AP CALCULUS, LEVELS AB AND BC CHAPTER 1 TEST 2010 2011

NAME__________________________________________________________________ COMMENT OF THE DAY_________________________________________________

INSTRUCTIONS: This test has two sections, A and B, and will be administered over two class periods. During the first testing period you are to work on both sections of the test without the aid of a calculator. You must complete Section A by the end of this period. During the second testing period, you may use a calculator to continue working on Section B. Unless otherwise specified, answers to questions in Section A must be in exact form. In Section B your answers may be rounded, but must be correct to whatever level of accuracy you give (this should not be a problem, as long as you avoid rounding in mid-computation). To maximize your potential for partial credit, please show all work. PROBLEM NUMBER A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 B1 B2 TOTAL POINTS POSSIBLE 12 12 14 16 14 14 18 100 POINTS EARNED

b.

f ( x ) = ln ( x )

c.

f ( x ) = sin x 2

d.

f ( x) =3 x

NAME__________________________________________________________________

A2.(12 points) Find a formula for the function whose graph consists of all points 2 2 along the line segment joining ( 3, ) and (1, ) other than these endpoints themselves, the top half of the circle of radius 1 centered at ( 2,0) including the two points at which this circle intersects the x-axis, and all points to the right of (3,0 ) along the line with equation y = x 3 . What are the domain and range of this function?

NAME__________________________________________________________________

A3.(14 points) Sketch the graph of the function f ( x ) =ln ln x . Your graph should be correct with respect to intercepts and symmetry; asymptotic behavior; and intervals on which f is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative.

NAME__________________________________________________________________

A4.(16 points) In each of the following cases, determine whether an inverse function 1 1 f exists. If f does exist, find its domain and range; otherwise, give reasons for its non-existence. Be sure to include a thorough argument in support of your answer to each part. a.
f ( x) = 1 x 2

b.

f ( x ) = a 0 + a1 x , where a 0 and a1 are real constants

c.

f ( x ) = log 2 ( g ( x ) ) , where g is defined by this arrow diagram:

-2 0 1 2 4 0 2 8 16

d. f is an even function

NAME__________________________________________________________________ A5.(14 points) For a a positive constant not equal to 1, determine the domain of the function
g ( x) = 1

( log a x )

5 log a x

Express your answer in terms of a. Be sure to provide a careful explanation in support of your answer.

NAME__________________________________________________________________

B1.(14 points) Explain why the equation sin 1 x + cos 1 x =

holds for all values of

x for which the lefthand side makes sense. What are these values of x?

NAME__________________________________________________________________

B2.(18 points) For this problem consider the parametric equations x( t ) = cos (t ) , y ( t ) = sin ( t ) , where and are nonzero real constants. Which of the following statements are true, and which are false? For full credit on this problem, you must provide a thorough explanation for your answer in each part. a. For any positive number n, it is possible to select the constants and so that the graph of the parametric equations has exactly n x-intercepts.

b. For any positive number m, it is possible to select the constants and so that the graph of the parametric equations has exactly m y-intercepts.

c. For any positive numbers n and m, it is possible to select the constants and so that the graph of the parametric equations has exactly n x-intercepts and exactly m y-intercepts.
