Hello, Can someone please explain on how to do this? thank you!

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.

Ann is adding water to a swimming pool at a constant rate. The table below shows the amount of water in the pool after different

N76 [4]

Answer:

(a) As time increases, the amount of water in the pool increases.

11 gallons per minute

(b) 65 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

From inspection of the table, we can see that <u>as time increases, the amount of water in the pool increases</u>.

We are told that Ann adds water at a constant rate. Therefore, this can be modeled as a linear function.

The rate at which the water is increasing is the <em>rate of change</em> (which is also the <em>slope </em>of a linear function).

Choose 2 ordered pairs from the table:

$\textsf{let}\:(x_1,y_1)=(8, 153)$

$\textsf{let}\:(x_2,y_2)=(12,197)$

Input these into the slope formula:

$\textsf{slope}\:(m)=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{197-153}{12-8}=\dfrac{44}{4}=11$

Therefore, the rate at which the water in the pool is increasing is:

<u>11 gallons per minute</u>

To find the amount of water that was already in the pool when Ann started adding water, we need to create a linear equation using the found slope and one of the ordered pairs with the point-slope formula:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$\implies y-153=11(x-8)$

$\implies y-153=11x-88$

$\implies y=11x-88+153$

$\implies y=11x+65$

When Ann had added no water, x = 0. Therefore,

$y=11(0)+65$

$y=65$

So there was <u>65 gallons</u> of water in the pool before Ann starting adding water.
