Graph y = f(x). Be careful to correctly describe the behavior of the graph near the integers. 92, Is f even, odd, or neither? Explain. 93, Discuss with your classmates which points on the graph are local minimums, local maximums or both, Is f ever increasing? Decreasing? Constant?

One of the most important aspects of the Cartesian Coordinate Plane is its ability to put Algebra into geometric terms and Geometry into algebraic terms. We've spent most of this chapter looking at this very phenomenon and now you should spend some time with your classmates reviewing what we've done. What major results do we have that tie Algebra and Geometry together? What concepts from Geometry have we not yet described algebraically? What topics from Intermediate Algebra have we not yet discussed geometrically? It's now time to “thoroughly vet the pathologies induced” by the precise definitions of local maxi mum and local minimum, We'll do this by providing you and your classmates a series of Exercises to discuss, You will need to refer back to Definition 1.10 (Increasing, Decreasing and Constant) and Definition 1.11 (Maximum and Minimum) during the discussion, 99. Consider the graph of the function f given below.12 RELATIONS AND Func (a) Show that f has a local maximum but not a local minimum at the point (—1, 1) (b) Show that f has a local minimum but not a local maximum at the point (1, 1) (c) Show that f has a local maximum AND a local minimum at the point (0,1) (d) Show that is constant on the interval |—1,1) and thus has both a local maximum AND a local minimum at every point (2, f(x)) where 1 ) Funetion II1.6 Grarus oF Funetioxs (a) Function IV 1131.6.3 A) SWERS 1 f(e)=2-2 Domain: (—00, 00) intercept: (2,0) geintercept: (0,2) No symmetry 2 see) = 2? 3 Domain: (—90, 00) a-intereept: (2,0) yintercept: (0,2) No symmetry 3. fl) =a 41 Domain: (—00, cc) aeintereept: None yeintercept: (0,1) Even a. f(x) Domain: (—90, 00) a-intercepts: (2,0), (2,0) srintercept: (0,4) Even 5. f(x) =2 Domain: (—o0, 00) z-intereept: None geintercept: (0,2) Even, RELATIONS AND F1.6 Grarus oF Funetioxs 6. fle) = 28 Domain: (—oe, c0) intercept: (0,0) y-intercept: (0,0) Odd 1. f(a) = 2(e- Ile +2) Domain: (—0°, 00) z-intercepts: (—2,0), (0,0), (1,0) y-intercept: (0,0) No symmetry 8. f(z) = ve-2 Domain: [2, 00) seintereept: (2,0) yrintercept: None No symmetry 9. fe) = V5—e Domain: (—oo, 5| x-intercept: (5,0) yeintercept: (0, v5) No symmetry
