1.(5 marks) Evaluate the following limit.

lim xโ†’โˆ’ 1

x^2 โˆ’ 1 3 x + 3

Solution: (^) xlimโ†’โˆ’ 1 x^2 โˆ’ 1 3 x + 3 = (^) xlimโ†’โˆ’ 1 (x โˆ’ 1)(x + 1) 3(x + 1) = (^) xlimโ†’โˆ’ 1 x โˆ’ 1 3

2.(5 marks) Find the derivative of the following function by using the โ€œdefinition of derivativeโ€.

f (x) = 8x^2 โˆ’ 5 x + 1

Solution: lim hโ†’ 0

f (x + h) โˆ’ f (x) h = lim hโ†’ 0

8(x + h)^2 โˆ’ 5(x + h) + 1 โˆ’ (8x^2 โˆ’ 5 x + 1) h

lim hโ†’ 0

8 x^2 + 16xh + 8h^2 โˆ’ 5 x โˆ’ 5 h + 1 โˆ’ 8 x^2 + 5x โˆ’ 1 h = lim hโ†’ 0

16 xh + 8h^2 โˆ’ 5 h h = lim hโ†’ 0

h(16x + 8h โˆ’ 5) h

f (r) = r(2r + 1)^3

Solution: f โ€ฒ(r) = (2r + 1)^3 + 6r(2r + 1)^2 f โ€ฒโ€ฒ(r) = 6(2r + 1)^2 + 6(2r + 1)^2 + 24r(2r + 1)

y^2 + 2x^2 = 6 at (1, โˆ’2)

Solution: 2 yyโ€ฒ^ + 4x = 0 โˆ’โ†’ yโ€ฒ^ = โˆ’ 4 x 2 y

5.(10 marks) Given the function f (x) = x^3 โˆ’ 3 x;

(a) Find all relative maximum and relative minimum.

Solution: f โ€ฒ(x) = 3x^2 โˆ’ 3 = 0 โˆ’โ†’ x^2 = 1 โˆ’โ†’ x = 1 or x = โˆ’ 1 If x = 1 then y = โˆ’2, and if x = โˆ’1 then y = 2. So the points (1, โˆ’2) and (โˆ’ 1 , 2) are relative maximum and minimum.

(b) Find the points of inflection.

Solution: f โ€ฒโ€ฒ(x) = 6x = 0 โˆ’โ†’ x = 0 and f (0) = 0. So (0, 0) is the point of reflection.

(c) Sketch the graph of f (x).

Solution:
