PROBLEM SETS 1 & 2. DUE THURSDAY 7 SEPTEMBER Problem Set 1. Problems from Lecture 1. 1.

Given a quadratic equation of the from ax2 + bx + c = 0, we can solve for x using the formula b b2 4ac . x= 2a Using the above formula, solve the equation 4x2 5x 6 = 0 for x. In the above equation, a = 4, b = 5, and c = 6. Therefore, the solutions are given by (5)2 4 4 (6) 24 5 (25 (96)) = 8 5 121 = 8 5 11 = 8 3 = { , 2} 4 These answers can be checked by resubstitution into the original quadratic. x = 2. Find f (x) if f (x + 1) = x2 5x + 3. We can nd f (x) by substituting x 1 for x in the formula for f (x + 1): f (x) = f ((x 1) + 1) = (x 1)2 5(x 1) + 3 = x2 7x + 9 3. Graph the following functions, and give their domain and range. (a) y = 3x 2. Domain: (, ). Range: (, ) (b) y = 4x2 + 3. Domain: (, ). Range: [3, )

Simplify the following expressions (i.e. write them in terms of elementary trig functions sin(), sin(), etc.). (a) sin( + ). sin( + ) = sin() cos() + cos() sin(). This is a basic trigonometric identity. (b) cos(3). Using a formula similar to that used in (a), above, we write: cos(3) = cos( + 2) = cos() cos(2) sin() sin(2) Using the standard formulas for cos(2) and sin(2), this can be further simplied to: cos(3) = cos()(1 2 sin2 ()) sin() 2 sin() cos() = cos() 2 sin2 () cos() 2 sin2 () cos() = cos()(1 4 sin2 ())
