MA103 Mock Midterm –Answers

**** Please remember that the mock test was meant as a means of providing an extra set of practice
questions and basis for a review class - regardless of the format for your actual midterm, we use traditional
types of problems for the mocks so that you can test your understanding of the concepts/methods involved.

Do not study for the midterm based solely on the topics covered by the mock test! Go back through
notes/labs/homework to ensure you have reviewed all concepts discussed in the course.

2. (a) F (b) F (c) T (d) F

3. (a) e2 (b) 2 (c) 0 (d) 0

4. (a) f is cont. at x = 1 (b) from (a) alone, cannot determine if f is di¤’ble at x = 1

5. k 0 (2) = 24 9 ln 3

6. y = 12x 21

7. The volume is increasing at approx. 26.8 cm3 /min when the pressure is at 80 kPa.

(b) increasing for x 2 0; e1=2 ; decreasing for x 2 e1=2 ; 1

! Note –relative and absolute maximum at e1=2 ; 5e ; no relative nor absolute minimum points
