Exercise 1.4.9 (9-14)

Make a rough sketch by hand of the graph of the function. Use the graphs given in Figures 3 and 15 and, if necessary, the transformations of Section 1.3.

9.
g ( x ) = 3 x + 1
10.
h ( x ) = 2 ( 1 2 ) x 3
11.
y = e x
12.
y = 4 x + 2
13.
y = 1 1 2 e x
14.
y = e | x |

We first draw the graph of y = 3 x and then shift it up by one unit and obtain the desired graph:
10.
We first draw the graph of y = ( 1 2 ) x , then stretch it vertically by a factor of 2, shift it downwards by 3 units, and obtain the desired graph:
11.
To obtain the desired graph, we should reflect the graph of y = e x about the y -axis, and after that, about the x -axis:
12.
To obtain the desired graph, we should shift the graph of y = 4 x by 2 units to the left:
13.
We sketch the graph of y as follows:
14.
The graph of y = e | x | is obtained by reflecting the portion of the graph of y = e x that lies to the left of y -axis onto the right of the y -axis while keeping the portion of the graph that is in the positive x region unchanged:
