1.   Let   f (x) = x + 8,   and   g(x) = x3.   Then  f (g(2)) = ? 

 4             7            8            14          16


2.          Find   h-1(x).  

                         

           


3.   Let  W(x) = x2 – 5.      Then  W(W(1)) = ?    

  9             10             11           

12          None of these


For problems # 4 & 5, suppose that g is an even function and f is an odd function. 


4.   Then    H(x) = f(f(f(x))) + (f(x))3   is 

Even           Odd         Neither even nor odd  


5.   Then      is
 

Even           Odd          Neither even nor odd  


Problems # 6 - 8 refer to the function:

          


 6.                 –1              0              1

                                              –2             Doesn't exist


7.                  –1              0              1

                                              –2             Doesn't exist


8.                    –1              0              1

                                               –2             Doesn't exist


9.             0              p/2              p

                                                1             Infinity


10.  Suppose you know that h is an odd function,
       and that
      Then   

–3              3              –5

5          Insufficient information


11.         

                     0              2              3

                                                     5             Doesn't exist


12.   

0              1              2

3/2          Doesn't exist


13.     

0              13/7              –15/7

16/7          Doesn't exist


14.     

0              3              3/7

Infinity          Doesn't exist


15.     

0              3              –3

2          Infinity


In problems #16-18. find any points of discontinuity of the functions in problems.   Specify whether or not the discontinuity is removable.   Use N for "non-removable" and R for "removable".


16.     

3, N           3, R           2, N

2, R        No discontinuity points


 17.            
 

p, N          p, R         –p, N

p, R      No discontinuity points


18.  

9, N         9, R         12, N

12, R       No discontinuity points


For problems # 19 and 20, what value of a makes the function continuous at x=1?


19.  

0              –1               2

–3          5/2


20.  

5              –5              –3

3          3/5
