(Maximum Mark: 7) : X GFX X X

1) The document contains 4 multi-part math problems involving functions, graphs, intercepts, asymptotes, and transformations. 2) For problem 1, the student is asked to find values of a factorial function f(x) = x! at various x values, find where f is undefined, and evaluate a related function g(x). 3) For problem 2, the student must write a quadratic function in standard form and find the function for a translated graph. 4) Problems 3 and 4 involve more advanced graphing, intercepts, and asymptotes questions for various functions.
