1. Attributes of functions and their inverses. Graph the functions f(x) = √x, f(x) = 1/x, f(x) = x3 ,
f(x) = 3√x, f(x) = bx, f(x) = |x|, and f(x) = logb (x) where b is 2, 10, and e, and, when applicable,
analyze the key attributes such as domain, range, intercepts, symmetries, asymptotic behavior,
and maximum and minimum given an interval.
