Assignment # 1

• You must submit your solutions to your TA before the announced deadline.

• You are allowed to ask or discuss your TA for a hint.

√
1. Prove that 2 is an irrational number.
2. Solve the inequality: |x2 − x + 2| > 1.

3. Find the domain of the functions:

√
5 (b) g(x) = e 3x2 +2x−3
.
(a) f (x) = √ .
2
x + 3x − 10
3x
4. Show that f (x) = is 1 − 1 function, then find its inverse.
3x + 1
5. Find the equation of the straight line that

(a) passes through (7, −1) and (0, 5)

(b) passes through (1, 2) and has a slope 3/4
(c) passes through (−6, 5) and has no slope.
(d) passes through (2, 2) and parallel to the line −x + 5y = 3.
(e) passes through (0, 1) and perpendicular to the line 8x − 13y = 13.

6. Using shifts and reflections, sketch the graph of the following functions. Show all steps and find
the x- and y- intercepts in the final graph. From the graph find the domain, the range and if the
function is 1 − 1 or not.

(a) f (x) = 3 − 2 log(10 − 5x) (d) f (x) = 1 − 2e−2−2x

(b) f (x) = 2 ln |x + 2| + 1 π
(e) f (x) = cos(2x + )
x2 − 2x − 1 2
(c) f (x) = 2 (f) f (x) = 1 + tanh(2x − 2)
x − 2x + 1
