approaches   so the value   of  the whole   expression  approaches  −1.38 . B
Use the formula for the sum of  an  infinite    geometric   series. Here    the first   term    a   is  1   and the
ratio   r   is   :39 . B
Think   about   what    happens to  the indicated   intercepts  when    all x’s are doubled and all y’s are
quadrupled. The x-intercepts    become  2   and −2, and the y-intercepts    become  4   and −4.
Choice  (B) fits.40 .    B
To  find    the limit   of  this    expression  as  n   approaches  infinity,   think   about   what    happens as  n
gets    extremely   large.  What    happens is  that    the n^2     terms   become  so  huge    that    they    dwarf   all
other   terms   into    insignificance. So  you can think   of  the expression  as, in  effect,

If  log 2 (x^2  −   3)  =   5,  then    x^2     −   3   =    25     =   32:42 . C
If  2   is  a   zero,   then    x   −   2   is  a   factor. Factor  that    out of  the polynomial   6 x^3 −    11x^2   −   3x  +   2:Now you have    a   quadratic   equation:
