Investigate the behavior of the function as n or x grows large by making a table of function values and plotting a graph (see Example 4). Describe the behavior in words.

ƒ(x) = (x tan 1/x)^x2

OF FIGURE 13 horizontally by a factor of 2 EXAMPLE 4 Sketch the graph of f(x) = 3 cos (2(x+)) over [0, 27]. Solution The graph is obtained by scaling and shifting the graph of y = cos x in three steps (Figure 13): -1 . . Compress horizontally by a factor of 2: Shift to the left 7/2 units: Expand vertically by a factor of 3: Shift left 7/2 units y = 3 cos (2(x + 1)) y = cos x y = cos 2x y = cos (2(x + 5) HE HAS WE MA 2π Compress Expand 1. y = cos 2x -1 y = cos s(2(x + 7/-)) y = 3 cos (2 ( ² (x + 7/ )) vertically by →>> a factor of 3 -3-
