CHAPTER 1
Preparation for Calculus
Section 1.1 Graphs and Models
1. To find the x-intercepts of the graph of an equation,
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
and solve the equation for y.
2. Symmetry helps in sketching a graph because you need
only half as many points to plot. Answers will vary.
3. 3
2 y x =− + 3
x-intercept: ( ) 2, 0
y-intercept: ( ) 0, 3
Matches graph (b).
4. 2 y x = − 9
x-intercepts: ( )( ) −3, 0 , 3, 0
y-intercept: ( ) 0, 3
Matches graph (d).
5. 2 y x = − 3
x-intercepts: ( ) 3, 0 , 3, 0 ( ) −
y-intercept: ( ) 0, 3
Matches graph (a).
6. 3 yx x = −
x-intercepts: ( )( )( ) 0, 0 , 1, 0 , 1, 0 −
y-intercept: ( ) 0, 0
Matches graph (c).
