2.) Consider the curve in the plane given by the equation x2 y + y 3 + x2 = 8. Find all points on this curve where the tangent line to the curve is horizontal.
where a and b are arbitrary real numbers. For what values of a and b the function f is dierentiable at every point.
4.) A and B are walking on straight streets which are perpendicular to each other and which intersect at point O. Let denote the angle OBA. Suppose A approaches O at 2 m/sec while B moves away from O at 1 m/sec. At what rate is changing when A is 10m. and B is 20m. away from O?
5.) Using the formal denition of limit at innity, show that lim
1 = 0. x 2x
6.) True or false: If f and f + g are continuous functions at point a, then g is continuous at a. Justify your answer.
