Phone. 956-4672 (PSB 318), (Myers home: 536-1285, ask for "Prof. Myers" not "Dr. Myers" which is my wife, an M.D.)

Email address. [email protected] Include your TA's name in all emails

Office hours, PSB 318. See class website, math.hawaii.edu/140 If you have to wait, do so on a chair inside the office. Waiting outside is always futile.

Text. Stewart, Precalculus. Register online for WebAssign with the code in your textbook. Buy the required worksheet packet and iClicker from the bookstore. To register your iClicker, go to the iClickers link.

Prerequisites. Two years of high school algebra, one year of high school geometry or trigonometry, passage of the placement exam.

Grade. Grade score = 10*(four chapter exams + 200 point written final) + homework +WebAssign homework + classwork + (1/3)* (iClicker+preexams+gateway). Letter grades are assigned according to rank (curve - not percentage) on the total grade score. Letter grades are not averaged. To get a C or better, you must pass a gateway exam with a score of 56/64 or better. Curve for an average class (to within 3%): 10% A's 30% A&B's 40% C's 30% D&F's 10% F's. You are ranked against students in the two sections taught by your lab session instructor. Students in sections taught by the other lab instructors are on a separate curve with separate grade lines. After each midterm, grades are posted in the middle of the class website page. Along with your grades are the class grade curves. Do not read your scores horizontally across the class curves, just because you are 10th from the top in the curve for one exam does not mean you are the 10th from the top in the other curves.

Grading. I handle matters involving doctor-signed excuses and grading of exams, WebAssign homework, and iClicker quizzes. The teaching assistants handle all matters relating to written homework and classwork.

iClicker quizzes. The MW lecture periods are devoted to iClicker quizzes. Talking is not allowed. Prepare for these quizzes with the lectures in the worksheet packet or the online lecture videos on the class website. To preview a quiz, go to the class website math.hawaii.edu/140, select LecturesHW, click "quiz" after the lecture.

Homework. Homework assignments: Practice on odd numbered problems, they have answers in the back of the book. Homework problems are for credit, not practice. Homework worksheets are due at the beginning of the lab section. For homework due-dates, click "Home" above then "Full

Calendar". Homework and written exams (Exam 3, 4 and the final): Simplify your answers: unacceptable: (b-a)/(a-b), y-7 = x-2, -6/9, 0/2 acceptable: -1, y = x + 5, -2/3, 0 Use reduced fractions instead of decimals or mixed fractions. E.g., 3/2, not 1.5 or 1 1/2. Fractions of fractions such as (1-1/x)/(1+x) are not acceptable. Simplify to a single fraction. Give exact answers instead of decimals. E.g. pi instead of 3.14. Circle your answers. All homework assignments must be written on the worksheets provided in the lecture note packet or on line in the "LecturesHw" link. Write all your work in the space provided. Do not attach scratch paper to either homework or written exams. Your lab session instructor grades your homework and the first page of the written exams. I grade the last. Extra credit (5 points) for being the first to find an error in the notes, in a WebAssign problem or on exams. chk: If you see "chk=8" on a homework assignment, it means the checksum of your answer is 8. The checksum is the sum of all the digits. For -13/12, chk=1+3+1+2=7. For x-2+3x-1/2, chk=2+3+1+2=8. Web homework: WebAssign homework is due 48 hours after the corresponding lecture unless specified otherwise. Web homework is not an alternative to the written homework, both are required. If you have an incorrect answer, you get two additional tries for that problem. To get a second or third try, click anywhere in the question, then click "New Randomization".

Late credit. Excuses require a doctor-signed medical excuse or a University-approved excuse for off-island athletic events. Make up missed exams and assignments within 48 hours the last excused day. Late homework assignments: If only one lab session overdue, 90%. Else if only one week overdue 80%. Otherwise 70% late credit. If you turn in Hw 11 when 12, 13, 14 are due, you get 90%, 80%, 70% respectively. If you have a dated, doctor-signed medical excuse for a missed homework or exam, your due date for this missed exam is one period after the last excused date. Homework submitted 1, 2, 3, ... periods after this due date will get 90%, 80%, 70% as above. The last day of instruction is the last day to submit late homework. Late web assignments: 85% if late. WebAssign does not accept assignments which are more than 14 days late. To submit a late web assignment, you request an automatic extension and accept their terms. If you have a doctor-signed excuse I can remove either this 85% late penalty or extend the due date (but at most 14 days). Late iClicker quizzes and classwork: You can't make up late iClicker quizzes or classwork. If you have a doctor-signed medical excuse, show it to your TA who will give you your group's grade for the missed day and show the excuse to me and I will average in your missed iClicker exam. I will also average in scores for iClicker quizzes missed due to taking a midterm during a lecture period.

Class work. In-class group work must be done with a group of between three to six students. No credit otherwise. To get credit, you work with your group until everyone has finished or until the end of the class period. Help those in your group who need it; get help if you need it. Everyone in the group gets the lowest score in the group.

Exams. Exams are closed book. No calculators. Use only the provided scratch paper. They have three pages, put your name on each page. Do not use erasable ink. Show your work and circle your answers. Practice exams are in your worksheet packet. Try to do the Practice-quiz problems in the time indicated. Practice-quiz problem numbers correspond to practice exam problem numbers. Test problems are similar the practice exam and pre-exam problems and the more difficult homework problems. Pre exams: For each exam, Exam1, Exam2, Exam3, Exam4, Final, there is a pre exam, PreExam1, PreExam2, PreExam3, PreExam4, PreExam5 which you do at home and submit before the beginning of the exam week. I suggest taking the no-credit practice exams before taking the pre-exams. For the exams, you only get one try. For the pre-exams, you get three tries as with Web homework. You can take the no-credit practice exams 50 times. To get the dates for the exams and preexams, click "Home" above then "Full Calendar". Gateway exams: Gateway exams are 25 minute WebAssign exams held in the computer lab in PSB 208. See GatewaySchedule for the available exam times. Passing is 56/64 or better. Until the last day to withdraw, you must take them at least once every week until you pass or run out of your 20 tries. You must pass a gateway exam before the last day to withdraw in order to get a grade of C or better. This does not imply the converse, that passing the gateway will get you a C or better. If you don't pass any gateway exam, the best grade you can get is C- even if your grade other than the gateway is an A. But passing the Gateway, won't necessarily mean that you pass the course, an F is still possible. Final exam: The final exam is a cumulative 2-hour exam, 12:00-2:00, Wednesday of finals week.

Late registration. If you register late, read “FirstWeekDuties” on the class website. Any missed assignments must be made up within one week.

Exact answers. On exams and homework assignments such as Hw 12, 14, 18 you are asked to give exact answers rather

than decimal answers. This means writing π and not its nonexact decimal approximation 3.14. This means writing 2instead of a finite decimal approximation given by a calculator. The exact answer for the area of a circle with radius 2is , the decimal approximation is The exact answer for the solution of is .�22 = 4� 4(3.14) = 12.56. x2 − 5 = 0 x = ! 5The decimal approximation to two places is . !2.24

Gateway problems. All Gateway exams have a problem which asks you to complete the square for a formula. The mostcommon mistake is to try to make the formula into an equation and then complete the square for the equation. E.g.,when asked to complete the square of many try to make this an equation . Formulas andx2 − x + 1 x2 − x + 1 = 0equations are two different things.

The most common error for factorization problems is to list the roots rather than give the factorization. For theproblem “Factor ”, the correct answer is “ ” not “ ”.x2 − 4 x2 − 4 = (x − 2)(x + 2) x = −2, x = 2

Hw 0, Prob. 3, 4. Rewrite without | |’s: for .|x + 1| + 4|x + 3| x < −3 is either or . |x + 1| (x + 1) −(x + 1)

To determine which, determine if is or . x + 1 m 0 < 0If , then . x + 1 m 0 |x + 1| = (x + 1)

If , then . x + 1 < 0 |x + 1| = −(x + 1)

Hw 0, Prob. 6, 7. Write as an interval: {x: |x−4| < 4}. Write as a union of two intervals: {x: |x+5| > 2}. A inequality such as is equivalent to < |x + 6| < 2

which in turn reduces to (subtract 6)−2 < x + 6 < 2 which gives one interval −8 < x < −4 (−8, −4)

can also be written .−8 < x < −4 −8 < x and x < −4A inequality such as is equivalent to> |x + 6| > 2

which is reduces to (subtract 6) x + 6 < −2 or 2 < x + 6 which gives two intervals x < −8 or −4 < x (−∞, −8) 4 (−4,∞)

A inequality involves an “or” instead of an “and” and two intervals instead of one. > or m

Hw 1, Prob. 2. Solve 3x + 1 = 4When solving equations with radicals, get the radical by itself on one side and everything else on the other. After solving the equations one must substitute the answers back into the original equation to determine if they arevalid.

The most common mistake is to multiply both sides of by , to get . But things aren’t thisx+4

2x−5 [ 0 2x − 5 x + 4 [ 0

or negative. Use the key number method given in Lecture 1 and see the worked examples for Homework 1.

Similarly, you can’t simplify by multiplying both sides by x. First get the 2 on the left, , thenx −3x [ 2 x −

Hw 2, Prob 2. .x2 + y2 − 10x + 2y + 17 = 0To solve ,x2 + y2 − 4x − 6y − 12 = 0first group the x’s together and the y’s together and get the constant on the right.

(x2 − 4x ) + (y2 − 6y ) = 12Now, complete the square by adding the square of one half the coefficient of or .x y

The center is and the radius is .(a, b) = (2, 3) r = 5

Hw 2, Prob 9. Find the slope of the line through and .(−3, 0) (4, 9)

When finding the slope of the line through , the most common error was invert the slope formula,(x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

i.e. use instead of the correct or equally correct . Make sure that the order of them =x1−x2

y1−y2 m =y1−y2

Roots: .x = −3, −2, 1Second error: not knowing how to get started. Notice the theorem of Lecture 3: a is a root iff is a factor. (x − a)

Secondly, if is a factor, then you get the other factor using long division.(x − a)

Hence if 11 is a root, then is one factor. Divide the polynomial by . The resulting quotient is the other(x − 11) (x − 11)

factor. This quotient might have to be factored even further.

Hw 3, Prob 6. When calculating a domain, you must exclude all points which makes the denominator of a fraction 0.

Hw 4, Quiz 4. When listing intervals of increase of decrease, separate the intervals with a comma rather than taking theunion as is done when listing a function’s domain. Write when giving a domain but write [0, 1) 4 (2,∞) [0, 1), (2,∞)

when listing two intervals of increase. Secondly, when listing an interval of increase or decrease, include the endpoint(i.e., use if the function is defined at the endpoint; exclude the endpoint (i.e., use ) if the function is undefined.[, ] (, )

Hence if are two intervals of increase for a function, then the function is defined at 0 but undefined at 1[0, 1), (2,∞)

and 2.A common error is to wrongly assume that for any function f, . For multiplication by a number cf(a + b) = f(a) + f(b)

it is true that . But for functions, it is usually the case that .c(a + b) = ca + cb f(a + b)!f(a) + f(b)

Almost always, we have: , , , , , a + b ! a + b |a + b| ! |a| + |b| (a + b)n ! an + bn xa+b ! xa + xb 1a+b !

log(a + b) ! log a + log b, sin(a + b) ! sin a + sin b, cos(a + b) ! cos a + cos b, tan(a + b) ! tan a +, tan b.

Likewise, it is usually the case that and , ... .a − b ! a − b |a − b| ! |a| − |b|

Hw 5, Prob 2(k). Do problem 2(k) on page 137 carefully; it is often missed. You will see variants in quizzes and exams.

Quiz 5, Prob 9, 14b. Problems 9 and 14(b) were often missed. Getting was the most common error in Problem 9.g(x + h)

If , then , in particular, (see Hw 3, Prob 34).g(x) = x2 g(x + h) = (x + h)2g(x + h) ! x2 + h2

Quiz 5, Prob. 14b. The most common mistake was to solve the problem with the following incorrect sequence of steps. The problem lies with the last step, instead of replacing x with x +1, it incorrectly replaces -xf(x) d f(−x) d f(−x + 1)

with -x +1. The recommended solution is to rewrite as . The correct sequence is obtained byf(−x + 1) f(−(x − 1))

working backward from to and then to . This results in the sequence . Notef(−(x − 1)) f(−x) f(x) f(x) d f(−x) d f(−(x − 1))

that this last step involves replacing x by x−1 which shifts the graph right one unit.

Practice Exam 1, Prob. 14b. As with the preceding quiz problem, the majority of students can’t graph . Theyf(1 − x) − 1fail to rewrite the problem as and fail to find the correct sequence which is f(−x + 1) − 1

. Start with the value work backward one step at a time to andf(x) d f(x + 1) d f(−x + 1) d f(−x + 1) − 1 f(−x + 1) f(x)

work forward to the desired value (see Quiz 5, Prob. 14b). f(−x + 1) − 1

Practice Exam 1, Prob. 12. Graphing piecewise defined functions is easy but many miss this problem.

Practice Exam 1, Prob. 16. Most get this problem but fail similar problems such as (1) if , then find orf(x) = 1 − x2 f (f (x))

(2) if then find (see quiz 5 prob. 9, 14b). g(x) = 1 − x2g(x+h)−g(x)

Quiz 10. Many were able to find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes and x and y-intercepts but yet could not draw thegraph. The best remedy is to plot more points until you see the shape of the graph.

Quiz 11, Prob. 9. Most mistakes here were due to confusion about the rules of exponent arithmetic — when you shouldadd, subtract or multiply exponents. Here practice makes perfect, do the recommended exercises to developcompetence with exponents.

Practice Exam 2, Prob. 1(b). To solve for y, regard x as a constant and use the quadratic formula. Gettingy2 − 2y = x

everything on the left gives Note that this is where . The quadraticy2 − 2y − x = 0. ay2 + by + c = 0 a = 1, b = −2, c = −x

y coordinate is the sine of the angle. The coordinates and hence sines and cosines of the other angles are the same astheir first quadrant reference angles except for a change of sign. Points below the x-axis have a negative y coordinate.Points left of the y-axis have a negative x coordinate.

Hw 16. Don’t continue writing sin or cos after calculating sin or cos. is correct but sin(−�/4) = − sin(�/4) = 1/ 2

Hw 17. Common error when writing proofs: don’t write “iff ” or between formulas; don’t write “=” betweeng

equations. Write “=” between formulas; write “iff” or between equations.g

Practice Exam 3, Prob. 12, 13. The most common error (with a 1 point loss) was failure to insert the needed “iff”s betweenequalities or wrongly inserting “=”s between equalities. Some students made the opposite mistake of placing “iff”s

between terms. E.g. “ ” is correct but “ ” is incorrect — you should place “=” not “iff”2x + 4 = 2(x + 2) 2x + 4 iff 2(x + 2)

between two numbers. One the other hand “ ” is correct but “ ” is incorrect — you should2x = 4 iff x = 2 2x = 4 = x = 2place “iff” not “=” between two equations.

While most students remember the graphs of sin, cos, and tan. Most fail to graph csc, sec or cot. These are obtainedfrom sin, cos, and tan respectively by taking reciprocals. This was done for csc and sec in the lecture notes and in thehomework. The same technique will give the graph of cot.

When calculating phase shifts, remember that it is the number which is subtracted from x. Hence the phase shift of

is π and the graph of sin is shifted π units to the right. The phase shift of is -1 since sin(x − �) tan(�(x + 1))

and this corresponds to shifting the graph of one unit to the left. tan(�(x + 1)) = tan(�(x − (−1))) tan(�x)

Practice Exam 4, Prob. 4. Many try to apply the addition formula to and . This makes the problemsin(x + y) cos(x + y)

more complicated. One should note that the entire expression is the right-hand side ofsin(x + y) cos x − cos(x + y) sin x

the a subtraction formula for sin: . Then simplifies tosin((x + y) − x) = sin(x + y) cos x − cos(x + y) sin x sin((x + y) − x)

. In general, many students have a hard time remembering the sum and product rule identities. There is moresin x

memorization required here than in high school math classes but much less to remember than in an organic chemistryclass.

Practice Exam 4, Prob. 10. Many who were able to solve this equation were not able to solve the2 cos2x − 5 cos x = −2related quiz-type equation . The first step here would be to replace by and make this2 sin2x + 5 cos x = 4 sin2x 1 − cos2x

a problem involving only cosines. Many also were unable to solve . Since there is no squares anothercos x + sin x = 0

tactic is needed. Divide by to get which is which is . Then solve this. cos x 1 +sin xcos x = 0 1 + tan x = 0 tan x = −1

Practice Exam 4, Prob. 11a, 11b. Most mistakes here involved ignoring what the restricted ranges are for the inverse trigfunctions. For any value x, must be an angle in the upper two quadrants, i.e., an angle in . must becos−1(x) [0,�] sin−1(x)

Completing the square`Complete the square for .2x2 7x 12

Warning: completing the square for the formula and completing the square for the equation 2x2 7x 12

are two different problems. The2x2 7x 12 0common mistake is to assume the formula is an equation.For the equational version of completing the square, seethe circle equation section of Lecture 2. Completing thesquare for formulas is different. With an equation, youcan add a number to both sides. When you add somethingto a formula, you must subtract it off somewhere else inthe formula.

2x2 7x 12First factor the coefficient of x2 out of the first two

terms. Leave the constant alone. Factoring a 2 out of is7xthe same as dividing by 2. 7x2x2 7x 122x2 7

coefficient of x by two, then square. This gives . Add a2 2

from the end of the formula. Where did the 2 come from?Since the that we added was multiplied by 2 (the 2 at the49

16beginning of the formula), the we subtract must also be49

16multiplied by 2. Failure to do this multiplication is acommon error.

DEFINITION. f -1, the inverse of f , is the function, if any, such that, f (f -1(x)) = x when f -1(x) is defined and f -1(f (x)) = x when f (x) is defined.

THEOREM. The graph of y = f -1(x) is the reflection of the graph of y = f(x) across the major diagonal y = x.

DEFINITION. f is 1-1 (“one-to-one”) iff x = y implies f (x) = f (y).

THEOREM. f has an inverse iff f is 1-1 iff no horizontal lineintersects its graph more than once.

DEFINITION. A quadratic function is a degree-2 polynomial

with a=0. y = ax2 + bx + c

The graph is a parabola.} If a>0, the horns point up.

} If a<0, the horns point down.

} If |a|>1, the parabola is narrower than y = x2.

} If |a|<1, the parabola is wider than y = x2.

THEOREM. Every quadratic function may be written in the form:

y = a(x − x0)2 + y0

where (x0, y0) is the vertex (nose) of the parabola. For an expanded polynomial with axn the term of highestaxn + ... + c

degree: axn is the leading term, a is the leading coefficient, and nis the degree. The y-intercept is the constant term c.

y=-x

} For large x (near +5), graph looks like the leading term axn.

} As x goes to 5, y goes to +5 if a>0, to -5 if a<0.

} Graphs of odd degree go to +5 in one direction, -5 in the other,

like y = x3, y = -x3. } Graphs of even degree either go to +5 in both directions or to -5

in both directions, like y=x2, y=-x2.} At roots of degree 1, the graph crosses x-axis like y=x or y=-x.

} At roots of odd degree n>1, the graph crosses the x-axis like y=x3

or y=-x3

} At roots of even degree, the graph touches but doesn't cross the

x-axis, like y=x2 or y=-x2

DEFINTION. A ratio of two polynomial functions is a rational function.

It is reduced if the top and bottom have no common factors.In the graphs below, x = 0 (the y-axis) is the vertical asymptote, y =

0 (the x-axis) is the horizontal asymptote.

For odd degree vertical asymptotes, one side goes to +5, the other to-5.

For even degree vertical asymptotes, both sides go to +5 or both goto -5.

For a reduced rational function: } x-intercepts (roots) occur where the top is 0.

If the root has degree n, the x-intercept looks like that of y = xn or y= -xn .} If the bottom is 0 at a, then x=a is a vertical asymptote.

If the factor has degree n, the vertical asymptote looks like that of y=1/xn or y = −1/xn .} As xƒ+5, the graph resembles the graph of the leading term

which is either a constant b or of the form a/xn or axn. (1) If a constant b, then y = b is a horizontal asymptote.

(2) If it is a/xn, then y = 0 is a horizontal asymptote. (3) If it is axn, there is no horizontal asymptote.

DEFINITION. An exponential function is of the form y = bx with thebase b>0. b0 = 1, b1 = b, b2 = b.b, ... b-n = 1/bn

b1/n = , the nth root of b bp/q = bp.(1/q) = (bp)1/q = (b1/q)p n b

DEFINITION. Suppose the vertex of an angle is at the center of a circleof radius r. Let s be the length of the arc the angle intercepts on thecircle. Then

q = s/r is the radian measure of the angle. For unit circles, the radius r =

1 and radian measure equals arc length: q = s.Clockwise angles ?are negative. CONVERSION FORMULAS. 180o = p radians. Thus

1o = p/180 radians and 1 radian = 180/p degrees. DEFINITION. If an object travels a distance d in time t, its linear speed

is d/t. If an object rotates through an angle q in time t, its rotational

speed is w = q/t. THEOREM. If a point rotates around a circle of radius r with rotational

speed w, then its linear speed is wr. The unit circle has radius one and center (0,0). There are four

quadrants I, II, III, IV as pictured. An angle is in standard position if its vertex is at the origin (0,0) and

its initial side is on the positive x-axis. The other side of the angleis the terminal side.

Suppose two sides and a nonincluded angle are known. When solving for the third side using the cosine law, you may get an

answer of the form . Then there is: s t} no solution if t <0 or both , s t 0} two solutions if t >0 and both , s t 0} one solution otherwise. When solving for a second angle using the sine law, you may get an

answer of the form q = sin-1t. There is: } no solution if t >1, } two solutions if t<1 and the given angle is adjacent to the larger

of the two sides (if one angle is q, the other p-q), } one solution otherwise.

DEFINITION. The polar coordinates (r, q) of a point P are its distance r(radius) from the origin and the angle q between the positivex-axis and the line from (0,0) to P.

First we need the following facts from Lecture 1:|w| = w if w> 0. Example, |3| = 3.|w| = -w if w < 0. Example, |-3| = -(-3) = 3. In -w, the minus sign cancels the minus sign in w.To get rid of the absolute value sign, you mustdetermine whether w is positive or negative.

Use any method you wish.

Write the following in interval notation.

L. |x − 3| [ 4.We’ll solve this one using key numbers. First solve the

equality. The solutions to the equality are “keynumbers” which divide the line into "key intervals".Plug in numbers from each interval to determine whichintervals satisfy the inequality.First solve the equality .|x − 3| = 4In general, iff w = a or w = -a. |w| = a

Note that we use “[ ]” rather than “( )” since theinequality < means the endpoints are included. If the

inequality have been <, the endpoints would beexcluded and the answer would have been (-1, 7)instead of [-1,7].

from both sides. You may multiply or divide both sides by a positive number.

Functions DEFINITION. For sets A and B, a function from A to Bassigns a value in B to each x in A. The domain of f f xis A; the range of f is the set of all possible values fx

`f (x) = x2 is a function from real numbers to realnumbers.

domain = since x2 is defined for all numbers.,range = since x2 can never be negative. 0,

NOTATION. Sometimes, instead of writing f (x) = x2, we define a function by writing y = x2.

Thus y is the value of the function. Since it depends onx, y is the dependent variable. Since x ranges freely overthe domain, it is the independent variable.

A function may assign only one value to each x. Thus y = is not a function. x`Of f and g, which are functions? (f isn’t, g is)

τ Multiplying by x+5 givesx2−6x−2

x+5 = (x − 11) +53x+5

Answer: x2 − 6x − 2 = (x + 5)(x − 11) + 53

Factor the polynomials and find all the roots (zeros).

G. x3 + x2 − 7x + 5 = 0 given 1 is a root.Since 1 is a root, divide by .x3 + x2 − 7x + 5 x − 1

The quotient is .x3+x2−7x+5

x−1 = x2 + 2x − 5Hence x3 + x2 − 7x + 5 = (x − 1)(x2 + 2x − 5)

Now we must factor . x2 + 2x − 5The first factors to try are and . Neither work,x ! 1 x ! 5thus we must use the quadratic formula.

x =−b! b2−4ac

2a =−2! 22−4(1)(−5)

2(1) =−2! 4+20

2 =−2! 4$6

2 =−2!2 6

2 = −1 ! 6Hence the factorization of isx2 + 2x − 5

x2 + 2x − 5 = [x − (−1 − 6 )][x − (−1 + 6 )]

Hence factors intox3 + x2 − 7x + 5

Answer: (x − 1)[x − (−1 − 6 )][x − (−1 + 6 )]

The three roots are

Answer: 1, −1 ! 6 .

H. 3x3 − 5x2 − 16x + 12 = 0 given -2 is a root.Since -2 is a root, we divide by .x − (−2) = x + 2

The quotient is 3x3−5x2−16x+12

x+2 = 3x2 − 11x + 6Now we must factor 3x2 − 11x + 63x2 − 11x + 6 = (3x − 2)(x − 3)

Hence factors into3x3 − 5x2 − 16x + 12

Answer: (x + 2)(3x − 2)(x − 3)= (x − (−2))(3x − 2)(x − 3)

The three roots are

Answer: −2, 23 , 3.

Write domain in interval notation.

K. (a) f(t) = t2 − 8t + 15.There are no divisions by 0, no square roots of negativenumbers. Hence is defined everywhere.f(t)

Answer: Domain (−∞,∞).

(b) g(t) = 1/(t2 − 8t + 15).Factoring gives

. Thus is undefined at t=3, 5.g(t) =1

(t−3)(t−5) g(t)

Answer: Domain = (−∞, 3) 4 (3, 5)4 (5,∞).

(c) h(t) = t2 − 8t + 15 .This is defined provided > 0.t2 − 8t + 15By part (b), the key numbers are 3, 5.The key intervals are (-5, 3], [3, 5], [5, 5).We use [ ] since the inequality is > rather than >.Now evaluate at a point in each interval.t2 − 8t + 150ι(-5,3], 02 − 8 $ 0 + 15 = 15 = +

4ι[3,5], 42 − 8 $ 4 + 15 = −1 = −

10ι[5,5), 102 − 8 $ 10 + 15 = 35 = +

Hence h(t) is undefined between 3 and 5.

Answer: (c) Domain = (−∞, 3] 4 [5,∞).

(d) k(t) =3 t2 − 8t + 15 .

You can't take the square root of a negative number butyou can take the cube root of any number. Hence isk(t)

The value f (x) = the height = the vertical position of apoint on the graph. Changing f (x) changes the verticalposition of the graph. Adding 2 raises the graph 2 units. Negating f (x) reflects the graph vertically across the x-axis.

HORIZONTAL MOVES WITH ARGUMENT CHANGES x = the x-axis position. Changing x, changes the

horizontal position of the coordinate system. Replacing x

by x+2 shifts the coordinate system 2 units to the left.

For a formula with several shifts and reflections of afunction f, rewrite it in the graph-translation form

a f bx c dThen the shifts and reflections occur in the left-to-rightorder:

A negative a gives a vertical reflection.A negative b gives a horizontal reflection. The horizontal shift is determined by the c: right if c is

positive, left if c is negative. The vertical shift is determined by d: up if d is positive,

down if d is negative.

Math 140 Lecture 7 Inverse functionsDEFINITION. f

-1, the inverse of f , is the function, if any,such that, f ( f

-1(x)) = x when f -1(x) is defined and

f -1( f (x)) = x when f (x) is defined.

This says that f and f -1 undo each other: f

-1 undoes what f (x) does and gives you back x.

`f (x) = 2x, f -1(x) = ½x. Verify: f (f -1(x)) = x & f

-1(f (x)) = x

`g(x) = x +3, g-1(x) = x-3. `h(x) = 2x +3, h

Verify that h -1(h(x)) = x.

To undo a sequence of operations, you must undo them inthe reverse order: the inverse of .gf x is f 1g1x

THEOREM. y = f -1(x) iff f (y) = x.

To find f -1(x) for complicated functions:

Start with f (y) = x. Solve for y to get y = f

-1(x).

` , find . f x x3 f 1xf y xty3 xt .y 3 x f 1x 3 x

WARNING. f -1(x) and (f (x)) -1 are not the same.

f -1(x) = the inverse

(f (x)) -1 = the reciprocal = 1/f (x) .If f (x) = x3

f -1(x) = f

By the Theorem, y = f -1(x) iff f (y) = x. Thus the graph of

y = f -1(x) is the graph of f (y) = x which is just the graph

of f (x) = y with x and y interchanged. Interchanging xand y reflects the plane around the major diagonal y = x.Hence

THEOREM. The graph of y = f -1(x) is the reflection of the

graph of y = f (x) across the major diagonal y = x.

For each function, draw the three graphs y = f (x), y = x, y = f

-1(x) on the same coordinate system.

`f (x) = x3 `f (x) = -x

3

DEFINITION. f is 1-1 (“one-to-one”) iff x = y implies f (x) = f (y).

`f (x) = 3x is 1-1 x = y ˆ 3x = 3y f (x) = x

2 is not 1 = -1 but (-1) 2

= 12.

THEOREM. The following are equivalent:v f has an inverse

v f is 1-1 v no horizontal line intersects its graph more than once.

`Which of the following functions has an inverse?

THEOREM. The domain of f -1 is the range of f. The range of

f -1 is the domain of f .

Proof. The reflection around the major diagonal whichcarries the graph of f to the graph of f

-1 also carries thedomain of f to the range of f

-1 and the range of f to thedomain of f

-1.

Stated in full, the inverse is the compositional inverse. For addition, the inverse in negation. For multiplication, the inverse is the reciprocal.

Graphing polynomials A polynomial graph is smooth: no breaks, no sharp corners.For an expanded polynomial with axn the termaxn ... c

y= x3 3y= -x

v For large x (near +5), graph looks like the leading term axn.

v As x goes to 5, y goes to +5 if a > 0, to -5 if a < 0. v Graphs of odd degree go to +5 in one direction, -5 in

the other, like y = x3, y = -x3. v Graphs of even degree either go to +5 in both

directions or to -5 in both directions, like y = x2, y = -x2.

Use the factored form to get the roots and their degrees(the degree of a root is the exponent of its factor).

v At roots of degree 1, the graph crosses x-axis like y = x or y = -x.v At roots of odd degrees 3, 5, 7, ..., the graph crosses the x-axis

like y = x3 or y = -x3.v At roots of even degrees, 2, 4, 6, ..., the graph touches but doesn’t

cross the x-axis, like y = x2 or y = -x2.At a root, the graph looks like the graph of the root’s factor.The sign of the other factors determines the + or .To get the leading term of a factored polynomial, replace each factor

by its leading term. To get the constant term (y-intercept), set x = 0.When graphing, find the x and y-intercepts and also calculate a key

value in each of the key intervals before, after, and between roots.

Math 140 Lecture 10 Rational functions and their graphs

DEFINTION. A rational function is a ratio of twopolynomials. It is reduced if the top and bottom have nocommon factors.

Like polynomials, rational functions have smooth graphs.But they may have asymptotes.

In the graphs below, x = 0 (the y-axis) is the verticalasymptote, y = 0 (the x-axis) is the horizontal asymptote.

Let v.a. and h.a. abbreviate vertical and horizontal asymptotes.

v For odd degree vertical asymptotes, one side goes to

+5, the other to -5. See 1/x and -1/x.

v For even degree vertical asymptotes, both sides go to

+5 or both go to -5. See 1/x2 and -1/x2.

DEFINITION. For rational functions, the leading term is thereduced ratio of the leading terms of the top andbottom.

Recall, to get the leading term of a factored polynomial, replace

each factor to its leading term and then simplify.

Rational functions:

Leading terms:

Hor. asymptote:

For a reduced rational function: v x-intercepts (roots) occur where the top is 0.

If the root has degree n, the x-intercept looks like that of y = xn or y= -xn.

v If the bottom is 0 at a, then x=a is a vertical asymptote.If the factor has degree n, the vertical asymptote looks like that of y=1/xn or y = −1/xn.

v As xƒ +5, the graph resembles the graph of the

leading term which is either a constant b, a fractiona/xn or a term axn of positive degree.

(1) If a constant b, then y = b is a horizontal asymptote.

(2) If it is a/xn, then y = 0 is a horizontal asymptote.

(3) If it is axn, there is no horizontal asymptote.

Graph. On the graph mark the x and y-intercepts. Mark

the vertical and horizontal asymptotes with their

equations ( y = a or x = a ) .

a is a key number iff . f(a) = 0 or f(a) = undefinedKey intervals lie before, between and after key numbers. In each key interval, calculate a key value.

Math 140 Lecture 14 Exponential growth

A bacteria colony starts with 10 bugs. Each bug splits intotwo bugs every hour. How many bugs are there after t hours?

Number of bugsNumber of hours

Exponential functions measure the size of a growing population,the amount of money in a compound interest account, the number ofatoms left after radioactive decay, etc. N(t) = the amount at time t.

BASE-e FORM LEMMA. Every exponential function can bewritten in the form

. Nt N0ekt

N0 = N(0) is the initial amount. k, the coefficient of t, is the growth constant. If k > 0, N(t) measures exponential growth. If k < 0, N(t) measures exponential decay.

FACT: Every a > 0 is a power of e: . a eln a

Example: 2 = .eln2

`Write the bug population in base-e form.Nt 10 2t

Nt 10 2t 10 eln 2t 10 eln2 t

Hence, in base-e form, . Nt 10eln2 t

Thus N0 = 10, the initial amount and k = ln(2), the natural log of the initial base. `If you deposit P dollars at 5% interest per year. How

Math 140 Lecture 15 Angles, arcs, and radiansRECALL. A circle of radius r has circumference 2pr.

p 3.14. Unit circle circumference = 2pr = 2p1 = 2p.q and w are the Greek letters “theta” and “omega”.

DEFINITION. Suppose the vertex of an angle is at the centerof a circle of radius r. Let s be the length of the arc theangle intercepts on the circle. Then

q = s/r is the radian measure of the angle. For unit circles, the radius r = 1 and radian measure equals arc length: q = s.

Speed DEFINITION. If an object travels a distance d in time t, its

linear speed is d/t. If an object rotates through an angle q in time t, itsrotational speed is w = q/t.

THEOREM. If a point rotates around a circle of radius rwith rotational speed w, then its linear speed is wr.

Proof. If a point rotates through an angle q on a circle ofradius r in time t, then w = q/t and the distance d ittravels = the length of the arc it traces = qr . tits linearspeed = d/t = qr/t = (q/t)r = wr . We assume q is in radians.

`A point revolves around a circle of radius 3 feet at 10revolutions per minute.

(a) What is its rotational speed (in radians)? 1 revolution = 2p radians, tw = 10 revs/min = 10.2p radians/min. = 20p radians/min.

(b) What is its linear speed? Its linear speed = w r = (20p rad/min). (3 feet) = 60p feet/min.

Radians are dimensionless; you may delete dimensionless units.

Trigonometric functions The unit circle has radius one and center (0, 0). There are

four quadrants I, II, III, IV as pictured. An angle is in standard position if its vertex is the origin

(0,0) and its initial side is the positive x-axis. The otherside of the angle is the terminal side. The terminal side

intersects the unit circle at a point Pq.

p/6 = 30o: This is a 30o- 60o right triangle. Thus the smallleg is ½ since it is half the hypotenuse which is 1. Let xbe the third side.

p/3 = 60o: This is the 30o triangle again but with the 30o

and 60o angles swapped. Swapping sides 1/2 and 3 /2gives: sin(p/3) = sin(60o) = and cos(p/3) = 1/2. 3 /2

p/4 = 45o: If one angle of a right triangle is 45o, so is theother acute angle and the triangle is isosceles.

The trig functions were defined on the unit circle wherethe hypotenuse of the right triangle had length 1. Forthe angle pictured, sin q = y. Any other right trianglewith an angle q is similar to this unit-circle triangle.Hence the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal. Thus sin q = y = y/1 = a/c = side opposite/hypotenuse.

THEOREM. For any right triangle with an acute angle q:sin q = opposite/hypotenuse* cos q = adjacent/hypotenuse tan q = opposite/adjacent

* More precisely, “length of the side opposite/length of thehypotenuse”. We’ll abbreviate this to just: opp/hyp.

an even function is the reflection of the right half across

the y-axis. The left half of an odd function is the negativeof this reflection.

f(x) = x2 is even since f (-x) = (-x)

2 = x

2 = f (x). g(x) = x3 is odd since g(-x) = (-x)

3 = -x

3 = -g(x).

even odd

Instead of thinking of sin θ as a function of an angle θ,we can think of it as a function sin(t) of a real variable t.

MINUS THEOREM. sin(-t) = -sin(t), cos(-t) = cos(t), tan(-t) =-tan(t). Thus cos(t) is even; sin(t) and tan(t) are odd functions.

Proof.

t

1

-t

sin(t)

sin(-t)=-sin(t)cos(-t)=cos(t)

tan(-t) = sin(-t)/cos(-t) = -sin(t)/cos(t) = -tan(t).

DEFINITION. A function f is periodic with period p iff f (x + p) = f (x)

for all x. p must be the smallest such positive number.

2π THEOREM. sin(t+2π) = sin(t), cos(t+2π) = cos(t), forintegers n, sin(t+2nπ) = sin(t), cos(t+2nπ) = cos(t).

Proof.

tt+ π

(cos t, sin t)=(cos(t+2 ),sin(t+2 ))

(-cos t, -sin t) = (cos(t+ ), sin(t+ ))

t+2π

π π

π π

π THEOREM. sin(t+π) = -sin(t), cos(t+π) = -cos(t), tan(t+π) = tan(t).

For odd n, sin(t+nπ) = -sin(t), cos(t+nπ) = -cos(t).

Proof. See the picture for sin and cos. The terminal sides

of t + π and t have the same slope, τ tan(t + π) = tan(t).

sin and cos have period 2π, but tan has period π.

Simplify: .cos(3� − x)

Since 3 is odd, cos(3� − x) = − cos(−x) = − cos(x)

Previously we found reference angles in [0, π/2]geometrically. Now we can find them algebraically.

v Take out minus signs (use the Minus Theorem).

v Rewrite in terms of the nearest multiple of π.

v Throw out multiples of π (use 2π and π Theorems).

Rewrite with a reference angle in [0, π/2], then evaluate.

sin(-5π/6). sin(-5π/6) = -sin(5π/6).

0 = 0π/6 < 5π/6 < 6π/6 = π. 5π/6 is nearest 6π/6 = π.-sin(5π/6) = -sin(π−π/6) = sin(-π/6) = -sin(π/6) = -1/2.

cos(4π/3).

π = 3π/3 < 4π/3 < 6π/3. 4π/3 is nearest 3π/3 = π.cos(4π/3)=cos(3π/3+π/3)=cos(π+π/3) = -cos(π/3) = -1/2.

tan(-7π/4). tan(-7π/4) = -tan(7π/4).

π = 4π/4 < 7π/4 < 8π/4 = 2π. 7π/4 is nearest 8π/4 = 2π-tan(7π/4) = -tan(8π/4−π/4) = -tan(2π−π/4) = -tan(-π/4)

= tan(π/4) = sin(π/4)/cos(π/4) = 1.

sin(21π/2). 10π = 20π/2 < 21π/2 < 22π/2 = 11π.sin(21π/2)=sin(20π/2+π/2) = sin(10π+π/2) = sin(π/2) = 1.

cos(-31π/6) = cos(31π/6) = cos(30π/6 + π/6) =

cos(5π+π/6) = cos(π+4π+π/6) = -cos(π/6) = - . 3 /2

PYTHAGOREAN IDENTITIES. sin2t + cos2t = 1, tan2t +1 = sec2t,cot2t +1 = csc2t.

multiply both sides by cos2t. For the third, multiply bothsides by sin2t.

Math 140 Lecture 19Graphs of sin and cosRECALL. sin and cos have period 2p:

sin(x +2p) = sin(x), cos(x +2p) = cos(x). We often graph periodic functions only over one period, e.g., [0, 2p]. Before and after this interval, they repeat.

The two simplest solutions: q = p/6, and q = p-p/6 = 5p/6.Since sin(q) has period 2p, adding a multiple of 2p to

either of these also produces a solution. The general solution consists of the two sets

q = p/6 + 2pn or q = 5p/6 + 2pn for n an integer.

` Here we use x for the angle instead of q.cos x 12

The two simplest solutions are x = p/3 and x = -p/3. The general solution is

Inverse trigonometric functionsRECALL. A function is 1-1 iff no horizontal line crosses its

graph more than once. While not 1-1 in general, sin, cos, and tan are 1-1 on the

first quadrant angles in [0, p/2] and on the largerheavily marked “1-1” intervals.

DEFINITION. sin -1, cos

-1, tan -1 are the inverses of the above

restrictions of sin, cos, and tan. Thus sin

-1(x) = the q i[-p/2, p/2] such that sin(q) = x, cos

-1(x) = the q i[0, p] such that cos(q) = x, tan

-1(x) = the q i(-p/2, p/2) such that tan(q) = x. sin-1(x) and cos-1(x) have domain [-1, 1], for x2[-1, 1],

they are undefined. tan -1(x) has domain (-5,5).

NOTATION. sin -1(x), cos

-1(x) and tan -1(x) are also written:

arcsin(x), arccos(x), and arctan(x).

Warning, sin -1(x) = 1/sin(x). sin

-1(x) is the inverse; (sin(x))

-1 = 1/sin(x) is the reciprocal.

Math 140 Lecture 26CONVENTION. Assume side a is opposite angle A, side b is

opposite angle B and side c is opposite angle C. SINE LAWS. In any triangle, the ratio of one angle’s sine

and its opposite side equals the ratio of any otherangle’s sine and opposite side.

Although written as one, there are 3 equations. Each involves two

sides and two angles.

orsin Aa sin B

b sin Cc

asin A b

PROOF. Recall that the area of a triangle is half the productof any two sides times the sine of their included angle.

Thus the area of the triangle can be written three ways:

12 bc sin A 1

multiply by 2bcsinA ac sinB absinC

divide by abc

sin A

a sin Bb sin C

cCOSINE LAWS. For any two sides of a triangle, the sum of

their squares minus twice their product times the cos ofthe included angle equals the square of the third side.

Each involves three sides and one angle.

STRAIGHT ANGLE SUM FACT. The sum of a triangle’s 3angles is a straight angle.

VA +VB +VC = 180o = pIf you know two angles, you can solve for the third.

Solving for C gives VC = 180o - (VA +VB).

Today’s problems involve 4 quantities; each is a side oran angle whose measure is given or wanted. Usually --

v For 2 sides and 2 angles: use the sine law involving the2 sides (if necessary, get the third angle with theStraight Angle Sum Theorem).

DEFINITION. An ellipse is the set of all points such thatthe sum of the distances to two focus points is the distancebetween the vertices. The vertices are the two pointsfarthest apart. The major axis goes from a vertex at oneend of the ellipse through the two foci to the vertex at theopposite end. The minor axis is a perpendicular bisectorof the major axis.

A light ray emitted from one focus point is reflected tothe opposite focus point. Planetary orbits are ellipses.

Leta = major radius = ½ the major axis length. b = minor radius = ½ the minor axis length.c = focal radius = ½ the distance between the foci.

horizontal hyperbola

DEFINITION. A hyperbola is the set of all points such thatthe difference of the distances to two focal points is thedistance between the vertices. The focal axis through thetwo foci intersects the hyperbola at its two vertices. Themajor axis is the segment between the vertices, the minoraxis is a perpendicular bisector. The ends of the axes arethe midpoints of a box whose diagonals are asymptotes.The box corners and the foci are equidistant from thebox’s center. To get the foci, draw an arc around the boxcenter from the box corner to the focal axis.

The path of a stone thrown upward (in a vertical gravitationalfield) is a parabola. The path of an orbiting comet is an ellipse withthe sun at one focus. The path of a comet passing through the solarsystem is one piece of a hyperbola with the sun at one focal point.

Leta = the major radius = ½ major axis length. b = the minor radius = ½ the minor axis length. c = the diagonal radius = ½ the hyperbola box diagonal = the focal radius = ½ the distance between the foci.

Math 140 Lecture 31 (omitted)Note the difference between parabolas, ellipses, and

hyperbolas. v If only one variable is squared, it is a parabola.

Write with the squared variable on the left.Vertical parabola like y = x2

or y =x a2 ky b-x2

Horizontal parabola.y b2 kx a

Suppose both variables are squared. If necessary,complete and replace by x and by y. x c y d

Write with 1 on the right, squares in the denominators.

v Horizontal ellipse: with a > b > 0. Bigger first.x2

v Horizontal hyperbola: . Positive first.x2

v Vertical hyperbola: . y2

There is clearly a missing case,

, but this is impossible since the left side x2

a2 y2

b2 1is negative and thus cannot equal 1 which is positive.

Second degree equations such as whichx2 xy y2 1involve a product of x and y are also parabolas, ellipsesand hyperbolas but their axes may be slanted ratherthan horizontal or vertical. The simplest example is

. Solving for y gives . The graph is xy 1 y 1x

In this case the focal axis of the hyperbola is the major diagonal . Except for this graph you won’t be y xasked to graph equations with a slanted axis. Such graphs can be quite difficult and require techniques which aren’t covered until upper division linearalgebra.

Identify each of the following as a horizontal/vertical parabola/ellipse/hyperbola. Graph.

Check your graphs by calculating the x and y intercepts.

` . x squared, y not: vertical parabola. x2 y 2If we didn’t have to find the focus and directrix wecould easily graph this by rewriting it as: . y 2 x2

x2 y 2 x2 y 2

This is shifted up 2 units. x2 yk = -1, p = k/4 = -1/4. center: (0, 0) shifts to (0, 2). focus: (0, p) = (0, -1/4) shifts to (0, -1/4 + 2) = (0, 7/4).

directrix: y = -p ƒ y =1/4 shifts to y = 1/4 + 2 = 9/4.

To locate the foci, set yourcompass to the distance betweenthe center and a vertex. Then put the compass point at an endpoint of the minor axis.

The arc of the pencil end willintersect the major axis at thetwo foci.
