Sketch a graph of the erivative; make sure that your sketch is positive/negative/zero in the right places, an that it has the right shape. 2 You shoul plug numbers in for x that are close to 2. They shoul be close enough that you get two approximations of f (2) that are the same to the secon ecimal place. You shoul always use at least 8 igits in every step of the calculation.
0 To see how to make the secon graph, start with the points where f is flat: graph of f(x) : m = 0 at x =.5 an x =.5
MA 5, Applie Calculus, Fall 207, Final Exam Preview This means that the graph of f (x) shoul have graph of f (x) : y = 0 at x =.5 an x =.5 Similarly, see where f is going up: graph of f(x) : m 2 at x = 2 an x = 2 This means that the graph of f (x) shoul have graph of f (x) : y = 2 at x = 2 an x = 2 Finally, see where f is going own: graph of f(x) : m 3 at x = 0 This means that the graph of f (x) shoul have graph of f (x) : y = 3 at x = 0 Marginal Cost an Revenue 0. The graph below shows a total cost function. Estimate the marginal cost at q = 700. We start by graphing a tangent line (simply move a straight ege towars the graph of C(q) until it just barely touches the graph at q = 700) Now we estimate the slope of the straight line. The best way to o this is to use points that are as far apart as possible, or to see if the line intersects exactly at one of the gri points. I ll use points far apart: (0, 20) an (000, 80)

Shown below is a graph of cost an revenue for a certain company: (a) If the prouction level is q = 400, shoul the company increase prouction to q = 40? Why or why not? Here s what the graphs look like with a small part of the tangent lines shown:
8 It shoul be clear that the slope of C is less than the slope of R. In other wors: so they shoul increase prouction. MR > MC profit increases with q (b) Fin two critical points of profit. Which one has maximum profit? Why? We fin two points where the slopes are the same for C an R: these are at q = 26 an q = 730: The one that is maximum profit is q = 730. The best way to tell this is just to the left of 730 we have MR > MC an just to the right we have MR < MC. 9.

Thus, MC(3) > a(3) an so the average cost is increasing. Interpreting Integrals as Velocity an Area 2.
