22) E.
Solution:To find the derivative of f(x), we will need to use the product rule since the equation is 2 separate
functions, e
2x
and cot(2x), being multiplied by each other. Furthermore, you must alsosee that we will be using the chain rule as we work through the product rule:
f (x) = (first)(derivative of the second) + (second)(derivative of the first)f (x) = (e2x) (-csc2(2x) (2) ) + (cot(2x))( e2x(2) )
After you take a derivative, you need to factor out what is in common:
f (x) = 2e2x[-csc2(2x) + cot(2x)]
So the answer is E since the inside of the brackets above were just switched.

23) B.
Solution:In this question you have to notice tan is the outside function for sin(3x), it is not being
multiplied, but rather sin(3x) is inside of tan, making this the chain rule. So we will takethe derivative of the outside function, tan, then multiply by the derivative inside function,sin (3x).
f (x) = sec2( sin (3x) ) ( cos (3x) ) (3)
You may notice the 3 on the last part is due to the derivative of sin (3x) being cos (3x)times 3, another chain rule!
So the answer is B.
24) C
Solution:
Here we will use the quotient rule:2

f xL

3 2
6
(4 3) (1) 3(4 3) 4'( )
(4 3)

Next we need to factor:2
6
(4 3) [(4 3) 3(4)]'( )
(4 3)
x x xf x
x
+ + =

Now reduce the 4x+3 in the numerator and denominator, and clean up inside thebrackets:
4
3 8'( )
(4 3)
xf x
x

So using the chain rule with this derivative, we get:
1
2
1 1(tan )
2 21

d x
dx x

i
Now we need to use our algebra skills to clean this up, I will start with the denominator:
2 2 2
1 1 1 1 1 1
2 2 24 41
4 4 4 4
x x x

+ + +
i i i
Now 1 divided by anything is equivalent to multiplying by the reciprocal, meaning:
2 2

i i and now reduce the fraction to get:2 2
4 1 2
4 2 4x x

i
So the answer is E.
26) D.
Solution:Here I would use the quotient rule:
2'( )

Now we need to clean up the numerator:

27) C.
Solution:
Here, you have to be careful with your rules, to split up the problem (since everything is
being added), I will look at each term and take the derivative:
( )xd
xdx
use the product rule, so the derivative = ( )( ln ) ( )(1)x xx +
( )d
xdx
use the power rule, so the derivative = 1x
( )d
dx
this is a constant, so the derivative = 0.
Add all these together and the answer is C.
28) B.
Solution:
Here we will take the derivative and plug in 0. You have to recall
1

Now we take the derivative as follows:
2 2
9 2
1(log ( 1)) (2)
( 1) ln 9
x x
x
de e
dx e+ =
+i
In this case we also needed to use the chain rule for 2 1xe + , where 2 2( 1) (2)x xd
e edx
+ =
Now we do not need to simplify, but rather just plug in x = 0 into the derivative, so2(0)
2(0)
1 1 1'(0) (2) (2)
( 1) ln 9 (2) ln 9 ln 9f e
e= = =

So the answer is B.
30) E.
Solution:
Here we will take the derivative recalling the following rule: ( ) lnx xd
a a adx
= , also keep
in mind we will use the chain rule for the derivative of the inside, 2x 1.
2 1'( ) 2 ln 2(2)xf x =
Again, the last (2) is because of the chain rule.
At this point, plug in x = 0.
2(0) 1 1'(0) 2 ln 2(2) 2 ln 2(2) ln 2f = = =
So the answer is E.

31) E.
Solution:
For f (0), we need to take the derivative and plug in 0.
2'( ) 12 (2 (2)) cosx x f x x xe e x= + +
You may notice for the second term, I used the product rule.
Now plugging in x = 0 we get:2 0 0'(0) 12(0) (2(0) (2)) cos0 f e e= + + = 0 (0 + 2) + 1 = -2 + 1 = -1 (answer).
We also need f (0), so we will take the derivative again. First, I will rewrite thederivative:
2'( ) 12 (2 (2)) cosx x f x x xe e x= + + 2'( ) 12 2 2 cosx x f x x xe e x= +
Now when taking the derivative again, the second term will require the product rule,giving us:
''( ) 24 (2 (2)) 2 sin x x x f x x xe e e x= +
Plugging in x = 0 gives us:0 0 0''(0) 24(0) (2(0) (2)) 2 sin 0 f e e e= + =0 (0+2) 2 0 = -4
So f (0) = -1, f (0) = -4, the answer is E.

32) C.
Solution:We can either
I. use a product rule, quotient rule, AND chain rule, OR
II. use logarithmic differentiation.
In this case I will use logarithmic differentiation.We start by taking the ln of both sides:
4ln ln

I will simplify the right side:
4ln

xe x
x

ln ln 4 ln( 1) ln( 4) ln( 1)2
xe x x x x x+ + = + +
Now we have:
1ln ln( 4) ln( 1)
2 y x x x= + +
Take the derivative to get:
1 1 1 11
2 4 1
dy
y dx x x= +

Multiply by y on both sides (which is the ORIGINAL EQUATION) to get:
1 1 1 4
1 2 4 1 1
xdy e x
dx x x x

= + +
Now plug in x = 0.01 1 1 0 4

33) A.
Solution:To find the equation of a line, we need point and slope.
The point comes from the original.
Plug in x = 0 into f(x) to get:4(0)
2 0 2 1(0)
3 3 1 2f
e
+= = =
+ +, so we have POINT:
1(0, )

To find the slope, we need to take the derivative using the quotient rule:
2'( )
LdH HdLf x
L
=
4 4
4 2
(3 )(1) (2 )( (4))
'( ) (3 )
x x

e x e
f x e

You may notice the (4) at the end of the top right of the derivative came from the
derivative of 4xe .
Now we need to plug in x = 0 for the slope (no need to simplify since all we need is theslope).
4(0) 4(0)
4(0) 2
(3 )(1) (2 0)( (4))'(0)
(3 )
e ef
e

Now we have point and slope, we can use point-slope form: 1 1( )y y m x x =
Point:1
(0, )2
Slope:1
4 Line:
1 1( 0)
2 4y x = ,

HOWEVER, the question asked for the slope of the NORMAL line, so the slope of the
normal line is the perpendicular slope, which is9
11 , so the answer is E.
35) B.
Solution:To find a horizontal tangent line, we need to find where f (x) = 0.

Solution:To find a horizontal tangent line, we need to find where f (x) = 0.
Taking the derivative, we need to use the product rule:f (x) = (first)(derivative of the second) + (second)(derivative of the first)Note: We will also use the chain rule while taking the derivative.
Now the derivative is:1 2'( ) ( )(2(3 6) (3)) (3 6) (1) f x x x x= +
Since we set it equal to zero, we will need to factor to solve:1 2( )(2(3 6) (3)) (3 6) (1) 0
(3 6)( (2)(3) 3 6) 0
(3 6)(6 3 6) 0(3 6)(9 6) 0

Now we have
POINT: (3,0)

41) D.
Solution:
A(x)= g(f(x))
A (x) will be the chain rule, giving us:A (x) = g (f(x)) f (x)
Plug in x = 1 to obtain:A (1) = g (f(1)) f (1)
We have f(1) and f (1)A (1) = g (-1) (-2)
All we need is g (-1), well we have 2( ) 3g x x x= + , so '( ) 6 1g x x= + , and '( 1) 5g = .
So we have
A (1) = (-5)(-1) = 10So the answer is D.

so the answer is A.
43) E.
Solution:P) We have a discontinuity at x = 0, so if f(x) is not continuous at x=0, it is notdifferentiable at x = 0. Thus the given statement is TRUE.
Q) f(0) = 0, so the function is continuous, but that does not imply differentiability. We
need to take the derivative and obtain1

and hence not differentiable. Thus the given statement is FALSE.
R) It may appear that the answer is false, however if you graph f(x) = |x 1|, you will seethe x value that is being asked is NOT the point where it changes, so the statement endsup being TRUE.
So the answer is E.

Plug in all the answers until you get a solution with f(x) < 0, and f (x) > 0 and you will
see the answer is C.
46) C. First, to find where the function is decreasing, we used the first derivative. Withthe first derivative, we will find the critical points, draw a number line, and find where itis increasing and decreasing:
f (x) = 9x2 18x 72 = 9(x2 2x -8). Setting this equal to zero gives you criticalpoints of x = -2 and x = 4. Plotting these on a number line and testing points willshow you that f(x) is decreasing on (-2, 4).
Now do the same thing with the second derivative to find where f is concave up andconcave down:
f (x) = 18x 18. Setting this equal to zero gives you an inflection point at x = 1.Plotting this on a number line and testing points will show you that f is concave
down on (-, 1).
So f(x) is BOTH decreasing and concave down on the interval (-2, 1)

Now set this derivative equal to 0 and set up a number line, but remember the domain of the
original function. You cannot take the ln of 0 or a negative number, so the number line actually
starts at 0, not -.
0 = 4 + 2ln x

Remember there is a minimum when the derivative goes from negative to positive (when theoriginal graph goes from decreasing to increasing) around a critical number. And there is amaximum when the derivative goes from positive to negative around a critical number. So we
have no maximum and we have a minimum at x =3

51) C. To find the inflection points first take the second derivative and set it equal to zero.f(x) = x6 10x4 6x + 24f (x) = 6x5 40x3 6f (x) = 30x4 120x2 = 30x2(x2 4) =30x2(x 2)(x + 2)
Setting f (x) equal to 0 and solving gives you x = 0, 2, and -2. Now plot these points on a
number line and test points to see where the second derivative changes signs. Remember, thex-value is only an inflection point if the second derivative changes signs, and is in the domain ofthe original (in this case the domain is all reals).

So the only inflection points are x = 2 and -2.

Setting the numerator and denominator equal to zero gives you x = 0, 2, and -2.However, x = 2 and -2 are not in the domain of the original, thus the only critical numberis x = 0.
53) B.
A. FALSE. To find out if f has a maximum at x = 0, find the critical numbers bysetting the top and bottom of the first derivative equal to 0. This gives you x = 0
and x =3
5 . Plotting these on a number line and testing points will show that
f(x) is increasing on (-,3
5 ) U (0, ) and decreasing on (
3
5 , 0). This means
that at x = 0, f (x) goes from negative to positive. So x = 0 is a relativeminimum, not a relative maximum.
B. TRUE. Since the denominator of the derivative equals 0 at x = 0. This means
that x = 0 is a vertical tangent since f (x) is undefined AND in the domain of f(x).Since the first derivative goes from a negative slope to a positive slope at x = 0, ithas a cusp.
C. FALSE. See explanation for B.D. FALSE. f(x) is continuous so it does not have a hole.E. FALSE. f(x) does not have a vertical asymptote because f(0) is defined.

54) B.
Plug each x-value of the horizontal tangent line into the second derivative:f(-2) = -5f(0) = 3f(2) = -5.
Using the second derivative test this tells you that there is a maximum at x = 2 and -2,and there is a minimum at x = 0.
55) B. Use the second derivative test for this problem. Test x = -1, 0, and 4 because those arecritical numbers.
f (-1) = +, so it is a minimumf (0) = + so it is a minimumf (4) = - so it is a maximum

Set the numerator and denominator to zero to get x = 0, 4, and 2, however x = 0 and 2 arenot the interval so we do not use them. Now plug 3, 4, and 7 into f(x) to obtain themaximum and minimum.
f(3) = 9, f(4) = 8, f(7) = 495

64) B. Remember the formula for linearization is L(x) = f (a) + f (a) (x a). (or just use point-slope form)
The point is at x = 1, and f(1) = 1 ln 1 = 0. Thus we have the point (1,0)
Now for the derivative (product rule):
1'( ) ln f x x x
x

1'(1) 1 ln1

So the slope is 1.
Now just plug everything else into the linearization formula (or point-slope form of a line)L(x) = 0 + 1 (x 1) = x 1.

To find the maximum and minimum values of f(x), take the derivative and set it equal to zero to
find critical numbers. Plug in any critical numbers, that are in the interval [0, 4], and the
endpoints of the interval back into the original function. The highest value is the maximum, the
lowest is the minimum.

will never equal 0, so we only need to look at 2x 4 = 0, which happens at x = 2.
f(0) = 1
f(2) = e-4
f(4) = 1So the maximum value is at 1 and the minimum is at e-4. To find the upper and lower bound,
multiply by 4, the length of the interval of. This gives you:

This is an optimization problem. So we need the primary and constraint:Using 2 numbers, call them x and y, we have:Primary: Maximize the product, so P = xy
Constraint: x + 2y = 32
Solve the constraint for one variable, plug into the primary.
x = 32 2yP = (32 2y)y = 32y 2y2
Take the derivative, set equal to zero, and solve.
P= 32 4y = 0y = 8
Plug back into the constraint for the x.
x = 32 2(8) = 16
So the maximum product P = xy = (16)(8) = 128 (answer).
91. C.Here, you need a primary and a constraint:
Primary: Perimeter = P = 2x + 3y (it said to minimize this, and remember theinner part).Constraint: Area = 216= xy (given info).
Solve the constraint for one variable:216/x = y
Plug into the primary:P = 2x + 3(216/x) = 2x + 648/x
Take the derivative, set it equal to zero, and solveP = 0 = 2 648/x22 =648/x2
2x2 = 648x2 = 324x = 18, -18x = 18 since it is a real world problem, and we cant have a dimension of 18.
Now, plug x = 18 into the constraint to get the y value.216 = 18yy = 12
