1. Graph the function f ( x )=3 √3 x +4 .

2. Solve the equation −7+ √ x−2=−4 .

3. Find the domain of the function f ( x )= √ x +8.

4. What is an extraneous solution to √ 15 x +10−3=3 ?

5. What is the parent function of the functions f ( x )= √3 x−7+ 3?

6. How many solutions does x=√ 3 x+ 28 have?

8. For a spinning amusement park ride, the velocity v in meters per second of a car moving around a
curve with a radius r meters is given by v=√ ar , where a is the car’s acceleration in m/s2. If the
cars on the ride have a radius of 10 m and a maximum acceleration of 25.6 m/s2, what is the
velocity of the car?

Short Answer.
9. What value of x makes √3 4 x +12=4 a true statement?
