2. Let f be a function such that

I. f is continuous at x = 4. II. f is differentiable at x = 4. III. The derivative of

′ f is continuous at x = 4.

A. I only B. II only C. I and II only D. I and III only E. I, II and III

C. Students should recognize that the statement tells them that the derivative of f exists at x = 4 and thus it must be true that f is continuous at x = 4 as well. The question is, what about ′ ′ f ? It is easy to construct a piecewise function for ′ f whose left and right limits are 2 at x = 4.

′ f x( ) =2x − 6,x ≤ 42,x > 4⎧ ⎨ ⎩

and thus ′ ′ f x( ) =2,x ≤ 40,x > 4⎧ ⎨ ⎩

so ′ ′ f is not continuous at x = 4.

Tangent line vertical when dydx

A. 0.168 B. 0.238 C. 0.451 D. 0.584 E. 1.450

B. a t( ) = 1− 2.5cos2t ln2.5( ) −sin2t( ) 2( ) ⇒ a t( ) = 1− 2.5cos4 ln2.5( ) −sin4( ) 2( ) = 0.238

′ f x( ) is shown to the right, which of the following could be the graph of

y = f x( )?

I. II. III. A. I only B. II only C. III only D. I and III only E. II and III only

A. Since ′ f x( ) > 0,x ≠ 0, f x( ) is increasing. But since ′ f 0( ) = 0

f x( ) has a horizontal tangent at x = 0. For III, ′ f 0( ) does not exist.

41. The rate at which the gasoline is changing in the tank of a hybrid car is modeled by

f t( ) = t + .5sin t − 2.5 gallons per hour, t hours after a 6-hour trip starts. At what time during the 6-hour trip was the gasoline in the tank going down most rapidly?

A. 0 B. 2.292 C. 3.228 D. 4.203 E. 6

A. ′ f t( ) = 12 t

+ .5cos t = 0. ⇒ t = 2.292 or t = 4.203.

Since the change is negative, we want the value of t when f t( ) is a minimum.

f 0( ) = −2.5 f 2.292( ) = −0.611 f 4.203( ) = −0.886 f 6( ) = −0.190

44. The rate of change of people waiting in line to buy tickets to a concert is given by

w t( ) = 100 t 3 − 4t 2 − t + 7( ) for 0 ≤ t ≤ 4. 800 people are already waiting in line when the box office opens at t = 0. Which of the following expressions give the change in people waiting in line when the line is getting shorter?

B. Since w t( ) represents the rate of people waiting, w t( )t=a

t=b

∫ dt represents the change of

the number of people in line between 2 times. The line is getting shorter when its rate of change is negative. The 800 people already in line doesn't enter into it.
