1. Stating the problem: We analyze the differentiability and continuity of the functions graphed in Exercises 43-48 over their given domains.
2. Important concepts:
- A function is differentiable at a point if it has a defined tangent (smooth slope) there.
- A function is continuous at a point if there is no break, jump, or hole.
- Points where the function is continuous but not differentiable include sharp corners or cusps.
- Points where the function is neither continuous nor differentiable include jumps or holes.
3. Exercise 43: Linear function from (-3,2) to (2,-2)
- Linear functions are differentiable and continuous everywhere on their domain.
- So, differentiable on [-3,2], continuous on [-3,2], no exceptions.
4. Exercise 44: Wavy curve from (-2,0) to (3,1)
- Smooth curve with no sharp corners or breaks.
- Differentiable and continuous on entire domain [-2,3].
5. Exercise 45: Two parts with open circles at (-1,1.5), (0,0), and (3,0)
- Open circles indicate points not included, so discontinuities at x=-1,0,3.
- At these points, function is neither continuous nor differentiable.
- Elsewhere, smooth curves imply differentiability.
6. Exercise 46: Sharp V-shaped point near (-1,0), open circle at (1,3)
- Sharp V at x=-1 means continuous but not differentiable there.
- Open circle at x=1 means discontinuity, so neither continuous nor differentiable at x=1.
- Elsewhere differentiable.
7. Exercise 47: Smooth curve from (-1,1.25) to (2,1.5)
- No sharp corners or breaks.
- Differentiable and continuous on [-1,2].
8. Exercise 48: Two sharp peaks at about (-2,4) and (2,3), valley near (0,0)
- Sharp peaks mean continuous but not differentiable at x=-2 and x=2.
- Valley is smooth, so differentiable there.
- Continuous everywhere on [-3,3].
Final answers:
- Differentiable points:
43: all [-3,2]
44: all [-2,3]
45: all except x=-1,0,3
46: all except x=-1 (sharp corner), x=1 (open circle)
47: all [-1,2]
48: all except x=-2,2 (sharp peaks)
- Continuous but not differentiable:
46: x=-1
48: x=-2,2
- Neither continuous nor differentiable:
45: x=-1,0,3
46: x=1
