  1. What exactly is #12 on the turn-in asking us to find? I found f(1) and f'(1), but I'm not sure what I'm looking for...

    1. I do not have my copy in front of me, but I believe that question is asking for the slope of the inverse to f at f(1).

    2. Yes, number 12 is asking for the equation of the tangent line of the inverse of f at the given point.

  2. For number 8 on the turn in which graph do you want us to graph it on?

    Thanks,

  3. For number 9 on the turn in, do we have to use algebra to prove it, or can we use the graph?

    Thank you,

    1. #9 is looking to use a particular theorem. To do so you'll have to show the function satisfies a couple of conditions, which can be done with a single sentence by utilizing the type of function it is.

  4. Was there any book work assigned with this turn-in?
    Thanks,
