(b) The graph of max{2} = 1 is shown in part (a), and the graph of
max{2} = −1 can be found in a similar manner. The
inequalities in −1 ≤ max{2} ≤ 1 give us all the points on or
inside the boundaries.

12. We note that −1 ≤ sin ≤ 1 for all . Thus, any solution of sin = 100 will have −1 ≤ 100 ≤ 1, or
−100 ≤ ≤ 100. We next observe that the period of sin is 2, and sin takes on each value in its range, except for −1
and 1, twice each cycle. We observe that = 0 is a solution. Finally, we note that because sin and 100 are both odd
functions, every solution on 0 ≤ ≤ 100 gives us a corresponding solution on −100 ≤ ≤ 0.
1002 ≈ 159, so there 15 full cycles of sin on [0100]Each of the 15 intervals [02], [24], , [2830] must
contain two solutions of sin = 100, as the graph of sin will intersect the graph of 100 twice each cycle. We must
be careful with the next (16th) interval [3032], because 100 is contained in the interval. A graph of 1 = sin and
2 = 100 over this interval reveals that two intersections occur within the interval with ≤ 100
Thus, there are 16 · 2 = 32 solutions of sin = 100 on [0100]. There are also 32 solutions of the equation on
[−1000]. Being careful to not count the solution = 0 twice, we find that there are 32 + 32 − 1 = 63 solutions of the
equation sin = 100.
