A is not true because the limit approaching a does not equal the function value at a.

B  is not true because f(a) is not the lowest value of the function in a neighborhood around a.

C x=a is in the domain of f since there is a value for f(a).

D is true since limit as you approach a from the right and as you approach a from the left is the same.

E is true.  Since D is true then E would be true too.

Answer A
77.  Graphing the derivative of each function we can then find the value of x that gives the same slope.

x=-3906

Answer C
78.

Answer B
79. Graph f ' changes from positive to negative therefore the function f is increasing and then decreasing.  Therefore a relative maximum occurs at the location of this change.  The other two graphs do not have this quality. Answer A
80.

Based on the graph of f ':

There are three critical values for f in the interval (0,10)

Answer B
81.The absolute value function is continuous at x=0 since the limit of the function equals 0 as you approach x=0 from the left and the right.

The absolute value function is not differentiable at x=0 since the limit on the slope as you approach x=0 from the left is -1 and from the right is +1. 

The absolute value function has a absolute minimum at x=0.  All other function values in the domain are larger than 0.

Answer C
86.Using the function x+2y=8 and solving for y: 

This is the diameter of the semicircle, so the radius is

Answer C
87.

Solving for the zero:

Therefore the place where the slope is 1 is at x=.2367329.

The tangent line then is y=1(x-.2367329)+.1152256 or y=x-0.122

Answer D
88.

The final step is calculated in the calculator:

 
   
89.  We know that g(x) < 0 so the sign of f ' can be determined by studying the other factor

This factor is positive when x> 2 or x<-2 and negative between x=-2 and x=2. 

 

The sign study for f ' is

x<-2 x=-2 -2<x<2 x=2 x>2
negative 0 positive 0 negative

Therefore f is described as follows:

x<-2 x=-2 -2<x<2 x=2 x>2
decreasing leveling off increasing leveling off decreasing

There is a relative minimum at x = -2 and a relative maximum at x = 2

Answer B
90.
