range of the function is
{0 200 400 23800 24000}.

7. No, the curve is not the graph of a function because a vertical line intersects the curve more than once. Hence, the curve fails
the Vertical Line Test.
8. Yes, the curve is the graph of a function because it passes the Vertical Line Test. The domain is [−2 2] and the range
is [−1 2].
9. Yes, the curve is the graph of a function because it passes the Vertical Line Test. The domain is [−3 2] and the range
is [−3 −2) ∪ [−1 3].
10. No, the curve is not the graph of a function since for = 0, ±1, and ±2, there are infinitely many points on the curve.
11. (a) When = 1950, ≈ 138◦C, so the global average temperature in 1950 was about 138◦C.
(b) When = 142◦C, ≈ 1990.
(c) The global average temperature was smallest in 1910 (the year corresponding to the lowest point on the graph) and largest
in 2005 (the year corresponding to the highest point on the graph).
(d) When = 1910, ≈ 135◦C, and when = 2005, ≈ 145◦C. Thus, the range of is about [135, 145].
12. (a) The ring width varies from near 0 mm to about 16 mm, so the range of the ring width function is approximately [0 16].
(b) According to the graph, the earth gradually cooled from 1550 to 1700, warmed into the late 1700s, cooled again into the
late 1800s, and has been steadily warming since then. In the mid-19th century, there was variation that could have been
associated with volcanic eruptions.
13. The water will cool down almost to freezing as the ice melts. Then, when
the ice has melted, the water will slowly warm up to room temperature.
