Preparation for Calculus
Section P.1 Graphs and Models
1. To find the x-intercepts of the graph of an equation, 8. y = 5 − 2 x
let y be zero and solve the equation for x. To find the
y-intercepts of the graph of an equation, let x be zero x 0 1 2 3 4
and solve the equation for y.

2. Substitute the x- and y-values of the ordered pair into
y
both equations. If the ordered pair satisfies both
equations, then the ordered pair is a point of intersection. (− 1, 7)

74. (a) Intercepts for y = x3 − x :

(0, 0), (1, 0) (−1, 0)
Intercepts for y = x 2 + 2:
y -intercept: y = 0 + 2 = 2 ; (0, 2)
x-intercepts: 0 = x 2 + 2
None. y cannot equal 0.

(b) Symmetry with respect to the origin for y = x3 − x because


− y = ( − x) − ( − x) = − x3 + x.

Symmetry with respect to the y-axis for y = x 2 + 2 because


y = ( − x) + 2 = x 2 + 2.

4. m = 0
2. No. Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative
reciprocals of each other. So, one line has a positive 5. m = −1

Using a graphing utility, the point of intersection is (15,000, 3050).


Analytically, W1 = W2
0.07 s + 2000 = 0.05s + 2300

So, W1 = W2 = 0.07(15,000) + 2000 = 3050.
