Appc Unit 1a Review

1. The dependent variable is s (number of people swimming) and the independent variable is t (temperature). 2. The function f is increasing on the interval 9 ≤ x ≤ 17 because it is strictly increasing over that interval. 3. The function has intervals of: being concave up from h to i; concave down from j to k; increasing from g to i and decreasing from h to l; zeros at b and l; and a y-intercept of f(0).
