1 Precalculus College Algebra Review for Final Name It is also a good idea to go back through your old tests and quizzes to review. 1. Find (+1) given ()= Determine () given ()=+2 and ()= (+1)=3(+1) +1 =3( +2+1)+1 = = ()= Find the domain and range of the function ()= To find the domain, we look at the vertical asymptote(s) (where denominator equals zero) (+9)( 4) 0 9, 4 To find the range, we look at the horizontal asymptote 4. Find the domain of the function ()= 5+2 lim =0 0 The denominator cannot equal zero and we cannot do the square root of a negative number, so we solve 5. Graph ()= >0 > 2

2 6. Graph ()= Determine the vertex of ()= Vertex is at =, then plug in that x-value in the equation to find the y-value

3 = 24 = = 24 6 = 4 ( 4)=3( 4) +24( 4) 1= = = 48 1= 49 ( 4, 49) 8. Determine the equation of a parabola with vertex ( 5, 1) that goes through the point (3,1) The general equation is ()=( h) +. The vertex tells us (h,) and then we can plug in the other point to solve for. 9. Find the inverse function of ()=7+2 ()=(+5) 1 1=(3+5) 1 2=(8) 2=64 = 1 32 ()= 1 32 (+5) 1 First we switch the x and y values, then we solve for y =7+2 2= = ()= Find each zero and its multiplicity then graph ()=(+3) (4+3)( 4) To find the zeros we set the y-value equal to zero and solve for x 0=(+3) (4+3)( 4) 0=(+3) ;0=4+3;0= 4 0=+3; 3=4;4=

4 3=; 3 =; ±2= 4 = 3 ( 2), 3 ( 1),2 ( 1), 2 ( 1) 4 To graph use the zeros along with odd multiplicities crossing and even multiplicities touching along with at least one test point 11. Determine all of the possible rational zeros, find each zero and its multiplicity, and then graph ()= To find the zeros we look at factors of the last term over factors of the first term ± 1,2,4,5,10,20 1 =±1,±2,±4,±5,±10,±20 To help us find what zero to attempt with the synthetic division we can look at its graph

5 This function appears to have a root at 2 with an even multiplicity: Now we have factored =( 2)( ) and we now have to solve =0, so we will continue with the synthetic division using the root of 2 again Now we have factored =( 2) ( +5) and we need to solve + 5=0 +5=0 = 5 =± 5 =± 5 =2( 2); 5( 1); 5( 1) I already showed the graph above

6 12. Find each zero and its multiplicity, the y-intercept, the vertical asymptote(s), the horizontal asymptote, and then graph ()= Zeros will occur where the y value is 0: y-intercept will occur where the x value is 0: 0= =+2 = 2 ( 2,0) = = 2 9 0, 2 9 Vertical asymptotes will occur where the y-value goes to infinity, which happens when the bottom equals zero: 9=0 =9 =±3 Horizontal asymptote will occur where the x-value goes to infinity: = lim =0

7 13. Write the equation of a polynomial with rational coefficients and the zeros 3,2,5 ()=( 3) (2 ) (2+)( 5)(+5) ()=( 3)( 2+)( 2 )( 5)(+5) 14. Determine the remainder of (4 2 +1) (+3) Thus the remainder is Determine the maximum number of turning points of ()= Since the degree is 7, the maximum number of turning points (aka local max s and local min s) is Graph then determine the domain, range, and horizontal asymptote of ()= Using a base graph of 2 you can determine the points x y -1 ½ Along with an base asymptote of =0. Using transformations of +1; 3+4 you end up with the graph

8 :R;: >4;h :=4 17. Graph then determine the domain, range, and vertical asymptote of ()=2 log (+2)+1 Using a base graph of log we can determine the following points using the inverse 3 Inverse Base x y x y -1 1/3 1/ Along with a vertical asymptote of =0. Using transformations of 2; 2+1 you end up with the graph 18. Solve the equation 7 = Solve the equation 3( +2)=60 : > 2;:R; := 2 log 7 =log 20 =log 20= ln20 ln ( +2) = =20

9 =18 = 18 = Solve the equation 2log (+4)=9 2log (+4) = log (+4)= () = Solve the equation log( 2)+log( 3)=2 log( 2)( 3)=2 log( 5+6)=2 10 =10 5+6= =0 = 5±( 5) 4(1)( 94) 2(1) 12.51, 7.51 Removing the extraneous solution we have the solution: 22.

Determine the equation of the parabola given a vertex of (2,3) and focus (4,3) When you sketch a graph you can see that it opens to the right, which means that it will be = with a positive a value The coordinates of the vertex give us h and k h=2;=3 The distance between the vertex and the focus is 2, so we can set that equal to and solve for a 2= 1 4 2= 1 4 ; 2= 1 4 2= 1 4 ; 2=1 4 =± 1 8 We know a has to be positive, so the final equation is = 1 8 ( 3) Determine the equation of the parabola given a focus of (6, 2) and directrix =0
