3.4 Composition of Functions

3.1 Section Exercises

1.

A relation is a set of ordered pairs. A function is a special kind of relation in which no two ordered pairs have the same first coordinate.

3.

When a vertical line intersects the graph of a relation more than once, that indicates that for that input there is more than one output. At any particular input value, there can be only one output if the relation is to be a function.

5.

When a horizontal line intersects the graph of a function more than once, that indicates that for that output there is more than one input. A function is one-to-one if each output corresponds to only one input.

3.2 Section Exercises

1.

The domain of a function depends upon what values of the independent variable make the function undefined or imaginary.

3.

There is no restriction on $x$ for $f (x) = \sqrt[3]{x}$ because you can take the cube root of any real number. So the domain is all real numbers, $(- \infty, \infty) .$ When dealing with the set of real numbers, you cannot take the square root of negative numbers. So $x$ -values are restricted for $f (x) = \sqrt[]{x}$ to nonnegative numbers and the domain is $[0, \infty) .$

5.

Graph each formula of the piecewise function over its corresponding domain. Use the same scale for the $x$ -axis and $y$ -axis for each graph. Indicate inclusive endpoints with a solid circle and exclusive endpoints with an open circle. Use an arrow to indicate $- \infty$ or $\infty .$ Combine the graphs to find the graph of the piecewise function.

Isolate the absolute value term so that the equation is of the form $| A | = B .$ Form one equation by setting the expression inside the absolute value symbol, $A,$ equal to the expression on the other side of the equation, $B .$ Form a second equation by setting $A$ equal to the opposite of the expression on the other side of the equation, $- B .$ Solve each equation for the variable.

3.

The graph of the absolute value function does not cross the $x$ -axis, so the graph is either completely above or completely below the $x$ -axis.

5.

There is no solution for $a$ that will keep the function from having a $y$ -intercept. The absolute value function always crosses the $y$ -intercept when $x = 0.$

3.7 Section Exercises

1.

Each output of a function must have exactly one output for the function to be one-to-one. If any horizontal line crosses the graph of a function more than once, that means that $y$ -values repeat and the function is not one-to-one. If no horizontal line crosses the graph of the function more than once, then no $y$ -values repeat and the function is one-to-one.

3.

Yes. For example, $f (x) = \frac{1}{x}$ is its own inverse.

5.

Given a function $y = f (x),$ solve for $x$ in terms of $y .$ Interchange the $x$ and $y .$ Solve the new equation for $y .$ The expression for $y$ is the inverse, $y = f^{- 1} (x) .$

$f^{- 1} (x) = \frac{5}{9} (x - 32) .$ Given the Fahrenheit temperature, $x,$ this formula allows you to calculate the Celsius temperature.
