For what values of f is f not continuous? 0 8 6 4 4 6 8 0 f is continuous but not differentiable at x = and at x = 7, since at those points the graph is unbroken but has corners f is not continuous at x = 4 and at x = 40 a) Find the average rate of change of fx) = x + 3x 4 on the interval x 3 f3) f) 3 = 4 0 3 = 7 3

b) Find the instantaneous rate of change of fx) = x + 3x 4 at x = 3 f x) = x + 3, so f 3) = 6 + 3 = 9 4 Give an example of a function fx) which is defined for all x and a number c such that fx) fc) x c There are lots of possible answers to this question For example, let { fx) = x if x 0 if x = 0 Then fx) = x = 0, but f0) = x 0 x 0 Of course, the condition x c fx) fc) means that the function is not continuous at c The value of x c fx) or even its existence) does not depend on the value of fc) or even its existence) 4 Compute x 4 x x x 4 x x = x )x + ) x )x + ) = x + x + = 4 3 Since plugging in x = gives 0, it is reasonable to suppose that the zeros are being caused by a common 0 factor on the top and the bottom So factor the top and the bottom and cancel the x s After that, plugging in x = a second time gives 4 3 x + x 3 43 Compute x 3 x 9 x + x 3 x 3 x is undefined 9 If I plug in x = 3, I get, a nonzero number over 0 In this case, the it does not exist 0 By the way, I hope you didn t try to use L Hôpital s Rule here It doesn t apply) 44 Compute x 3 x + x 3 x 9 x + x 3 x 3 x = 9 This problem is different from the previous one because x is approaching 3 from the left It would not be incorrect to say that the it is undefined, but it is better to say that the it is There is a vertical asymptote at x = 3, and the graph goes downward to ) as it approaches the asymptote from the left How do you see algebraically that this is what it does? One way is to plug numbers close to 3, but less than 3, into x + x 3 x For example, if x = 99999, x + x 3 9 x 99999 a big negative number 9 This doesn t prove that it s going to, but it s pretty good evidence 4

Here is how I can analyze it I know that plugging in x = 3 gives Therefore, I should be getting 0 either + or the reciprocal of something small 0) should be something big Now let x approach 3 from the left x + x 3 surely goes to, a positive number x 9 goes to 0, but since x < 3, x 9 will be negative Now positive = negative, so the answer is negative 3x 7 5x 4 + x 45 Compute x + 0 x 4 3x 7 3x 7 5x 4 + x 3 5 x + 0 x 4 3x 7 = x 3 + x 6 x 7 3 0 + 0 0 x + 0 x 7 = = x 3 3 0 0 3 Divide the top and bottom by the highest power of x that occurs in either in this case, x 7 Then use the fact that number = 0 x ± xpositivepower 3x 7 5x 4 + x 46 Compute x + 0 x 4 3x 6 3x 7 5x 4 + x 3 5 x + 0 x 4 3x 6 = x 3 + x 6 x 7 x + 0 x 7 x 3 3 x = 3 0 + 0 0 0 0 0 = There s little question that the it is undefined; why is it? One approach is to note that the top and bottom are dominated by the highest powers of x So this its looks like x + 3x 7 3x 6 = x = x + As a check, if you plug x = 0 6 into 3x7 5x 4 + x 0 x 4 3x 6, you get approximately) 0 6 x 47 Compute x x x x x ) x + ) = = x + ) = + = x x x x Plugging in x = gives 0 As usual, I look for a common factor that is producing the zeros Since the 0 bottom is smaller than the top, it s reasonable to see if the bottom is actually a factor or the top It is; I cancel the x s, and plug in to finish 5 x + 5 48 Compute x 7 5 x + 5 x 7 = 5 9 5 475 5

Nothing going on here I just plug in x = By the way Do you know how to compute 5 9 5 on your calculator?) 3x + 4 sin 3x 49 Compute x 0 tan 5x x cosx x 0 3x + 4 sin 3x tan 5x x cosx = x 0 3x + 4 sin 3x = sin 5x cos5x x cosx x 0 3x + 4 sin 3x sin 5x cos5x x cosx x x = x 0 sin 5x x sin 3x 3 + 4 x = cos5x cosx 3 + 4 3 sin 3x 3x = x 0 sin 5x 5 5x cos5x cosx 3 + 5 = 5 4 50 Suppose { 6 if x 3 fx) = x 9 x 3 if x > 3 Determine whether x 3 fx) is defined If it is, compute it Since { 6 if x 3 fx) = x 9 x 3 if x > 3 is made of two pieces glued together at x = 3, I ll compute x 3 fx) by computing the its from the left and right, and seeing if they re equal If they aren t equal, the it is undefined) The left-hand it is The right-hand it is fx) = 6 = 6 x 3 x 3 x 9 fx) = x 3+ x 3+ x 3 = x 3)x + 3) = x + 3) = 6 x 3+ x 3 x 3+ Since the left- and right-hand its are equal, x 3 fx) is defined, and fx) = 6 x 3 6

Factor the bottom: y = x xx 6)x + ) The function is undefined at x = 0, x = 6, and at x = Note that x x 0 xx 6)x + ) = x x 0 x 6)x + ) = 0 Hence, the graph does not have a vertical asymptote at x = 0 Consider the its at x = 6 I know the one-sided its will be either + or, since plugging in x = 6 gives 36 0, a nonzero number divided by 0 Take x 6 + as an example x 36, x 6, x + 7, and x 6 0 In the last case, since x > 6, x x 6 > 0, ie x 6 goes to 0 through positive numbers Since all the factors of are positive xx 6)x + ) as x 6 +, the quotient must be positive, and the it is + Similar reasoning works for the left-hand it Thus, x x = + and x 6 + xx 6)x + ) x 6 + xx 6)x + ) = There is a vertical asymptote at x = 6 Likewise, x x = + and x + xx 6)x + ) x + xx 6)x + ) = There is a vertical asymptote at x = The results are visible in the graph of the function: 0 5-4 6-5 -0 53 Find the value of c which makes the following function continuous at x = : fx) = { + 3x cx if x < 7x + 3 if x For f to be continuous at x =, fx) must be defined This will happen if the left and right-hand its at x = are equal Compute the its: fx) = + +7x + 3) = 7, fx) = + 3x cx ) = 7 4c 8

Set the left and right-hand its equal and solve for c: 7 4c = 7, 4c = 0, c = 5 This value of c will make the left and right-hand its equal to 7, so in this case, fx) = 7 Since f) = 7, it follows that fx) = f), and f is continuous at x = 54 Suppose f is continuous, f) = 3, and f5) = Prove that there is a number x between and 5 such that x 3 fx) = 0 x 3 and fx) are continuous, so x 3 fx) is continuous When x =, x 3 fx) = 8 3 = 04 When x = 5, x 3 fx) = 5 = 5 Since x 3 fx) is continuous, and since 0 is between 04 and 5, the Intermediate Value Theorem says that there is a number x between and 5 such that x 3 fx) = 0 55 Suppose that gx) = 3, hx) = 9, and x + 8)gx) fx) x + )hx) for all x Compute fx) x + 8)gx) = 3 = 36 and x + )hx) = 4 9 = 36 By the Squeezing Theorem, fx) = 36 56 Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve x 3 + xy 3 = x y + 3 at the point, ) Differentiate implicitly: Plug in x =, y = : The tangent line is 3x + y 3 + 6xy y = x yy 3 + + 6y = y, y = 3 8 3 x ) = y 8 57 Find y at the point, ) on the curve Differentiate implicitly: x 3 y + x = y 3 y x 3 y + 3x y + 4x = 3y y y ) Plug in x = and y = and solve for y : y + 6 + 4 = y y, y = 0 9 9
