I would use a small, easy slope.
The graph looks like this, on the enclosed pic:
One feature is that it's periodic and torn (has cut-off points), meaning the domain is the same as in case of tan(x): x€R and x =/= π/2+πn.
The range equals the range of arcsin(x): -π/2<=y<=π/2 OR y€[-π/2;π/2]
Hope could understand and if it helped! :)
12. On addition, you can just combine like terms.
2v^3+(-v^3)=v^3
-v+v cancels each other out
8+(-3)=5
So you have v^3+5
14 On subtraction, you have to remember to distribute the negative sign so after you do that you have:
4h^3+3h+1+5h^3-6h+2
Then you can combine like terms
4h^3+5h^3=9h^3
3h-6h=-3h
1+2=3
So you end up with:
9h^3-3h+3
Hope that helps and feel free to ask any questions.
