A

(x,y)—-> (y,x)

45
Q

(x,y)—->(y,x)

2) isolate for y again

47

There are actually two different equations:

+) and (-

49

(Domain and range just switch for transformation)

53

y= af[b(x-h)]+k

58
Q

A

1) isolate for y if needed
2) factor out the “b” term if not already factored out

62
Q

The graph of y= root f(x): What is the domain and range of root x

(And why)

A

64
Q

The graph of y= root f(x): what is the domain and range of this function when

a and b>0

(And why)

A

D: [0, infinite]

R: [0,infinite]

(Both values being greater than 0 means there are no negative values, so no reflections, therefore the graph cannot go below 0 on either)

65
Q

The graph of y= root f(x): what are the invariant points

And why

A

y=0 (x intercept)

And

y=1

(If you take the square root of each of these values you STILL get the same answer)

66

(and why)

A

The negative part of y

Can’t square root a negative value

67

68
Q

The graph of y= root f(x): does the x co-ordinate ever change

A

No

69
Q

The graph of y= root f(x): steps for graphing this

A

1) draw some new points at convienent spots (and connect them using straight lines) using the mapping rule (x,y)—-> (x, root y)
2) draw horizontal lines at y=0 and uy=1 (these are the invariant points)
3) mark invariant points
4) take negative y parts out of the graph
5) connect the dots using the rule that if y>1 you draw a curve below the line, and if 0

70

A

No

81
Q

What is the horizontal asymptote in this equation:

x^2)/(3x^2-x-5

A

(1/3)

Take the leading coefficients of the highest degree in the num and denom

82
Q

The graph of
y= (x^2 + bx + c)/(x-d)

is a straight line with a point of discontinuity at (2,5). What is the value of c

A

1) x=2 is the restriction so the bottom must me (x-2)
2) since it’s a discontinuity something has to cancel out for the expression to be simplified so one of the top factors is (x-2)
3) cancel out the (x-2) on the top and bottom and you’re left with y=(x-a)
4) y=5 and x=2 so plug those values in to solve for a, you get 3, which means the other factor is (x+3)
5) foil the top factors out so you have it in the correct form, c=(-6)

83
Q

How do you find the y value of a point of discontinuity

A

Sub the restricted c value into the simplified function

84
Q

How to find the domain of a rational function

A

State restrictions on the denominator

85

A

Sub x value(s) that are discontinuities into equation to determine y- value(s) range

86
Q

How to determine an equation from the graph of a rational function (graph with swoopy lines)

A

1) determine any discontinuities (POD or vert asymptote) and find bottom factor(s) from that, can also find top factor if stuff has to cancel
2) determine horizontal asymptotes and make sure equation lies up with that corresponding situation
3) if there are x intercepts you can find a factor in the numerator
4) find a point on the graph and sub in those x and y values to find the coefficient

87
Q

What does the x intercept tell us when we’re finding an equation from a graph

A

A factor in the numerator

88
Q

How to find the inverse of a rational function

A

1) swap x and y
2) isolate as usual and if you get stuck:
- FOIL
- MAKE SURE LIKE TERMS THAT YOU HAVE TO ISOLATE ARE ON THE SAME SIDE
- FACTOR SOMETHING OUT

89
Q

How to find the new domain/range when a function is transformed when you’re given the old points for domain/range

ONLY apply the y transformations to the range points
