| You try it. |
| 1. Graph the following equation. Adjust the x and y values to create an appropriate viewing window. |
|
| y1:=x^4-58*x^3+6*x^2-7*x+1; plot([y1],x=-10..10,thickness=2); |
 |
 |
| 2. Change the above graph so that the axes are in a large font. Also create a title for the graph. |
| plot([y1],x=-10..10,thickness=2,color=[green],labels=["x-axis","y-axis"],labelfont=[TIMES,BOLD,16],title="Mike's Graph 1 =)",titlefont=[TIMES,BOLD,18]); |
 |
| 3. Create a single graph containing the graphs of the following functions on the interval -2*Pi < x < 2*Pi using three different colors and line thicknesses. |
| y = sin(2x), y = 2sin(2x), and y = 3sin(2x). |
| y2:=sin(2*x); y3:=2*sin(2*x); y4:=3*sin(2*x); plot([y2,y3,y4],x=-2*Pi..2*Pi,color=[red,blue,green],thickness=[3,2,1],labels=["x-axis","y-axis"],labelfont=[TIMES,BOLD,16],title="Mike's Graph 2",titlefont=[COURIER,BOLD,20]); |

 |
 |
| 4. Create a single graph containing the graphs of the following functions using three different symbols. The graphs should consist of points, not a smooth curve. |
| y = ln(x), y = ln(2x), and y = ln(3x). |
| y5:=ln(x); y6:=ln(2*x); y7:=ln(3*x); plot([y5,y6,y7],x=0..5,style=point,color=[green,coral,maroon],symbol=[box,cross,diamond],title="Mike's Graph 3",titlefont=[TIMES,BOLD,18]); |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| 5. Graph the following discontinuos function. Be sure the graph is discontinuous. |
 |
| y8:=piecewise(x<2,-5,x>=2,x^2); plot(y8,x=-3..5,discont=true,thickness=3,color=green,title="Mike's Graph 4",titlefont=[TIMES,BOLD,18]); |
