Answers:</h3>
- A. T <-> U is a <u>biconditional</u>
- B. (A & B) v (C & D) is a <u>disjunction</u>
- C. R -> ~S is a <u>conditional</u>
- D. P & Q is a <u>conjunction</u>
- E. ~(R v P) is a <u>negation</u>
========================================
Explanations:
- A biconditional is anything in the form A <-> B. This is a compact way of saying (A -> B) & (B -> A). We replace A and B with logical statements.
- Disjunctions are of the basic form A v B. The "v" basically means "or".
- Any conditional is of the form "if... then...". For example, "if it rains, then it gets wet outside" is a conditional. In terms of logic symbols, we write A -> B to mean "if A, then B".
- Conjunctions are whenever we combine two logical statements with an "and" or an ampersand symbol. The basic form is A & B
- Negations are the complete opposite of the original. If the original is P, then the negation is ~P, which is read as "not P".
Steps:
1) determine the domain
2) determine the extreme limits of the function
3) determine critical points (where the derivative is zero)
4) determine the intercepts with the axis
5) do a table
6) put the data on a system of coordinates
7) graph: join the points with the best smooth curve
Solution:
1) domain
The logarithmic function is defined for positive real numbers, then you need to state x - 3 > 0
=> x > 3 <-------- domain
2) extreme limits of the function
Limit log (x - 3) when x → ∞ = ∞
Limit log (x - 3) when x → 3+ = - ∞ => the line x = 3 is a vertical asymptote
3) critical points
dy / dx = 0 => 1 / x - 3 which is never true, so there are not critical points (not relative maxima or minima)
4) determine the intercepts with the axis
x-intercept: y = 0 => log (x - 3) = 0 => x - 3 = 1 => x = 4
y-intercept: The function never intercepts the y-axis because x cannot not be 0.
5) do a table
x y = log (x - 3)
limit x → 3+ - ∞
3.000000001 log (3.000000001 -3) = -9
3.0001 log (3.0001 - 3) = - 4
3.1 log (3.1 - 3) = - 1
4 log (4 - 3) = 0
13 log (13 - 3) = 1
103 log (103 - 3) = 10
lim x → ∞ ∞
Now, with all that information you can graph the function: put the data on the coordinate system and join the points with a smooth curve.

2. multilpy by 2 (-8)
Answer:
<h2>C. g(x) = x - 6</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
For a parent function y = f(x) and n > 0:
f(x) + n : move the graph n units up
f(x) - n : move the graph n units down
f(x + n) : move the graph n units to the left
f(x - n) : move the graph n units to the right
===================================================
We have
f(x) = x
Transformation: 6 units down
f(x) - 6 = x - 6
