I. State whether the given function is one to one or not.

1. one to one, linear function with non-zero slope is one to one.
2. not one to one, line with slope equal to zero is not one to one
3. one to one, review graph of rational function
4. not one to one. quadratic function is not one to one
5. one to one by graphing
6. one to one, linear function with non-zero slope is one to one.
7. one to one, review graph of rational function
8. not a function so not a one to one function
9. one to one, by graphing
10. one to one, if x is even y is odd and if x is odd y is even and check the vertices of the
piecewise functions
11. one to one, just a translation of y = x3
12. one to one, y is integer if x is even while y is not an integer if x is odd prime number.
13. one to one
14. one to one
15. not one to one,
16. a period is a one to one function
17. one to one
18. not one to one
19. not one to one
