• You may use a scientific calculator.
• Use proper notation – symbols, equals signs, . . . .
• If you are instructed to use a specific technique for a problem, use that technique.
• Correct answers without support (or with incorrect work) will receive minimal credit.
• If you have any questions or need extra paper, please come to the front of the room.
1. True or False Clearly mark each statement as True (‘T’) or False (‘F’), please do not
leave any of these blank!
(a) We can always evaluate limits by direct substitution.
(b) To compute the limit of f(x) =1
xas x ! 1, we know arithmetically that
1
1 = 0.
(c) The slope of the secant line and average rate of change describe the same quantity.
(d) Polynomials are continuous everywhere.
(e) To evaluate certain limits it can be helpful or necessary to rationalize radicals or
factor and divide common terms.
(f) For constants c and a, limx!a
c = a.
(g) If f(a) = L, then we know that limx!a
f(x) = L.
(h) When evaluating limits,0
0is always 0.
(i) limx!3�
x = 3�
(j) The derivative of a sum can be simplified as the sum of the derivatives.
(k) The limit of a product can be simplified as the product of the limits.
