The points of intersection with the X-axis coordinate
Graph of the function intersects the axis X at f = 0 so we need to solve the equation: 2log(3x−1)=0 Solve this equation The points of intersection with the axis X:
The points of intersection with the Y axis coordinate
The graph crosses Y axis when x equals 0: substitute x = 0 to log(3*x - 1)*sqrt(2). 2log(−1+0⋅3) The result: f(0)=2iπ The point:
(0, pi*i*sqrt(2))
Extrema of the function
In order to find the extrema, we need to solve the equation dxdf(x)=0 (the derivative equals zero), and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function: dxdf(x)= the first derivative 3x−132=0 Solve this equation Solutions are not found, function may have no extrema
Inflection points
Let's find the inflection points, we'll need to solve the equation for this dx2d2f(x)=0 (the second derivative equals zero), the roots of this equation will be the inflection points for the specified function graph: dx2d2f(x)= the second derivative −(3x−1)292=0 Solve this equation Solutions are not found, maybe, the function has no inflections
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo x→−∞lim(2log(3x−1))=∞ Let's take the limit so, horizontal asymptote on the left doesn’t exist x→∞lim(2log(3x−1))=∞ Let's take the limit so, horizontal asymptote on the right doesn’t exist
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of log(3*x - 1)*sqrt(2), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo x→−∞lim(x2log(3x−1))=0 Let's take the limit so, inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the right x→∞lim(x2log(3x−1))=0 Let's take the limit so, inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the left
Even and odd functions
Let's check, whether the function even or odd by using relations f = f(-x) и f = -f(-x). So, check: 2log(3x−1)=2log(−3x−1) - No 2log(3x−1)=−2log(−3x−1) - No so, the function not is neither even, nor odd
