The following questions are to be answered with full solutions. Be sure to focus on proper mathematical form, including:

• One equal sign per line
• Equal signs in each question lined up vertically with each other
• No self-developed short form notation
• One step or idea per line(do not do steps in your head that are not written down; each line must represent a step-by-step progression from question to answer)

Please include neat, complete solutions showing all the steps you used to get your final answer. Be sure your graphs are well labeled, and your curves each easily distinguished with colour coding if you have more than one curve on a grid.
