Question 1 Let f (x) = x. Question 3 Let f (x) = x x2 − 1 and g(x) = x3 − x.
1. Evaluate f (4). 1. Find the domain of function f .
Solution Solution :
√ :
f (4) = 4 = 2 Dimain of f is the set {x ∈ R|x ≥ 1}.

2. Evaluate f (t+h)−f (t)

h
Solution : Solution :
√ √ Since the dimain of f is the set {x ∈ R|x ≥ 1},
f (t + h) − f (t) t+h− t and −1 is not in its domain. Therefore f is

Therefore, f is neither an odd function nor an
even function.

2. g(x) = 3
x − sin x
Solution :√
√
g(−x) = 3 −x − sin(−x) = − 3 x + sin x =
−g(x).
Therefore, g is an odd function.

3. h(x) = sin x2 + 1
Solution :
h(−x) = sin (−x)2 + 1 = sin x2 + 1 = h(x).
Therefore, h is an even function.

Question 6 給一個在你的專業上 (化工、土木、材

料、機械) 使用函數的實例，請詳細描述，不要只提
出名詞而已。你可能需要請教你的學長姐。
