  1. The correct answer is (B).

(–1, –1) y = –x^2

0

y = x

Find the intersection points by settingx=−x^2.
Rewritex=−x^2 asx^2 +x=0orx(x+ 1 )= 0
and obtainx=0 andx=−1. The area of the
region bounded by the curves is

  1. The correct answer is (D).


Applying the quotient rule for derivatives, you
havef′(x)=
( 2 )( 2 x− 1 )^2 − 2 ( 2 x− 1 )( 2 )( 2 x)
( 2 x− 1 )^4
=
2 ( 2 x− 1 ) [(( 2 x− 1 )− 4 x)]
( 2 x− 1 )^4
=
2 ( 2 x− 1 )(− 2 x− 1 )

  1. The correct answer is (C).


Sincefandgare inverse functions, if (a,b)is
on the graph off, then (b,a) is on the graph

ofg, andg′(b)=

f′(a)

. Note thatf(4)=2,
which implies thatg(2)=4. Therefore,

  1. The correct answer is (B).
    Note that the slopes of the tangents depend on
    they-coordinates and only they-coordinates.
    Also, note that wheny>1, the slopes are
    positive, and wheny<1, the slopes are
    negative. Of the given choices, only the
    differential equation in choice B satisfies these
    conditions.

  2. The correct choice is (D).
    Sincef′′(x)>0,f′(x)is increasing, and in
    this case, f′(4.5)<f′(4.6)< f′(4.7). Note
    thatf′( 4. 5 )≈


10. 2 − 10


4. 6 − 4. 5


≈2, and

f′(4.7)≈

10. 8 − 10. 2


4. 7 − 4. 6


≈6. Also note that
slope of tangent=f′(4.6); therefore,
2 <f′(4.6)<6.

(4.7, 10.8)

Slope = 6

Slope = 2
