(b) From the graph, we estimate that the BAC is 008 gdL when

From the graph, we see that there is a horizontal asymptote = 0 as → −∞
and a horizontal asymptote = 1 as → ∞. If = 1, the yintercept is

.
As gets smaller (close to 0), the graph of moves left. As gets larger, the graph
of moves right.
As changes from −1 to 0, the graph of is stretched horizontally. As
changes through large negative values, the graph of is compressed horizontally.
(This takes care of negatives values of .)
If is positive, the graph of is reflected through the yaxis.
Last, if = 0, the graph of is the horizontal line = 1(1 + ).
35. We graph the function () =
2 (
+ − ) for = 1, 2, and 5. Because
(0) = , the yintercept is , so the yintercept moves upward as increases.
Notice that the graph also widens, becoming flatter near the yaxis as increases.

(b) It must pass the Horizontal Line Test.
2. (a) −1 () = ⇔ () = for any in . The domain of −1 is and the range of −1 is .
(b) See the steps in Box 5.
(c) Reflect the graph of about the line = .
3. is not onetoone because 2 6= 6, but (2) = 20 = (6).
4. is onetoone because it never takes on the same value twice.
5. We could draw a horizontal line that intersects the graph in more than one point. Thus, by the Horizontal Line Test, the
function is not onetoone.
6. No horizontal line intersects the graph more than once. Thus, by the Horizontal Line Test, the function is onetoone.

CHAPTER 1 FUNCTIONSAND MODELS
7. No horizontal line intersects the graph more than once. Thus, by the Horizontal Line Test, the function is onetoone.
8. We could draw a horizontal line that intersects the graph in more than one point. Thus, by the Horizontal Line Test, the
function is not onetoone.
9. The graph of () = 2 − 3 is a line with slope 2. It passes the Horizontal Line Test, so is onetoone.
Algebraic solution: If 1 6= 2 , then 2 1 6= 2 2 ⇒ 2 1 − 3 6= 2 2 − 3 ⇒ ( 1 ) 6= ( 2 ), so is onetoone.
10. The graph of () = 4 − 16 is symmetric with respect to the axis. Pick any values equidistant from 0 to find two equal
function values. For example, (−1) = −15 and (1) = −15, so is not onetoone.
11. No horizontal line intersects the graph of () = 3 + 4 more than once. Thus, by the Horizontal Line Test, the function is
onetoone.
Algebraic solution: If 1 6= 2 , then 3
1 6=

⇒ 3
1 + 4 6=

2 + 4
⇒ ( 1 ) 6= ( 2 ), so is onetoone.
12. The graph of () =

√ passes the Horizontal Line Test, so is onetoone.
13. () = 1 − sin. (0) = 1 and () = 1, so is not onetoone.
14. The graph of () = 4 − 1 passes the Horizontal Line Test when is restricted to the interval [0,10], so is onetoone.
