47. Since a horizontal line not through the origin is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, but not with respect to the origin, the function is even. 48. f ( x)  x 5  15 and f ( x)  ( x) 5  x

    f ( x). Thus the function is odd.

1  1 x5 (  x )5

49. Since f ( x)  x 2  1  ( x) 2  1  f ( x). The function is even. 50. Since [ f ( x)  x 2  x]  [ f ( x)  ( x) 2  x] and [ f ( x)  x 2  x ]  [ f ( x)  ( x) 2  x] the function is neither even nor odd. 51. Since g ( x)  x3  x, g ( x)   x3  x  ( x3  x)   g ( x). So the function is odd. 52. g ( x)  x 4  3 x 2  1  ( x) 4  3( x) 2  1  g (  x), thus the function is even. 53. g ( x) 

54. g ( x) 

So h(t )  h(t ).  h(t )  2t  1, so h(t )   h(t ). The function is neither even nor odd. 58. h(t )  2| t |  1 and h(t )  2|  t |  1  2| t |  1. So h(t )  h(t ) and the function is even. 59. g ( x)  sin 2 x; g ( x)   sin 2 x   g ( x). So the function is odd. 60. g ( x)  sin x 2 ; g ( x)  sin x 2  g ( x ). So the function is even. 61. g ( x)  cos3 x; g ( x)  cos3x  g ( x). So the function is even. 62. g ( x)  1  cos x; g ( x)  1  cos x  g ( x). So the function is even. 63. s  kt  25  k (75)  k  13  s  13 t ; 60  13 t  t  180 64.

Solution interval: (2, 0)  (4, )

72. (a) From the graph, x 3 1  x 2 1  x  (, 5)  (1, 1) 3( x  1)

(b) Case x  1: x 3 1  x 2 1  x  1  2  3 x  3  2 x  2  x  5. Thus, x  (, 5) solves the inequality. 3( x  1) Case 1  x  1: x 3 1  x 2 1  x  1  2  3 x  3  2 x  2  x  5 which is true if x  1. Thus, x  (1, 1) solves the inequality. Case 1  x : x 3 1  x 2 1  3 x  3  2 x  2  x  5

which is never true if 1  x, so no solution here. In conclusion, x  (, 5)  (1, 1).

73. A curve symmetric about the x-axis will not pass the vertical line test because the points (x, y) and ( x,  y ) lie on the same vertical line. The graph of the function y  f ( x)  0 is the x-axis, a horizontal line for which there is a single y-value, 0, for any x. 74. price  40  5 x, quantity  300  25x  R( x)  (40  5 x)(300  25 x) 75. x 2  x 2  h 2  x  h  2

76. (a) Note that 2 mi  10, 560 ft, so there are 8002  x 2 feet of river cable at $180 per foot and (10,560  x) feet of land cable at $100 per foot. The cost is C ( x)  180 8002  x 2  100(10,560 - x).

75. The function g(x) is also one-to-one. The reasoning: f(x) is one-to-one means that if x1  x2 then f ( x1 )  f ( x2 ), so  f ( x1 )   f ( x2 ) and therefore g ( x1 )  g ( x2 ). Therefore g(x) is one-to-one as well. 76. The function h(x) is also one-to-one. The reasoning: f(x) is one-to-one means that if x1  x2 then f ( x1 )  f ( x2 ), so f (1x )  f (1x ) , and therefore h( x1 )  h( x2 ). 1

77. The composition is one-to-one also. The reasoning: If x1  x2 then g ( x1 )  g ( x2 ) because g is one-to-one. Since g ( x1 )  g ( x2 ), we also have f ( g ( x1 ))  f ( g ( x2 )) because f is one-to-one; thus, f  g is one-to-one because x1  x2  f ( g ( x1 ))  f ( g ( x2 )).

78. Yes, g must be one-to-one. If g were not one-to-one, there would exist numbers x1  x2 in the domain of g with g ( x1 )  g ( x2 ). For these numbers we would also have f ( g ( x1 ))  f ( g ( x2 )), contradicting the assumption that f  g is one-to-one. 79. (a)

1. There are (infinitely) many such function pairs. For example, f ( x)  3 x and g ( x)  4 x satisfy f ( g ( x))  f (4 x)  3(4 x)  12 x  4(3x)  g (3x)  g ( f ( x)). 2. Yes, there are many such function pairs. For example, if g ( x)  (2 x  3)3 and f ( x)  x1/3 , then ( f  g )( x)  f ( g ( x))  f ((2 x  3)3 )  ((2 x  3)3 )1/3  2 x  3.

3. If f is odd and defined at x, then f ( x)   f ( x). Thus g (  x)  f (  x)  2   f ( x)  2 whereas  g ( x)  ( f ( x)  2)   f ( x)  2. Then g cannot be odd because g (  x)   g ( x)   f ( x) 2   f ( x)  2  4  0, which is a contradiction. Also, g ( x) is not even unless f ( x)  0 for all x. On the other hand, if f is even, then g ( x)  f ( x)  2 is also even: g (  x)  f (  x)  2  f ( x)  2  g ( x). 4. If g is odd and g(0) is defined, then g (0)  g ( 0)   g (0). Therefore, 2 g (0)  0  g (0)  0 . 5. For (x, y) in the 1st quadrant, | x |  | y |  1  x  x  y  1  x  y  1 .

In the 4th quadrant, | x |  | y |  x  1  x  ( y )  x  1  y  1. The graph is given at the right. 6. We use reasoning similar to Exercise 5. (1) 1st quadrant: y  | y |  x  | x |  2 y  2 x  y  x. (2) 2nd quadrant: y  | y |  x  | x |  2 y  x  ( x)  0  y  0. (3) 3rd quadrant: y  | y |  x  | x |  y  ( y )  x  ( x)  0  0  all points in the 3rd quadrant satisfy the equation. (4) 4th quadrant: y  | y |  x  | x |  y  ( y )  2 x  0  x. Combining these results we have the graph given at the right. sin 2 x

11. If f is even and odd, then f (  x)   f ( x) and f (  x)  f ( x)  f ( x)   f ( x) for all x in the domain of f. Thus 2 f ( x)  0  f ( x)  0. f ( x)  f ( x) f (  x )  f (  (  x )) f ( x)  f ( x)  E ( x)    E ( x)  E is an even 2 2 2 f (  x)  f  ( x)  f ( x)  f ( x) f ( x)  f ( x)  . Then O( x)  function. Define O( x)  f ( x)  E ( x)  f ( x)  2 2 2 f ( x)  f ( x) f ( x)  f ( x)    O( x)  O is an odd function  f ( x)  E ( x)  O( x) is the sum of an 2 2

12. (a) As suggested, let E ( x) 

even and an odd function. (b) Part (a) shows that f ( x)  E ( x)  O( x) is the sum of an even and an odd function. If also f ( x)  E1 ( x)  O1 ( x), where E1 is even and O1 is odd, then f ( x)  f ( x)  0  ( E1 ( x)  O1 ( x))  ( E ( x)  O( x)) . Thus, E ( x)  E1 ( x)  O1 ( x)  O( x) for all x in the domain of f (which is the same as the domain of E  E1 and O  O1 ). Now ( E  E1 )( x)  E (  x)  E1 ( x)  E ( x)  E1 ( x) (since E and E1 are even)  ( E  E1 )( x)  E  E1 is even. Likewise, (O1  O)( x)  O1 ( x )  O(  x )  O1 ( x)  (O( x)) (since O and O1 are odd)   (O1 ( x)  O( x))  (O1  O) ( x)  O1  O is odd. Therefore, E  E1 and O1  O are both even and odd so they must be zero at each x in the domain of f by Exercise 11. That is, E1  E and O1  O, so the decomposition of f found in part (a) is unique. 13.

Decreasing a causes a vertical stretching and a shift of the vertex toward the y-axis and downward. (b) If a  0 the graph is a parabola that opens upward.

If a  0 the graph is a parabola that opens downward. If b  0, increasing b shifts the graph upward to the right. If b  0, decreasing b shifts the graph upward to the left.

14. (a) If a  0, the graph rises to the right of the vertical line x  b and falls to the left. If a < 0, the graph falls to the right of the line x  b and rises to the left. If a  0 , the graph reduces to the horizontal line y  c. As | a | increases, the slope at any given point x  x0 increases in magnitude and the graph becomes steeper. As | a | decreases, the slope at x0 decreases in magnitude and the graph rises or falls more gradually. (b) Increasing b shifts the graph to the left; decreasing b shifts it to the right. (c) Increasing c shifts the graph upward; decreasing c shifts it downward. 15. Each of the triangles pictured has the same base b  vt  v (1 sec) . Moreover, the height of each triangle is the same value h. Thus 12 (base)(height)  12 bh  A1  A2  A3  … . In conclusion, the object sweeps out equal areas in each one second interval.

Note that f (d )  ad  b and g (b)  cb  d , thus ( f  g )( x)  ( g  f )( x) if f (d )  g (b). 19. (a) The expression a(bc  x )  d is defined for all values of x, so the domain is (, ). Since bc  x attains all positive values, the range is (d, ) if a > 0 and the range is (d, ) if a < 0. (b) The expression a logb ( x  c)  d is defined when x  c > 0, so the domain is (c, ). Since a logb ( x  c)  d attains every real value for some value of x, the range is (, ).

change will be almost the same as the average rate of change, thus the instantaneous speed at t  12 is 157.5  15 mi/hr. At P (2, 20): Since the portion of the graph from t  2 to t  2.5 is nearly linear, the 10.5  20  0 mi/hr. instantaneous rate of change will be nearly the same as the average rate of change, thus v  20 2.5 2 For values of t less than 2, we have the following.

Q Q1 (1, 15)

Q2 (1.5, 19) Q3 (1.9, 19.9)

Slope of PQ  st 15 20  5 mi/hr 1 2 19  20  2 mi/hr 1.5 2 19.9  20  1 mi/hr 1.9  2

Thus, it appears that the instantaneous speed at t  2 is 0 mi/hr. At P(3, 22):

Q Q1 (4, 35) Q2 (3.5, 30) Q3 (3.1, 23)

Slope of PQ  st 35 22  13 mi/hr 4 3 30  22  16 mi/hr 3.53 23 22  10 mi/hr 3.13

Q Q1 (2, 20) Q2 (2.5, 20)

Q3 (2.9, 21.6)

Slope of PQ  st 20 22  2 mi/hr 2 3 20 22  4 mi/hr 2.53 21.6 22  4 mi/hr 2.9 3

Thus, it appears that the instantaneous speed at t  3 is about 7 mi/hr. (c) It appears that the curve is increasing the fastest at t  3.5. Thus for P(3.5, 30) Slope of PQ  st Slope of PQ  st Q Q Q1 (4, 35) Q2 (3.75, 34) Q3 (3.6, 32)

3530  10 mi/hr 43.5 34 30  16 mi/hr 3.753.5 32 30  20 mi/hr 3.6 3.5

Q1 (3, 22)

Q2 (3.25, 25) Q3 (3.4, 28)

2230  16 mi/hr 33.5 2530  20 mi/hr 3.253.5 2830  20 mi/hr 3.4 3.5

Thus, it appears that the instantaneous speed at t  3.5 is about 20 mi/hr. gal

(b) At P(1, 14):

Q Q1 (2, 12.2) Q2 (1.5, 13.2) Q3 (1.1, 13.85)

Slope of PQ  At 12.2 14  1.8 gal/day 21 13.2 14  1.6 gal/day 1.51 13.8514  1.5 gal/day 1.11

Q Q1 (0, 15) Q2 (0.5, 14.6) Q3 (0.9, 14.86)

Slope of PQ  At 1514  1 gal/day 0 1 14.6 14  1.2 gal/day 0.51 14.86 14  1.4 gal/day 0.9 1

Thus, it appears that the instantaneous rate of consumption at t  1 is about 1.45 gal/day. At P (4, 6): Slope of PQ  At Q Slope of PQ  At Q Q1 (5, 3.9) Q2 (4.5, 4.8)

10 6  4 gal/day 3 4 7.86  3.6 gal/day 3.5 4 6.36  3 gal/day 3.9  4

Thus, it appears that the instantaneous rate of consumption at t  1 is 3 gal/day. (solution continues on next page)

Thus, it appears that the instantaneous rate of consumption at t  1 is 0.55 gal/day. (c) It appears that the curve (the consumption) is decreasing the fastest at t  3.5.

1. (a) Does not exist. As x approaches 1 from the right, g ( x) approaches 0. As x approaches 1 from the left, g ( x) approaches 1. There is no single number L that all the values g ( x) get arbitrarily close to as x  1. (b) 1 (c) 0 (d) 0.5 2. (a) 0 (b) 1 (c) Does not exist.

There is no number L that all the function values get arbitrarily close to as x  1, so lim x11 does not exist. x 1

7. Nothing can be said about f ( x) because the existence of a limit as x  x0 does not depend on how the function is defined at x0 . In order for a limit to exist, f ( x) must be arbitrarily close to a single real number L when x is close enough to x0 . That is, the existence of a limit depends on the values of f ( x) for x near x0 , not on the definition of f ( x) at x0 itself. Copyright  2023 Pearson Education, Inc.

8. Nothing can be said. In order for lim f ( x) to exist, f ( x) must close to a single value for x near 0 regardless of x 0

the value f (0) itself.

9. No, the definition does not require that f be defined at x  1 in order for a limiting value to exist there. If f (1) is defined, it can be any real number, so we can conclude nothing about f (1) from lim f ( x)  5. x 1

10. No, because the existence of a limit depends on the values of f ( x) when x is near 1, not on f (1) itself. If lim f ( x) exists, its value may be some number other than f (1)  5. We can conclude nothing about lim f ( x), x 1

whether it exists or what its value is if it does exist, from knowing the value of f (1) alone. 11.

x  0: 2 x  0      2 x  0   2  x  0; x  0: 2x  0    0  x  2.

Step 2:

x  0      x   . Then    2    2 , or   2   2. Choose   2 , or any smaller

positive value. 49. By the figure,  x  x sin 1x  x for all x  0 and  x  x sin 1x  x for x  0. Since lim ( x)  lim x  0, then by x 0

the Sandwich Theorem, in either case, lim x sin 1x  0.

50. By the figure,  x 2  x 2 sin 1x  x 2 for all x except possibly at x  0. Since lim ( x 2 )  lim x 2  0, then by the Sandwich Theorem, lim x 2 sin 1x  0.

51. As x approaches the value 0, the values of g ( x) approach k. Thus for every number   0, there exists a   0 such that 0  x  0    g ( x)  k  . 52. Write x  h  c. Then 0  x  c      x  c   , x  c    (h  c) c   , h  c  c    h   , h  0  0  h  0   . Thus, lim f ( x)  L  for any   0, there exists   0 such that f ( x)  L   x c

whenever 0  x  c    f (h  c)  L   whenever 0  h  0    lim f (h  c)  L. h0

53. Let f ( x)  x 2 . The function values do get closer to 1 as x approaches 0, but lim f ( x)  0, not 1. The function f ( x)  x 2 never gets arbitrarily close to 1 for x near 0.

54. Let f ( x)  sin x, L  12 , and x0  0. There exists a value of x (namely x  6 ) for which sin x  12   for any

given   0. However, lim sin x  0, not 12 . The wrong statement does not require x to be arbitrarily close to x0 . x 0

As another example, let g ( x)  sin 1x , L  12 , and x0  0. We can choose infinitely many values of x near 0 such that sin 1x  12 as you can see from the accompanying figure. However, lim sin 1x fails to exist. The wrong x 0

statement does not require all values of x arbitrarily close to x0  0 to lie within   0 of L  12 . Again you can see from the figure that there are also infinitely many values of x near 0 such that sin 1x  0. If we choose   14

we cannot satisfy the inequality sin 1x  12   for all values of x sufficiently near x0  0.

57. (a)   x  1  0  1    x  1  f ( x)  x. Then f ( x)  2  x  2  2  x  2  1  1. That is, f ( x)  2  1  12 no matter how small  is taken when 1    x  1  lim f ( x)  2. x 1

(b) 0  x  1    1  x  1    f ( x)  x  1. Then f ( x)  1  ( x  1)  1  x  x  1. That is, f ( x)  1  1 no matter how small  is taken when 1  x  1    lim f ( x)  1. x 1

(c)   x  1  0  1    x  1  f ( x)  x. Then f ( x)  1.5  x  1.5  1.5  x  1.5  1  0.5. Also, 0  x  1    1  x  1    f ( x)  x  1. Then f ( x)  1.5  ( x  1)  1.5  x  0.5  x  0.5  1  0.5  0.5. Thus, no matter how small  is taken, there exists a value of x such that   x  1   but f ( x)  1.5  12  lim f ( x)  1.5. x 1

58. (a) For 2  x  2    h( x)  2  h( x)  4  2. Thus for   2, h( x)  4   whenever 2  x  2   no matter how small we choose   0  lim h( x)  4. x2

(b) For 2  x  2    h( x)  2  h( x)  3  1. Thus for   1, h( x)  3   whenever 2  x  2   no matter how small we choose   0  lim h( x)  3. 2

x2

(c) For 2    x  2  h( x)  x so h( x)  2  x 2  2 . No matter how small   0 is chosen, x 2 is close to 4 when x is near 2 and to the left on the real line  x 2  2 will be close to 2. Thus if   1, h( x)  2   whenever 2    x  2 no matter how small we choose   0  lim h( x)  2. x2

59. (a) For 3    x  3  f ( x)  4.8  f ( x)  4  0.8. Thus for   0.8, f ( x)  4   whenever 3    x  3 no matter how small we choose   0  lim f ( x)  4. x 3

(b) For 3  x  3    f ( x)  3  f ( x)  4.8  1.8. Thus for   1.8, f ( x)  4.8   whenever 3  x  3   no matter how small we choose   0  lim f ( x)  4.8. x 3

(c) For 3    x  3  f ( x)  4.8  f ( x)  3  1.8. Again, for   1.8, f ( x)  3   whenever 3    x  3 no matter how small we choose   0  lim f ( x)  3. x 3

60. (a) No matter how small we choose   0, for x near 1 satisfying 1    x  1   , the values of g ( x) are near 1  g ( x)  2 is near 1. Then, for   12 we have g ( x)  2  12 for some x satisfying 1    x  1   , or 0  x  1    lim g ( x)  2. x 1

(b) Yes, lim g ( x )  1 because from the graph we can find a   0 such that g ( x)  1   if 0  x  (1)   . x 1

59. f ( x) is continuous on [0, 1] and f (0)  0, f (1)  0  by the Intermediate Value Theorem f ( x) takes on every value between f (0) and f (1)  the equation f ( x)  0 has at least one solution between x  0 and x  1.

61. Let f ( x)  x3  15 x  1, which is continuous on [4, 4]. Then f (4)  3, f (1)  15, f (1)  13, and f (4)  5. By the Intermediate Value Theorem, f ( x)  0 for some x in each of the intervals 4  x  1, 1  x  1, and 1  x  4. That is, x3  15 x  1  0 has three solutions in [4, 4]. Since a polynomial of degree 3 can have at most 3 solutions, these are the only solutions. 62. Without loss of generality, assume that a  b. Then F ( x)  ( x  a )2 ( x  b)2  x is continuous for all values of x, so it is continuous on the interval [ a, b]. Moreover F ( a )  a and F (b)  b. By the Intermediate Value Theorem, since a  a 2 b  b, there is a number c between a and b such that F ( x)  a 2 b . 63. Answers may vary. Note that f is continuous for every value of x. (a) f (0)  10, f (1)  13  8(1)  10  3. Since 3    10, by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there exists a c so that 0  c  1 and f (c)   . (b) f (0)  10, f ( 4)  (4)3  8( 4)  10  22. Since 22   3  10, by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there exists a c so that 4  c  0 and f (c)   3. (c) f (0)  10, f (1000)  (1000)3  8(1000)  10  999,992, 010. Since 10  5, 000, 000  999,992, 010, by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there exists a c so that 0  c  1000 and f (c)  5, 000, 000. 64. All five statements ask for the same information because of the intermediate value property of continuous functions. (a) A root of f ( x)  x3  3 x  1 is a point c where f (c)  0. (b) The point where y  x3 crosses y  3 x  1 have the same y-coordinate, or y  x3  3 x  1  f ( x)  x3  3 x  1  0. (c) x3  3x  1  x3  3 x  1  0. The solutions to the equation are the roots of f ( x )  x3  3 x  1. Copyright  2023 Pearson Education, Inc.

Chapter 2 Limits and Continuity (d) The points where y  x3  3 x crosses y  1 have common y-coordinates, or y  x3  3 x  1  f ( x)  x3  3 x  1  0. (e) The solutions of x3  3x  1  0 are those points where f ( x)  x3  3 x  1 has value 0. sin( x  2)

65. Answers may vary. For example, f ( x)  x  2 is discontinuous at x  2 because it is not defined there. However, the discontinuity can be removed because f has a limit (namely 1) as x  2. 66.

Then 0  |x  x0 |   but | f ( x)  f ( x0 )|  1  12  , so lim f ( x) fails to exist  f is discontinuous at x0 rational. x  x0

On the other hand, x0 irrational  f ( x0 )  0 and there is a rational number x in ( x0   , x0   )  f ( x)  1. Again lim f ( x) fails to exist  f is discontinuous at x0 irrational. That is, f is discontinuous at every point. x  x0

(b) f is neither right-continuous nor left-continuous at any point x0 because in every interval ( x0   , x0 ) or ( x0 , x0   ) there exist both rational and irrational real numbers. Thus neither limits lim f ( x) and x  x0

lim f ( x) exist by the same arguments used in part (a).

x  x0

f ( x)

68. Yes. Both f ( x)  x and g ( x)  x  12 are continuous on [0, 1]. However g ( x ) is undefined at x  12 since



f ( x)

g 12  0  g ( x ) is discontinuous at x  12 .

69. No. For instance, if f ( x)  0, g ( x)   x  , then h( x)  0   x    0 is continuous at x  0 and g ( x) is not. 70. Let f ( x)  x11 and g ( x)  x  1. Both functions are continuous at x  0. The composition f  g  f ( g ( x)) 

1  1 is discontinuous at x  0, since it is not defined there. Theorem 10 requires that f ( x ) be continuous ( x 1) 1 x

at g (0), which is not the case here since g (0)  1 and f is undefined at 1.

71. Yes, because of the Intermediate Value Theorem. If f ( a ) and f (b) did have different signs then f would have to equal zero at some point between a and b since f is continuous on [ a, b]. 72. Let f ( x ) be the new position of point x and let d ( x)  f ( x)  x. The displacement function d is negative if x is the left-hand point of the rubber band and positive if x is the right-hand point of the rubber band. By the Intermediate Value Theorem, d ( x)  0 for some point in between. That is, f ( x)  x for some point x, which is then in its original position. 73. If f (0)  0 or f (1)  1, we are done (i.e., c  0 or c  1 in those cases). Then let f (0)  a  0 and f (1)  b  1 because 0  f ( x)  1. Define g ( x)  f ( x)  x  g is continuous on [0, 1]. Moreover, g (0)  f (0)  0  a  0 and g (1)  f (1)  1  b  1  0  by the Intermediate Value Theorem there is a number c in (0, 1) such that g (c)  0  f (c)  c  0 or f (c)  c. f (c )

74. Let   2  0. Since f is continuous at x  c there is a   0 such that x  c    f ( x)  f (c)    f (c)    f ( x)  f (c)  . If f (c)  0, then   12 f (c)  12 f (c)  f ( x)  23 f (c)  f ( x)  0 on the interval (c   , c   ). Copyright  2023 Pearson Education, Inc.

If f (c)  0, then    12 f (c)  23 f (c)  f ( x)  12 f (c)  f ( x)  0 on the interval (c   , c   ).

75. By Exercise 52 in Section 2.3, we have lim f ( x )  L  lim f (c  h )  L. x c

Thus, f ( x) is continuous at x  c  lim f ( x)  f (c)  lim f (c  h)  f (c). x c

h 0

76. By Exercise 75, it suffices to show that lim sin(c  h)  sin c and lim cos(c  h)  cos c. h 0

h 0

Now lim sin(c  h)  lim  (sin c)(cos h)  (cos c)(sin h)  (sin c)  lim cos h   (cos c)  lim sin h . h 0 h 0  h 0   h 0  By Example 12 Section 2.2, lim cos h  1 and lim sin h  0. So lim sin(c  h)  sin c and thus f ( x)  sin x is h 0

We want to know in what interval to hold values of h to make V satisfy the inequality |V  1000|  |36 h  1000|  10. To find out, we solve the inequality: 990  h  1010  8.8  h  8.9 |36 h  1000|  10  10  36 h  1000  10  990  36 h  1010  36  36 where 8.8 was rounded up, to be safe, and 8.9 was rounded down, to be safe. The interval in which we should hold h is about 8.9  8.8  0.1 cm wide (1 mm). With stripes 1 mm wide, we can expect to measure a liter of water with an accuracy of 1%, which is more than enough accuracy for cooking. Copyright  2023 Pearson Education, Inc.

Chapter 2 Limits and Continuity

17. (a) Let   0 be given. If x is rational, then f ( x)  x  | f ( x)  0|  | x  0|   | x  0|  ; i.e., choose   . Then | x  0|    | f ( x)  0|   for x rational. If x is irrational, then f ( x)  0  | f ( x)  0|    0   which is true no matter how close irrational x is to 0, so again we can choose   . In either case, given   0 there is a     0 such that 0  | x  0|    | f ( x)  0|  . Therefore, f is continuous at x  0. (b) Choose x  c  0. Then within any interval (c   , c   ) there are both rational and irrational numbers. If c is rational, pick   2c . No matter how small we choose   0 there is an irrational number x in (c   , c   )  | f ( x)  f (c)|  |0  c |  c  2c  . That is, f is not continuous at any rational c  0. On the other hand, suppose c is irrational  f (c)  0. Again pick   2c . No matter how small we choose   0 there is a rational number x in (c   , c   ) with | x  c |  2c    2c  x  32c . Then | f ( x)  f (c)|  | x  0|  | x |  2c    f is not continuous at any irrational c  0. |c|

If x  c  0, repeat the argument picking   2  2c . Therefore f fails to be continuous at any nonzero value x  c. 18. (a) Let c  mn be a rational number in [0, 1] reduced to lowest terms  f (c)  1n . Pick   21n . No matter how small   0 is taken, there is an irrational number x in the interval (c   , c   )  | f ( x)  f (c)|  0  1n  1n  21n  . Therefore f is discontinuous at x  c, a rational number.

(b) Now suppose c is an irrational number  f (c)  0. Let   0 be given. Notice that 12 is the only rational number reduced to lowest terms with denominator 2 and belonging to [0, 1]; 13 and 23 the only rationals with denominator 3 belonging to [0, 1]; 14 and 34 with denominator 4 in [0, 1]; 15 , 52 , 53 and 54 with denominator 5 in [0, 1]; etc. In general, choose N so that N1    there exist only finitely many rationals in [0, 1] having

denominator  N , say r1 , r2 , , rp . Let   min {| c  ri |: i  1,  , p}. Then the interval (c   , c   ) contains no rational numbers with denominator  N . Thus, 0  | x  c |    | f ( x)  f (c)|  | f ( x )  0|  | f ( x)|  N1    f is continuous at x  c irrational. (c) The graph looks like the markings on a typical ruler when the points ( x, f ( x)) on the graph of f ( x ) are connected to the x-axis with vertical lines.

19. Yes. Let R be the radius of the equator (earth) and suppose at a fixed instant of time we label noon as the zero point, 0, on the equator  0   R represents the midnight point (at the same exact time). Suppose x1 is a point on the equator “just after” noon  x1   R is simultaneously “just after” midnight. It seems reasonable that the temperature T at a point just after noon is hotter than it would be at the diametrically opposite point just after midnight: That is, T ( x1 )  T ( x1   R)  0. At exactly the same moment in time pick x2 to be a point just before midnight  x2   R is just before noon. Then T ( x2 )  T ( x2   R )  0. Assuming the temperature function T is continuous along the equator (which is reasonable), the Intermediate Value Theorem says there is a point c Copyright  2023 Pearson Education, Inc.

27. Note that as x increases, the slope of the tangent line to the curve is first negative, then zero (when x  0), then positive  the slope is always increasing which matches (b). 28. Note that the slope of the tangent line is never negative. For x negative, f 2 ( x) is positive but decreasing as x increases. When x  0, the slope of the tangent line to x is 0. For x  0, f 2 ( x) is positive and increasing. This graph matches (a). 29. f3 ( x) is an oscillating function like the cosine. Everywhere that the graph of f3 has a horizontal tangent line we expect f3 to be zero, and (d) matches this condition. 30. The graph matches with (c).
