Is this correct?
Yes choice C is correct. Nice job.
Thank you!
you're welcome
@jim_thompson5910 Is this one also correct?
I agree that they both have asymptotes, but I don't agree that they're both exponential functions
one is a log, the other is an exponential
one has a vertical asymptote, the other has a horizontal asymptote
Are they both logarithmic functions? I can never tell the difference
they both have been shifted and flipped (if you compare them to the parent function)
the blue one is logarithmic because it has a vertical asymptote the red one is exponential. It has a horizontal asymptote
logs and exponents are inverses of each other. Recall that x and y swap places when you deal with inverses because of this swap, the horizontal asymptote will become vertical and vice versa
Oh so the answer would be A and D?
yes that is correct
Thank you! Also is this one correct?
look at the graph of f(x). You'll notice that it doesn't have a max. It is slowly approaching a horizontal asymptote (in this case, y = 2) and it never actually gets there.
So then g(x) = has the largest possible y-value?
So it would be B and D?
D is definitely true. B seems a bit odd to me. Let me think B over some more
Ok thank you!
f(x) has no max, but f(x) does approach 2 when x heads off to negative infinity hmm not sure about B. It seems like a trick question
Yea it does but it is multiple response.
It was B and D
I guess what B is trying to say is that f(x) --> 2 while x --> -infinity which is a true statement.
Is this correct
@jim_thompson5910
There's definitely one x intercept since y change from negative to positive. It's not clear if there's exactly 1 or more than 1
If this function is one-to-one, then there's exactly one x intercept. If not, then it could have more than one root
So there isn't enough information
If you were told "this function is logarithmic" or "this function is exponential", then that would be enough info to know that it is one-to-one.
Ok thank you! Is this one correct?
@jim_thompson5910
yes both are correct
