Piecewise linear functions The parking costs in a city garage are $2.00 for the first half hour and $1.00 for each additional half hour. Graph the function C = f(t) that gives the cost of parking for t hours, where \(0 \leq t \leq 3\).

Question
Explain why or why not Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or counterexample.
a. A function could have the property that f(x) = f(-x) for all x.
b. cos (a + b) = cos a + cos b for all a and b in \([0,\ 2\pi]\).
c. If f is a linear function of the form f(x) = mx + b, then f(u + v) = f(u) + f(v) for all u and v.
d. The function f(x) = 1 - x has the property that f(f(x)) = x.
e. The set {x: |x + 3| > 4} can be drawn on the number line without lifting your pencil.
f. \(\log _{10}(x y)=\left(\log _{10} x\right)\left(\log _{10} y\right)\)
g. \(\sin ^{-1}(\sin (2 \pi))=0\)
Solution
