November 13 Mathematics 105 Mr. Haines 2009 Calculus I Examination #
(10) I. Solve the Initial Value Problem:
(i) 2 3 cos( 2 )^3 1
' x x e x
y + + + −
(ii) (^) y ( 0 )= 0
(20) II. Calculate y ′^ if
A. y = 3 x cos( 5 x ).
B. y = sin( 2 x + 1 ).
(10) IV. Find the following limits. For full credit, show your work and explain your reasoning:
x
x x 7 7
lim 3 −
B. (^) x x x 3
lim (^2) + 1 → ∞
(10) V. If x and y are positive real numbers whose product is 16, find the minimum value taken on by x + y^2.
(10) VII. Use Newton’s Method to try to find roots for f ( x )= x^2 + x + 1
A. The iteration function for f ( x )is
N ( x ) = ____________________________.
B. If the initial guess is x 0 = 1, compute the next three approximations:
x 1 = __________________________________.
x 2 = __________________________________.
x 3 = __________________________________.
x 4 = __________________________________.
C. Sketch a graph of y = f ( x )and explain why you get the approximations you do.
