$$\{x \mid x \neq 0, x \neq 3\}$$

Question 1

Which of the following best describes the domain of a function?

Accepted Answer

The set of all possible input values (x-coordinates)

Question 4

Which of the following is NOT a function?

Accepted Answer

$$x = y^2$

Question 5

A function $$f is $$defined by $$f(x) = -3x^2$ + 2x. $$What is $$f(-1)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$1$$

Question 6

If $$g(x) = x^2$ - 5x$$ and $$h(x) = 2x + 3$$, what is $$(g+h)(x)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$x^2 - 5x + 2x + 3$

Question 7

Which of the following is the correct difference quotient for $$f(x) = x^2$?

Accepted Answer

$$\frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h} = \frac{(x+h)^2$ - x^2$}{h}$$

Question 8

A rectangle has a perimeter $$P = 2l + 2w = 100. $$Express the area $$A as a $$function of $$w$$ and find its domain.

Accepted Answer

$$A(w) = (50-w)w$$, \quad w \in (0,50)$
