2. (a) Note that √200 = √100 · 2 = 10 √2 and √32 = √16 · 2 = 4 √2. Thus √200 − √32 = 10 √2 − 4 √2 = 6 √2.

(d) (2 + 3)2 = (2 + 3)(2 + 3) = 42 + 6 + 6 + 9 = 42 + 12 + 9.
Note: A quicker way to expand this binomial is to use the formula ( + )2 = 2 + 2 + 2 with = 2 and = 3:
(2 + 3)2 = (2)2 + 2(2)(3) + 32 = 42 + 12 + 9
(e) See Reference Page 1 for the binomial formula ( + )3 = 3 + 32 + 32 + 3. Using it, we get
( + 2)3 = 3 + 32(2) + 3(22) + 23 = 3 + 62 + 12 + 8.
4. (a) Using the difference of two squares formula, 2 − 2 = ( + )( − ), we have
42 − 25 = (2)2 − 52 = (2 + 5)(2 − 5).
(b) Factoring by trial and error, we get 22 + 5 − 12 = (2 − 3)( + 4).
(c) Using factoring by grouping and the difference of two squares formula, we have
3 − 32 − 4 + 12 = 2( − 3) − 4( − 3) = (2 − 4)( − 3) = ( − 2)( + 2)( − 3).
(d) 4 + 27 = (3 + 27) = ( + 3)(2 − 3 + 9)
This last expression was obtained using the sum of two cubes formula, 3 + 3 = ( + )(2 − + 2) with =
and = 3. [See Reference Page 1 in the textbook.]
(e) The smallest exponent on is − 1
2 , so we will factor out −12.

(d) (2 + 3)2 = (2 + 3)(2 + 3) = 42 + 6 + 6 + 9 = 42 + 12 + 9.
Note: A quicker way to expand this binomial is to use the formula ( + )2 = 2 + 2 + 2 with = 2 and = 3:
(2 + 3)2 = (2)2 + 2(2)(3) + 32 = 42 + 12 + 9
(e) See Reference Page 1 for the binomial formula ( + )3 = 3 + 32 + 32 + 3. Using it, we get
( + 2)3 = 3 + 32(2) + 3(22) + 23 = 3 + 62 + 12 + 8.
4. (a) Using the difference of two squares formula, 2 − 2 = ( + )( − ), we have
42 − 25 = (2)2 − 52 = (2 + 5)(2 − 5).
(b) Factoring by trial and error, we get 22 + 5 − 12 = (2 − 3)( + 4).
(c) Using factoring by grouping and the difference of two squares formula, we have

(d) (2 + 3)2 = (2 + 3)(2 + 3) = 42 + 6 + 6 + 9 = 42 + 12 + 9.

are (−∞ −2), (−2 0), (0 1) and (1 ∞). By choosing a single test value from each interval, we see that both intervals

interval that satisfies the inequality.
10. (a) False. In order for the statement to be true, it must hold for all real numbers, so, to show that the statement is false, pick
= 1 and = 2 and observe that (1 + 2)2 6 = 12 + 22. In general, ( + )2 = 2 + 2 + 2.
(b) True as long as and are nonnegative real numbers. To see this, think in terms of the laws of exponents:
√ = ()12 = 1212 = √ √.
(c) False. To see this, let = 1 and = 2, then √12 + 22 6 = 1 + 2.
(d) False. To see this, let = 1 and = 2, then 1 + 1(2)
2 6 = 1 + 1.

Test B Analytic Geometry
1. (a) Using the point (2 −5) and = −3 in the point-slope equation of a line, − 1 = ( − 1), we get
− (−5) = −3( − 2) ⇒ + 5 = −3 + 6 ⇒ = −3 + 1.
(b) A line parallel to the -axis must be horizontal and thus have a slope of 0. Since the line passes through the point (2 −5),
the -coordinate of every point on the line is −5, so the equation is = −5.
(c) A line parallel to the -axis is vertical with undefined slope. So the -coordinate of every point on the line is 2 and so the
equation is = 2.
(d) Note that 2 − 4 = 3 ⇒ −4 = −2 + 3 ⇒ = 1

4 . Thus the slope of the given line is = 1
2 . Hence, the
slope of the line we’re looking for is also 1
2 (since the line we’re looking for is required to be parallel to the given line).
So the equation of the line is − (−5) = 1
2 ( − 2) ⇒ + 5 = 1
2 − 1 ⇒ = 1
2 − 6.
2. First we’ll find the distance between the two given points in order to obtain the radius, , of the circle:
= [3 − (−1)]2 + (−2 − 4)2 = 42 + (−6)2 = √52. Next use the standard equation of a circle,
( − )2 + ( − )2 = 2, where ( ) is the center, to get ( + 1)2 + ( − 4)2 = 52.
(c) The inequality ( − 1)( + 2) 0 has critical values of −2 0 and 1. The corresponding possible intervals of solution
are (−∞ −2), (−2 0), (0 1) and (1 ∞). By choosing a single test value from each interval, we see that both intervals
(−2 0) and (1 ∞) satisfy the inequality. Thus, the solution is the union of these two intervals: (−2 0) ∪ (1 ∞).
(d) | − 4| 3 ⇔ −3 − 4 3 ⇔ 1 7. In interval notation, the answer is (1 7).
(e) 2 − 3
+ 1 ≤ 1 ⇔ 2 − 3
+ 1 − 1 ≤ 0 ⇔ 2 − 3
+ 1 − + 1
+ 1 ≤ 0 ⇔ 2 − 3 − − 1
+ 1 ≤ 0 ⇔ − 4
+ 1 ≤ 0.
Now, the expression − 4
+ 1 may change signs at the critical values = −1 and = 4, so the possible intervals of solution
are (−∞ −1), (−1 4], and [4 ∞). By choosing a single test value from each interval, we see that (−1 4] is the only
interval that satisfies the inequality.
10. (a) False. In order for the statement to be true, it must hold for all real numbers, so, to show that the statement is false, pick

1. (a) Using the point (2 −5) and = −3 in the point-slope equation of a line, − 1 = ( − 1), we get
− (−5) = −3( − 2) ⇒ + 5 = −3 + 6 ⇒ = −3 + 1.
(b) A line parallel to the -axis must be horizontal and thus have a slope of 0. Since the line passes through the point (2 −5),
the -coordinate of every point on the line is −5, so the equation is = −5.
(c) A line parallel to the -axis is vertical with undefined slope. So the -coordinate of every point on the line is 2 and so the
equation is = 2.
(d) Note that 2 − 4 = 3 ⇒ −4 = −2 + 3 ⇒ = 1
2 − 3
4 . Thus the slope of the given line is = 1
2 . Hence, the
slope of the line we’re looking for is also 1
2 (since the line we’re looking for is required to be parallel to the given line).
So the equation of the line is − (−5) = 1
2 ( − 2) ⇒ + 5 = 1
2 − 1 ⇒ = 1

2. First we’ll find the distance between the two given points in order to obtain the radius, , of the circle:

3. We must rewrite the equation in standard form in order to identify the center and radius. Note that
2 + 2 − 6 + 10 + 9 = 0 ⇒ 2 − 6 + 9 + 2 + 10 = 0. For the left-hand side of the latter equation, we
factor the first three terms and complete the square on the last two terms as follows: 2 − 6 + 9 + 2 + 10 = 0 ⇒
( − 3)2 + 2 + 10 + 25 = 25 ⇒ ( − 3)2 + ( + 5)2 = 25. Thus, the center of the circle is (3 −5) and the radius is 5.

perpendicular bisector passes through (−1 −4) and has slope 3
4 [the slope is obtained by taking the negative reciprocal of
the answer from part (a)]. So the perpendicular bisector is given by + 4 = 3
4 [ − (−1)] or 3 − 4 = 13.
(f ) The center of the required circle is the midpoint of , and the radius is half the length of , which is 10. Thus, the

describes the points that lie on or between the lines = −1 and = 3.
(b) Note that the given inequalities can be written as −4 4 and −2 2,

2. () = 2 −
− 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].

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. 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.
6. 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].

(b) The graph shows an overall decline in global temperatures from 1500 to 1700, followed by an overall rise in temperatures.
The fluctuations in temperature in the mid and late 19th century are reflective of the cooling effects caused by several large
volcanic eruptions.
11. If we draw the horizontal line pH = 40 we can see that the pH curve is less than 4.0 between 12:23 AM and 12:52 AM .
Therefore, a clinical acid reflux episode occurred approximately between 12:23 AM and 12:52 AM at which time the esophageal
pH was less than 40
12. The graphs indicate that tadpoles raised in densely populated regions take longer to put on weight. This is sensible since more
crowding leads to fewer resources available for each tadpole.
13. (a) At 30 ◦S and 20 ◦N, we expect approximately 100 and 134 ant species respectively.
(b) By drawing the horizontal line at a species richness of 100, we see there are two points of intersection with the curve, each
having latitude values of roughly 30 ◦N and 30 ◦S.
(c) The function is even since its graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
14. 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}.

dropped to about 120 pounds for the next 5 years, then increased rapidly to about 170 pounds. The next 30 years saw a gradual
increase to 190 pounds. Possible reasons for the drop in weight at 30 years of age: diet, exercise, health problems.
16. Initially, the person’s forward moving heel contacts the ground resulting in a ground reaction force in the opposite or negative
direction. In moving from heel-strike to toe-off, the foot transitions from a forward push to a backward push. Hence, the
ground reaction force switches from a negative value to a positive value, becoming zero at some point in between.

43. () = 2 + 2 is defined for all real numbers, so the domain is R, or

coefficient of 2 is positive. To find the -intercepts, let = 0 and solve
for . 0 = 2 + 2 = (2 + ) ⇒ = 0 or = −2. The -coordinate of
the vertex is halfway between the -intercepts, that is, at = −1. Since

parabola, we’ll substitute 4 for and 2 for to find . 2 = (4 − 3)2 ⇒ = 2, so an equation is () = 2( − 3)2.
The -intercept of the parabola on the right is (0 1), so an equation is = 2 + + 1. Since the points (−2 2) and

2 · (2) + (1) gives us 6 = −6 ⇒ = −1. F rom(2), −1 + = −35 ⇒ = −25, so an equation

The -intercept of the parabola on the right is (0 1), so an equation is = 2 + + 1. Since the points (−2 2) and

6 = (1)(2)(−1) ⇒ −2 = 6 ⇒ = −3, so an equation for is () = −3( + 1)( − 2).

4 ): Start with the graph of = tan , shift
4 units to the right, and then compress vertically by a factor of 4.
21. This is just like the solution to Example 4 except the amplitude of the curve (the 30◦N curve in Figure 9 on June 21) is
14 − 12 = 2. So the function is () = 12 + 2 sin 2
365 ( − 80). March 31 is the 90th day of the year, so the model gives
(90) ≈ 1234 h. The daylight time (5:51 AM to 6:18 PM ) is 12 hours and 27 minutes, or 1245 h. The model value differs
from the actual value by 1245−1234
1245 ≈ 0009, less than 1%.
22. Using a sine function to model the brightness of Delta Cephei as a function of time, we take its period to be 54 days, its
amplitude to be 035 (on the scale of magnitude), and its average magnitude to be 40. If we take = 0 at a time of average
brightness, then the magnitude (brightness) as a function of time in days can be modeled by the formula
() = 40 + 035 sin 2
54 .
23. Let () be the water depth in meters at hours after midnight. Apply the following transformations to the cosine function:
• Vertical stretch by factor 5 since the amplitude needs to be 12−2
2 = 5 m
• Horizontal stretch by factor 12
2 = 6
since the period needs to be 12 h
• Vertical shift 7 units upward since the function ranges between 2 and 12 which has a midpoint of 12+2
2 = 7 m
• Horizontal shift 675 units to right to position the maximum at = 675 h (6:45AM)
Combining these transformations gives the water depth function () = 5 cos
6 ( − 675) + 7
24. Let () be the total volume of air in mL after seconds. Because the respiratory cycle is periodic, a sine function can be used
as a model by applying the following transformations:
• Vertical stretch by factor 250 since the amplitude needs to be 500
2 = 250 mL
• Horizontal stretch by factor 4
2 = 2
since the period needs to be 4 s
• Vertical shift 2250 units upward since the function ranges between 2000 and 2500 which has a midpoint of
2000+2500
2 = 2250 mL
Combining these transformations gives the volume function () = 250 sin
2 + 2250
25. Let () be the gene frequency after years. The gene frequency dynamics can be modeled using a sine function with the
following transformations:
• Vertical stretch by factor 30 since the amplitude needs to be 80−20
2 = 30%
• Horizontal stretch by factor 3
2 since the period needs to be 3 years
• Vertical shift 50 units upward since the function ranges between 80 and 20 which has a midpoint of 80+20
2 = 50
Combining these transformations gives the gene frequency function () = 30 sin 2
3 + 50
26. Let () be the density of neutrophils in cells/L after days. The density is periodic and can be modeled using a cosine
function with the following transformations:
• Vertical stretch by factor 1000 since the amplitude needs to be 2000−0
2 = 1000
• Horizontal stretch by factor 21
2 since the period needs to be 21 days (or 3 weeks)
• Vertical shift 1000 units upward since the function ranges between 0 and 2000 which has a midpoint of 2000+0
2 = 1000
Combining these transformations gives the density function () = 1000 cos 2 + 1000
20. = 1
4 tan( −
4 ): Start with the graph of = tan , shift
4 units to the right, and then compress vertically by a factor of 4.
21. This is just like the solution to Example 4 except the amplitude of the curve (the 30◦N curve in Figure 9 on June 21) is
14 − 12 = 2. So the function is () = 12 + 2 sin 2

(90) ≈ 1234 h. The daylight time (5:51 AM to 6:18 PM ) is 12 hours and 27 minutes, or 1245 h. The model value differs
from the actual value by 1245−1234
1245 ≈ 0009, less than 1%.
22. Using a sine function to model the brightness of Delta Cephei as a function of time, we take its period to be 54 days, its
amplitude to be 035 (on the scale of magnitude), and its average magnitude to be 40. If we take = 0 at a time of average
brightness, then the magnitude (brightness) as a function of time in days can be modeled by the formula
() = 40 + 035 sin 2
54 .
23. Let () be the water depth in meters at hours after midnight. Apply the following transformations to the cosine function:
• Vertical stretch by factor 5 since the amplitude needs to be 12−2
2 = 5 m
• Horizontal stretch by factor 12
2 = 6
since the period needs to be 12 h
• Vertical shift 7 units upward since the function ranges between 2 and 12 which has a midpoint of 12+2
2 = 7 m
• Horizontal shift 675 units to right to position the maximum at = 675 h (6:45AM)
Combining these transformations gives the water depth function () = 5 cos
6 ( − 675) + 7
24. Let () be the total volume of air in mL after seconds. Because the respiratory cycle is periodic, a sine function can be used
as a model by applying the following transformations:
• Vertical stretch by factor 250 since the amplitude needs to be 500
2 = 250 mL
• Horizontal stretch by factor 4
2 = 2
since the period needs to be 4 s
• Vertical shift 2250 units upward since the function ranges between 2000 and 2500 which has a midpoint of
2000+2500
2 = 2250 mL
Combining these transformations gives the volume function () = 250 sin
2 + 2250
25. Let () be the gene frequency after years. The gene frequency dynamics can be modeled using a sine function with the
following transformations:
• Vertical stretch by factor 30 since the amplitude needs to be 80−20
2 = 30%
• Horizontal stretch by factor 3
2 since the period needs to be 3 years
• Vertical shift 50 units upward since the function ranges between 80 and 20 which has a midpoint of 80+20
2 = 50
Combining these transformations gives the gene frequency function () = 30 sin 2
3 + 50
26. Let () be the density of neutrophils in cells/L after days. The density is periodic and can be modeled using a cosine
function with the following transformations:
• Vertical stretch by factor 1000 since the amplitude needs to be 2000−0
2 = 1000
• Horizontal stretch by factor 21
2 since the period needs to be 21 days (or 3 weeks)
• Vertical shift 1000 units upward since the function ranges between 0 and 2000 which has a midpoint of 2000+0
2 = 1000
Combining these transformations gives the density function () = 1000 cos 2 + 1000
