Finding 𝐗 and 𝐲 intercepts :


1- To find 𝒙-intercept make 𝒚 = 𝟎 find 𝒙 and 𝒙 ∈ domain ⇒ (𝒙, 𝟎)
And it is possible for the graph to have no 𝒙-intercept, or it might have one or several 𝒙 -
intercept
2- To find 𝒚-intercept make 𝒙 = 𝟎 ⇒ (𝟎, 𝒚)
It is possible at most one 𝒚-intercepts .

EXAMPLE Testing for symmetry with respect to the origin.


Show that the graph of the function 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟐𝒙𝟑 − 𝒙 is symmetric with respect to the
origin.
Solution :

𝒇(−𝒙) = 𝟐(−𝒙)𝟑 − (−𝒙) = −𝟐𝒙𝟑 + 𝒙 = −(𝟐𝒙𝟑 − 𝒙) = −𝒇(𝒙)

then 𝒇(𝒙) is odd (symmetric with respect to the origin)𝒇(−𝒙) = −𝒇(𝒙)


Second way :
because all powers are odd then 𝒇(𝒙) is symmetric with respect to the origin

check it out . Show that the graph of the function

𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟐𝒙𝟒 − 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟐 is symmetric with respect to the 𝒚-axis.


Solution: 𝒇(−𝒙) = 𝟐(−𝒙)𝟒 − (−𝒙)𝟐 + 𝟐 = 𝟐𝒙𝟒 − 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟐 = 𝒇(𝒙)
is even (symmetric with respect to the 𝒚-axis)𝒇(−𝒙) = 𝒇(𝒙)

Second way
because all powers are even then 𝒇(𝒙) is symmetric with respect to the 𝒚-axis.

Note : To sketch the graph it is enough to draw the portion corresponding to the positive
value of 𝒙. Then reflect this portion about the 𝒚-axis if the function is even .
Or reflect this portion about the origin if the function is odd.

in exercises 15 to 20 , determine whether the function is symmetric with respect to the 𝒚-axis or
with respect to the origin.

23 Break-Even Point Economists say that the profit of an enterprise reaches the Break-Even point
when the cost of production and the revenue are equal. Find the break-even point of an
enterprise knowing that the total cost function of producing 𝒙 units is 𝑪 = 𝟓√𝒙 and the revenue
𝑹 essential for selling 𝒙 units is 𝑹 = 𝟑𝒙
Solution: 𝑹 = 𝑪

𝟑𝒙 = 𝟓√𝒙 by squaring
(𝟑𝒙)𝟐 = (𝟓√𝒙)𝟐 ⟹ 𝟗𝒙𝟐 = 𝟐𝟓𝒙
𝟗𝒙𝟐 − 𝟐𝟓𝒙 = 𝟎 ⟹ 𝒙(𝟗𝒙 − 𝟐𝟓) = 𝟎

3)Given the two functions 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝒙𝟑 + 𝟑𝒙 and 𝒈(𝒙) = 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑.


a. Show that 𝒇 is odd and 𝒈 is even.
b. Find the points of intersection of the graphs of 𝒇 and 𝒈.
Solution :
a) 𝒇(−𝒙) = (−𝒙)𝟑 + 𝟑𝒙 − 𝒙 = −𝒙𝟑 − 𝟑𝒙 = −(𝒙𝟑 + 𝒙) = −𝒇(𝒙)
𝒇(−𝒙) = −𝒇(𝒙) is odd
𝒈(−𝒙) = (−𝒙)𝟐 + 𝟑 = 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑 = 𝒈(𝒙)
𝒈(−𝒙) = 𝒈(𝒙) is even
Second way :
𝒇(𝒙) : because all powers of 𝒙 are odd then 𝒇 is an odd function
𝒈(𝒙): because all powers of 𝒙 are even then 𝒈 is an even function

22
b)

𝟐
𝒙 (𝒙 − 𝟏) + 𝟑(𝒙 − 𝟏) = 𝟎
(𝒙 − 𝟏)[𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑] = 𝟎 ⇒ 𝒙 = 𝟏, 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑 ≠ 𝟎
𝒚 = 𝒈(𝟏) = (𝟏)𝟐 + 𝟑 = 𝟏 + 𝟑 = 𝟒 ⇒ (𝟏, 𝟒)

2) What are the 𝒙-coordinates of the point of intersection of the two graphs of the functions
𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟑𝒙 + 𝟏 and 𝒈(𝒙) = 𝒙𝟐 − 𝟑 ?
a. 𝒙 = 𝟎
b. 𝒙 = 𝟏, 𝒙 = 𝟒
c . 𝒙 = −𝟏, 𝒙 = −𝟒
d. 𝒙 = −𝟏, 𝒙 = 𝟒
Solution : 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝒈(𝒙)

𝟑𝒙 + 𝟏 = 𝒙𝟐 − 𝟑 ⇒ 𝒙𝟐 − 𝟑𝒙 − 𝟑 − 𝟏 = 𝟎 ⇒ 𝒙𝟐 − 𝟑𝒙 − 𝟒 = 𝟎 testing
(𝒙 − 𝟒)(𝒙 + 𝟏) = 𝟎 ⇒ 𝒙 − 𝟒 = 𝟎 or 𝒙 + 𝟏 = 𝟎 ⇒ 𝒙 = 𝟒 or 𝒙 = −𝟏

Second way: (𝒅) 𝒙 = −𝟏, 𝒙 = 𝟒


substitute the values of 𝒙 in 𝒈(𝒙) and 𝒇(𝒙), must be get the same result

𝒙 = −𝟏: in 𝒈(𝒙) = (−𝟏)𝟐 − 𝟑 = 𝟏 − 𝟑 = −𝟐


in 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟑(−𝟏) + 𝟏 = −𝟑 + 𝟏 = −𝟐

𝒙 = 𝟒: in 𝒈(𝒙) = (𝟒)𝟐 − 𝟑 = 𝟏𝟔 − 𝟑 = 𝟏𝟑
in 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟑(𝟒) + 𝟏 = 𝟏𝟐 + 𝟏 = 𝟏𝟑
