ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS. Questions carry equal marks. In every question it is essential to
explain your reasoning and to provide details of the intermediate steps taken in reaching your
answers.


Answers are to be written in this booklet. Do not remove or insert any pages. IF you need extra space for
your answers use blank pages 12 & 13, but CLEARLY indicate, see P.12 or see P.13. If you use the flip
side of a page, ensure you indicate, see over page.

Make sure you write your Name and Student Number on this page.

You will not be allowed to leave during the final 15 minutes of the examination period in order to avoid
disruption to those continuing to work on the paper.

Question 1.
a) Consider the function g(x) = ln(cos(x)). Determine its domain and range.
b) Above g(x) is a many-to-one mapping, and therefore does not possess an inverse function unless its
domain is restricted. Work out g
-1
(x) for an appropriately restricted g(x). [You do not need to work out
the domain and range of g
-1
(x).]

why not.

Question 6.
Make an analysis (natural domain, range, symmetry if any, asymptotes if any, increasing/decreasing regions,
relative and absolute max and min if any, concave up/down regions, points of inflection if any, etc.) of the function
y = xe
x
.
Sketch the curve, labelling axes, and any of the following if they exist: intercepts, asymptotes, max and min, and
inflection. Clearly indicate intervals where the function is increasing or decreasing, and concave up or concave
down.

Question 7.
You are an engineer in charge of building a cylindrical building consisting of a curved wall
and the roof. (Note: no floor.) Denote its height by h, and radius r. Its volume has been
specified as V. The curved side cost $1 per sq. m. The roof costs $N per sq. m. Write down
an expression for the cost of material, C.
Work out the dimensions of the tank that would minimize the cost of material, and show that
the ratio of h to r is N.
Note: for full credit you must specify domain, identify critical numbers, use an appropriate
test to show that a minimum is attained, and so on. (You do NOT need to calculate the cost.)
You may assume that the surface area of the curved wall of the cylinder as the circumference
of the circular end multiplied by the height.


Question 8. Consider the function f(x) = x
2
- 2 over the interval [3,6]. Then,
a) Write out and evaluate the Riemann Sum R

and choosing sample points

b) Generalize to N equal sub-intervals, and write an expression for R
