6. a) For x-values from 1 to 4, the y-values increase from 2
to 11. Thus the function is increasing on the interval
(1, 4).
Exercise Set 2.1
1. a) For x-values from โ5 to 1, the y-values increase from
โ3 to 3. Thus the function is increasing on the
interval (โ5, 1).
b) For x-values from 3 to 5, the y-values decrease from
3 to 1. Thus the function is decreasing on the interval (3, 5).
c) For x-values from 1 to 3, y is 3. Thus the function
is constant on (1, 3).
2. a) For x-values from 1 to 3, the y-values increase from 1
to 2. Thus, the function is increasing on the interval
(1, 3).
b) For x-values from โ5 to 1, the y-values decrease
from 4 to 1. Thus the function is decreasing on the
interval (โ5, 1).
c) For x-values from 3 to 5, y is 2. Thus the function
is constant on (3, 5).
3. a) For x-values from โ3 to โ1, the y-values increase
from โ4 to 4. Also, for x-values from 3 to 5, the
y-values increase from 2 to 6. Thus the function is
increasing on (โ3, โ1) and on (3, 5).
b) For x-values from โ1 to 1, the y-values decrease
from 6 to 2. Also, for x-values from 4 to โ, the yvalues decrease from 11 to โโ. Thus the function
is decreasing on (โ1, 1) and on (4, โ).
c) For x-values from โโ to โ1, y is 3. Thus the function is constant on (โโ, โ1).
7. The x-values extend from โ5 to 5, so the domain is [โ5, 5].
The y-values extend from โ3 to 3, so the range is [โ3, 3].
8. Domain: [โ5, 5]; range: [1, 4]
9. The x-values extend from โ5 to โ1 and from 1 to 5, so
the domain is [โ5, โ1] โช [1, 5].
The y-values extend from โ4 to 6, so the range is [โ4, 6].
10. Domain: [โ5, 5]; range: [1, 3]
11. The x-values extend from โโ to โ, so the domain is
(โโ, โ).
The y-values extend from โโ to 3, so the range is (โโ, 3].
12. Domain: (โโ, โ); range: (โโ, 11]
b) For x-values from 1 to 3, the y-values decrease from
3 to 2. Thus the function is decreasing on the interval (1, 3).
13. From the graph we see that a relative maximum value of
the function is 3.25. It occurs at x = 2.5. There is no
relative minimum value.
c) For x-values from โ5 to โ3, y is 1. Thus the function is constant on (โ5, โ3).
The graph starts rising, or increasing, from the left and
stops increasing at the relative maximum. From this point,
the graph decreases. Thus the function is increasing on
(โโ, 2.5) and is decreasing on (2.5, โ).
4. a) For x-values from 1 to 2, the y-values increase from 1
to 2. Thus the function is increasing on the interval
(1, 2).
b) For x-values from โ5 to โ2, the y-values decrease
from 3 to 1. For x-values from โ2 to 1, the y-values
decrease from 3 to 1. And for x-values from 3 to 5,
the y-values decrease from 2 to 1. Thus the function
is decreasing on (โ5, โ2), on (โ2, 1), and on (3, 5).
c) For x-values from 2 to 3, y is 2. Thus the function
is constant on (2, 3).
5. a) For x-values from โโ to โ8, the y-values increase
from โโ to 2. Also, for x-values from โ3 to โ2, the
y-values increase from โ2 to 3. Thus the function
is increasing on (โโ, โ8) and on (โ3, โ2).
b) For x-values from โ8 to โ6, the y-values decrease
from 2 to โ2. Thus the function is decreasing on
the interval (โ8, โ6).
c) For x-values from โ6 to โ3, y is โ2. Also, for xvalues from โ2 to โ, y is 3. Thus the function is
constant on (โ6, โ3) and on (โ2, โ).
14. From the graph we see that a relative minimum value of 2
occurs at x = 1. There is no relative maximum value.
The graph starts falling, or decreasing, from the left and
stops decreasing at the relative minimum. From this point,
the graph increases. Thus the function is increasing on
(1, โ) and is decreasing on (โโ, 1).
15. From the graph we see that a relative maximum value of
the function is 2.370. It occurs at x = โ0.667. We also
see that a relative minimum value of 0 occurs at x = 2.
The graph starts rising, or increasing, from the left and
stops increasing at the relative maximum. From this point
it decreases to the relative minimum and then increases
again. Thus the function is increasing on (โโ, โ0.667)
and on (2, โ). It is decreasing on (โ0.667, 2).
16. From the graph we see that a relative maximum value of
2.921 occurs at x = 3.601. A relative minimum value of
0.995 occurs at x = 0.103.

Chapter 2: More on Functions
The graph starts decreasing from the left and stops decreasing at the relative minimum. From this point it increases to the relative maximum and then decreases again.
Thus the function is increasing on (0.103, 3.601) and is decreasing on (โโ, 0.103) and on (3.601, โ).

h(d) = d2 โ 35002
We considered only the positive square root since distance
must be nonnegative.
26. After t minutes, the balloon has risen 120t ft. We use the
Pythagorean theorem.
[d(t)]2 = (120t)2 + 4002
d(t) = (120t)2 + 4002
We considered only the positive square root since distance
must be nonnegative.

31. a) After 4 pieces of ๏ฌoat line, each of length x ft, are
used for the sides perpendicular to the beach, there
remains (240โ4x) ft of ๏ฌoat line for the side parallel
to the beach. Thus we have a rectangle with length
240 โ 4x and width x. Then the total area of the
three swimming areas is
A(x) = (240 โ 4x)x, or 240x โ 4×2 .
b) The length of the sides labeled x must be positive
and their total length must be less than 240 ft, so
4x < 240, or x < 60. Thus the domain is
{x|0 < x < 60}, or (0, 60).
c) We see from the graph that the maximum value of
the area function on the interval (0, 60) appears to
be 3600 when x = 30. Thus the dimensions that
yield the maximum area are 30 ft by 240 โ 4 ยท 30, or
240 โ 120, or 120 ft.

In each quadrant there are two congruent triangles. One
triangle is part of the rhombus and both are part of the
rectangle. Thus, in each quadrant the area of the rhombus
is one-half the area of the rectangle. Then, in total, the
area of the rhombus is one-half the area of the rectangle.

32. a) If the length = x feet, then the width = 24 โ x feet.
A(x) = x(24 โ x)
A(x) = 24x โ x2
b) The length of the rectangle must be positive and
less than 24 ft, so the domain of the function is
{x|0 < x < 24}, or (0, 24).
c) We see from the graph that the maximum value of
the area function on the interval (0, 24) appears to
be 144 when x = 12. Then the dimensions that yield
the maximum area are length = 12 ft and width =
24 โ 12, or 12 ft.
33. a) When a square with sides of length x is cut from
each corner, the length of each of the remaining sides
of the piece of cardboard is 12 โ 2x. Then the dimensions of the box are x by 12 โ 2x by 12 โ 2x. We
use the formula Volume = length ร width ร height
to ๏ฌnd the volume of the box:
V (x) = (12 โ 2x)(12 โ 2x)(x)
V (x) = (144 โ 48x + 4×2 )(x)
V (x) = 144x โ 48×2 + 4×3
This can also be expressed as V (x) = 4x(x โ 6)2 , or
V (x) = 4x(6 โ x)2 .

b) The length of the sides of the square corners that
are cut out must be positive and less than half the
length of a side of the piece of cardboard. Thus, the
domain of the function is {x|0 < x < 6}, or (0, 6).
c) We see from the graph that the maximum value of
the area function on the interval (0, 6) appears to
be 128 when x = 2. When x = 2, then 12 โ 2x =
12 โ 2 ยท 2 = 8, so the dimensions that yield the
maximum volume are 8 cm by 8 cm by 2 cm.

h(x) =
โ2, for x โฅ 3
This can also be expressed as follows:
โx, for x โค 0,
x, for 0 < x < 3,

63. From the graph we see that the domain is [โ5, 3] and the
range is (โ3, 5). Finding the slope of each segment and
using the slope-intercept or point-slope formula, we ๏ฌnd
that an equation for the function is:

67. First ๏ฌnd the slope of the given line.
70. If [[x + 2]] = โ3, then โ3 โค x + 2 < โ2, or
โ5 โค x < โ4. The possible inputs for x are
{x| โ 5 โค x < โ4}.
71. If [[x]]2 = 25, then [[x]] = โ5 or [[x]] = 5. For
โ5 โค x < โ4, [[x]] = โ5. For 5 โค x < 6, [[x]] = 5.
Thus, the possible inputs for x are
{x| โ 5 โค x < โ4 or 5 โค x 0 for all values of x in its domain, the domain of F/G

37. The domain of G/F is the set of numbers in the domains of

41. From the graph, we see that the domain of F is [0, 9] and
the domain of G is [3, 10]. The domain of F + G is the set
of numbers in the domains of both F and G. This is [3, 9].
42. The domain of F โ G and F G is the set of numbers in the
domains of both F and G. (See Exercise 41.) This is [3, 9].
The domain of F/G is the set of numbers in the domains
of both F and G, excluding those for which G = 0. Since
G > 0 for all values of x in its domain, the domain of F/G
is [3, 9].
43. The domain of G/F is the set of numbers in the domains
of both F and G (See Exercise 41.), excluding those for
which F = 0. Since F (6) = 0 and F (8) = 0, the domain
of G/F is [3, 6) โช (6, 8) โช (8, 9].

stops increasing at the relative maximum. From this point
it decreases to the relative minimum and then increases
again. Thus the function is increasing on (โโ, โ1.29)

The domain of f is (โโ, โ) and the domain of g is [0, โ).
Consider the domain of f โฆ g. Since any number can be an
input for f , the domain of f โฆ g is the same as the domain
of g, [0, โ).
Now consider the domain of g โฆ f . Since the inputs of g

25. Under the given conditions, (f + g)(x) and (f /g)(x) have
di๏ฌerent domains if g(x) = 0 for one or more real numbers
x.
26. If f and g are linear functions, then any real number can
be an input for each function. Thus, the domain of f โฆ g =
the domain of g โฆ f = (โโ, โ).
27. This approach is not valid. Consider Exercise 23 in
Exercise Set 2.3 in the text, for example. Since
4x
(f โฆ g)(x) =

xโ5
function would lead to the incorrect conclusion that the
domain of f โฆ g is (โโ, 5) โช (5, โ). However, we must also
exclude from the domain of f โฆ g those values of x that
are not in the domain of g. Thus, the domain of f โฆ g is
(โโ, 0) โช (0, 5) โช (5, โ).

Then for (f โฆg)(x) we must have g(x) โฅ 5, or x2 +1 โฅ 5, or
x2 โฅ 4. Then the domain of (f โฆg)(x) is (โโ, โ2]โช[2, โ).
Since we can substitute any real number for x in g, the
domain of (g โฆ f )(x) is the same as the domain of f (x),
[5, โ).
