3 1. Julie opened a lemonade stand and found tat daily er profit is a linear function of te number of cups of lemonade sold. Wen se sells 360 cups of lemonade, se makes $4 and wen se sells 40 cups of lemonade, se makes $63. (a) Find te profit function. (b) How many cups of lemonade does Julie need to sell to make $16 in a day? Solution: (a) Let x be te number of cups sold, ten P (x) = mx + b were m = = 1 60 = 0.35 Tus P (x) =.0.35x + b, and so 4 = (360)(0.35) + b wic means b = 4 16 = 84. Hence P (x) = 0.35x 84. (b) To make $16, we solve 0.35x 84 = 16, and so x = ( )/(0.35) = 600 cups. 13. (a) Find te coordinates of te vertex of te grap of te quadratic function f defined by f(x) = 5x + 5x + 6 (b) Write te quadratic function f in standard form. Solution: (a) Te vertex for a function f(x) = ax + bx + c is (, k) were = b and a 4ac b k = f() =. In tis case f(x) = 5x + 5x + 6 and so a = 5, b = 5 and c = 6. 4a

4 Terefore, = 5 ( 5) = 1. Ten plugging tis value into f or using te vertex formula for k we find k = f ( ) 1 = 5 ( ) In eiter case, k = 9 4 ; terefore, te vertex is ( 1, 9 4 ) ( ) or k = (b) Standard form is f(x) = a(x ) + k were (, k) is te vertex. Terefore, ( f(x) = 5 x 1 ) Let f(x) = 7x 3x + 4. Find and simplify te difference quotient f(x + ) f(x). Solution: For f(x) = 7x 3x + 4, te difference quotient is f(x + ) f(x) = 7(x + ) 3(x + ) + 4 (7x 3x + 4) = 7(x + x + ) 3x x + 3x 4 = 14x = (14x + 7 3) = 14x + 7 3

5 15. Use syntetic division to find (x 4 6x 6x + 7) (x 3) Solution: Te syntetic division wit c = 3 is as follows Terefore, te answer is: x 3 + 3x + 3x x Find all zeros of te polynomial P defined by given tat x = i is a zero of P. P (x) = x 4 7x 3 + 5x 8x + 4 Solution: Because complex (non-real) zeros of polynomials wit real coefficients come in conjugate pairs, we know tat bot i and i are zeros of P (x). We now use syntetic division divide te factors wit tese zeros out of P (x). i i 4 14i 8 + i i 1 14i i 0 Now use syntetic division again to divide out te factor (x + i). i i 1 14i i i 14i i Tis means P (x) = (x i)(x + i)(x + 5)(x 7x + 1). To find te remaining two zeros of P, we solve solve x 7x + 1 = 0. According to te quadratic formula, te solutions are x = 7 ± (7) 4(1)(1) = 7 ± 45 Tus, te zeros of P are i, i, 7 45 and

6 17. Let f(x) = x 9x + 0 x 7x + 1. (a) State te domain of f, and simplify f if possible. (b) Find equations for te vertical asymptote(s) for te grap of f, and determine te beavior of f just to te rigt and just to te left of eac vertical asymptote. (c) Find all values of c for wic tere is a ole in te grap of f above x = c. Solution: (a) Te domain of f is {x : x 3, x 4}, and we simplify f as f(x) = (x 5)(x 4) (x 3)(x 4) = x 5 x 3 x 3, x 4 (b) Te zeros in te denominator of te simplified rational function provide te locations of te vertical asymptotes. Terefore, te grap of f as vertical asymptote x = 3. (c) For numbers x sligtly bigger tan 3 we ave f(x) = (x 5) (x 3) = a very large negative number. a small positive number Terefore, f decreases witout bound just to te rigt of te asymptote. For numbers x sligtly smaller tan 3 we ave f(x) = (x 5) (x 3) a small negative number = a very large positive number. Terefore, f increases witout bound just to te left of te asymptote. A table of values is as follows x (x 5) (x 3) (d) Tere would be a ole in te grap above x = 4 since 4 is not in te domain of f, but tere is no vertical asymptote at x = 4.
