Math 107 Assignment Solution

Name: [Your Name Here]
I have completed this assignment myself, working independently and not consulting anyone except the instructor.

1. Graph of Functions

Answer(s):
(A), (B), (C)

2. Midpoint and Radius of Circle

(a) The midpoint \( M \) of the line segment joining points \( (-5, -6) \) and \( (2, 4) \) can be calculated as follows:
\[
M = \left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{-5 + 2}{2}, \frac{-6 + 4}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{-3}{2}, \frac{-2}{2} \right) = \left( -\frac{3}{2}, -1 \right)
\]
(b) The radius \( r \) of the circle can be found using the distance formula:
\[
r = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} = \sqrt{\left(-\frac{3}{2} - (-5)\right)^2 + \left(-1 - (-6)\right)^2}
\]
Calculating this:
\[
= \sqrt{ \left(\frac{-3}{2} + 5\right)^2 + (5)^2} = \sqrt{ \left(\frac{7}{2}\right)^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{\frac{49}{4} + 25} = \sqrt{\frac{49}{4} + \frac{100}{4}} = \sqrt{\frac{149}{4}} = \frac{\sqrt{149}}{2}
\]

3. Analyze the Graph of \( y = f(x) \)

Assuming no graph is given, here is a generic answer:
(a) x-intercept(s): \( (x, 0) \)
(b) y-intercept(s): \( (0, y) \)
(c) Domain: \( (a, b) \) in interval notation.
(d) Range: \( [c, d] \) in interval notation.

4. Function Calculations

Given \( g(y) = y + 12(y - 6)^2 \):
(a) \( g(-4) = -4 + 12 \cdot (-4 - 6)^2 = -4 + 12 \cdot 100 = 1196 \)
(b) The domain of \( g(y) \) is all real numbers: \( (-\infty, \infty) \).
(c) \( g(y + 2) = (y + 2) + 12((y + 2) - 6)^2 = (y + 2) + 12(y - 4)^2 \).

5. Function Definition and Domain

(a) The final expression for \( f(x) \) is given by:
\[
f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{-2x + 4}}
\]
(b) The domain of \( f \) in interval notation is \( (-\infty, 2] \).

6. Domain of the Quotient Function

The quotient function \( \frac{g(y)}{f(y)} \) is defined wherever both functions are defined and \( f(y) \neq 0 \). The correct answer is:
D. \( (-\infty, -2) \cup (-2, \infty) \), as \( f(y) = y - 4 \) has a critical point at \( y = 4 \).

7. Income Tax Calculation

(a) For \( x = 4300 \):
\[
T(4300) = 70 + 0.035(4300 - 2500) = 70 + 0.035 \cdot 1800 = 70 + 63 = 133
\]
(b) For \( x = 8700 \):
\[
T(8700) = 4250 + 6 \cdot 6200 = 4250 + 37200 = 41450
\]

8. Graph of \( y = 6 - x^2 \)

(a) x-intercepts:
\[
6 - x^2 = 0 \implies x^2 = 6 \implies x = \pm\sqrt{6}
\]
(b) y-intercept: \( (0, 6) \)
(c) Sample points are \((0, 6), (1, 5), (2, 2), (3, -3), (-1, 5), (-2, 2)\).
(d) The graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis: Yes.

9. Function Evaluations

(a) \( (g - f)(-2) = g(-2) - f(-2) = (1 + 4) - (4 + 2 + 8) = 5 - 14 = -9 \)
(b) \( (f \cdot g)(-1) = (4(-1)^2 + 2(-1) - 8)(1 + 2) = (4 - 2 - 8)(3) = (-6)(3) = -18 \)
(c) \( (f - g)(x) = (4x^2 + 2x - 8) - (1 - 2x) \).

10. Economic Functions

(a) \( C(200) = 4250 + 6(200) = 4250 + 1200 = 5450 \); the cost to produce 200 widgets is 50.
(b) The average cost function \(\frac{C(200)}{200} = \frac{5450}{200} = 27.25\); average cost per widget.
(c) Revenue function \( R(x) = p(x) \cdot x = (25 - 0.02x) \cdot x = 25x - 0.02x^2 \).
(d) Profit function \( P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = (25x - 0.02x^2) - (4250 + 6x) \).
(e) \( P(200) = (25(200) - 0.02(200^2)) - 5450 = 5000 - 800 - 5450 = -250; \) interpret as a loss.
