PART ONE: EVEN OR ODD?

1. Examine the validity of the following statements:

 The composition of two odd functions is odd.
 The composition of two even function is even.
 The direct sum of an even and an odd function is odd.
 The quotient of two even functions is even.

If true, prove the statement. If false, disprove it with a counterexample. Your response should start with
formal definitions of odd and even functions.

PART TWO: NEW FUNCTIONS FROM OLD FUNCTIONS.

2. Consider the function f(x) defined by y  x 3  2 x 1 . Write the equation of the new function in
each of the following transformations:

i. Stretch graph of f(x) vertically by a factor of 2. (5 points)

ii. Compress graph of f(x) vertically by a factor of 2. (5 points)
iii. Compress graph of f(x) horizontally by a factor of 3. (5 points)
iv. Stretch graph of f(x) horizontally by a factor of 3. (5 points)
v. Reflect the graph of f(x) about the x-axis. (5 points)
vi. Reflect the graph of f(x) about the y axis. (5 points)
vii. Shift graph of f(x) vertically up by 9 units. (5 points)
viii. Shift graph of f(x) vertically down by 9 units. (5 points)
ix. Shift graph of f(x) horizontally to the right by 9 units. (5 points)
x. Shift graph of f(x) horizontally to the left by 9 units. (5 points)

"impressions," and if you got a different "impression," so what, can't we
all be brothers?”
