Show all work for credit.  Write all responses on separate paper.

 

1.      Compute and simplify the average rate of change of  over the given interval.  Remember that the average rate of change on the interval [a, b] is the slope of the secant line connecting [a, f(a)] with  [b, f(b)].

a.       [0, 3]

b.      [a, a+h]

2.      Find the maximum value of the given function and state its range in interval notation.

a.        

b.     

3.      Consider the quadratic  

a.       Express the quadratic function in standard form.

b.      Sketch its graph.

c.       What transformations would be required to transform this function to .

 

4.      Given the graph of  shown at right, graph

a.        

b.       

c.        

d.       

 

5.      A mouse stands at point A on the bank of a straight canal, 20 feet wide.  To reach point B,
70 feet down the canal on the opposite bank, it swims to a point P on the opposite bank and then crawls the remaining distance to B.  The mouse swims at 5 feet per minute and crawls at 10 feet per minute.

 

6.      Consider  

a.       Write a formula for the function that results from shifting 2 units left, reflecting
in the y-axis and then stretching horizontally by a factor 3, in that order.

b.      What transformations on f(x), in order, would produce this formula:  

7.      Suppose  and .

a.       Find the domain of  

b.      Find the domain of  

8.      Find a formula for the inverse function of  and sketch a graph for  and  together showing the symmetry through the line y = x.
