Question 1.
Let
y = f(x) = x

+ 2x, x 1.
Then
y = (x + 1)

Hence

x + 1 1.

Question 3.
a) The left-hand limit of g(x) at x = 0 is
lim

g(x) = lim

cos x = 1
The right-hand limit is
lim
x

g(x) = lim

(1 x

) = 1
Therefore,
lim

g(x) = 1.
We have
lim
x

g g(x) = 1 6= 0 = (0)
therefore g(x) is not continuous at x = 0.
b) The graph of function y = f (x):
Question 4.
a)
(x 2)

b)
No. y = ±

so one value of x can correspond to two values of y. (The
graph fails the vertical line test.)
c) The circle is commonly parameterised by x = 2 + 2 cos t, y = 2 sin t, where increasing
t corresponds to anti-clockwise motion. To travel clockwise we can replace t with ,t
giving x = 2 + 2 cos t, y = 2 sin .t π t π

So at (0

b)
It is at rest when x

c) It changes direction at time t = 1 so the total distance traveled is

c) (5 marks) Find the total distance traveled by the particle during the first 3 seconds. —– END —– SOLUTIONS Question 1.
Let y = f (x) = x2 + 2x, x ≥ −1. √
Then y = (x + 1)2 − 1, x + 1 ≥ 0, hence x = y + 1 − 1. √ Hence f −1(x) = x + 1 − 1. Question 2. a) √ √ √ √ 6 − x − 2

Therefore, x−π π
− |x − π| 6 (x − π) sin 6 |x − π| x − π
Since lim |x − π| = 0 = − lim |x − π|, by using the the Squeeze Theorem, we obtain x→π x→π π lim (x − π) sin = 0. x→π x − π Question 3.
a) The left-hand limit of g(x) at x = 0 is lim g(x) = lim cos x = 1 x→0− x→0− The right-hand limit is lim g(x) = lim (1 − x2) = 1 x→0+ x→0+ Therefore, lim g(x) = 1. x→0 We have lim g(x) = 1 6= 0 = g(0) x→0
therefore g(x) is not continuous at x = 0.
b) The graph of function y = f (x): Question 4. a) (x − 2)2 + y2 = 4
b) No. y = ±p4 − (x − 2)2 so one value of x can correspond to two values of y. (The
graph fails the vertical line test.)
c) The circle is commonly parameterised by x = 2 + 2 cos t, y = 2 sin t, where increasing
t corresponds to anti-clockwise motion. To travel clockwise we can replace t with −t,
giving x = 2 + 2 cos t, y = −2 sin t − π ≤ t ≤ π. Question 5. a) By product and chain rules, 2 2 2
h′(x) = e−x (2 cos 2x) − 2xe−x sin 2x = 2e−x (cos 2x − x sin 2x).
b) By logarithmic differentiation,  1  ln y = ln x ln = − ln2 x x 1 2 ln x y′(x) = − y(x) x 2 ln x 1 ln x y′(x) = − x x Question 6.
By implicit differentiation, 8x + 2yy′ = 0 so y′ = −4x. y y − xy′
Differentiating both sides with respect to x again gives: y′′ = −4 . y2
So at (0, −2) we have y′ = 0 and y′′ = 2. Question 7. a) The velocity is
x′(t) = 3 (t2 − 1) , t ≥ 0
b) It is at rest when x′ = 3 (t2 − 1) = 0, t ≥ 0, that is t = 1.
c) It changes direction at time t = 1 so the total distance traveled is
|x (1) − x (0)| + |x (3) − x (1)| = |−1 − 1| + |19 − (−1)| = 22 m.
