Hint 0.4

This is a rather complicated graph, so it's a good example for later reference. Note that
  • multiple curves are enclosed in curly brackets
  • colors for multiple curves are enclosed in square brackets
  • you must limit the y value in the graph by adding -3..3. Note that you don't write y=-3..3 as y is not defined
  • The plot function draws a line from + infinity to - infinity unless you tell MAPLE the function has discontinuities by including discont=true
  • it doesn't matter what order you include parameters such as discont and color

    • a:=3;
    k:=10;
    plot({a*x,tan(k*x)},x=0..1,-3..3,discont=true,color=[red,green]);

    Use the scale and translate tools to zero in on the point of intersection.
