1. A. According to the expression a_n=4*a_n-1, each term after a1 is four times the previous term. The first term is -7 as given, 2nd term should be -7*4=-28, 3rd term is -28*4=-112, ... A is the correct answer. 

2. B. The sequence is -13, -8, -3, 2... It's obvious that each term is equal to the previous term plus 5. This is an arithmetic sequence with initial term -13 and common difference 5. We know a1=-13, so a_n=-13+5*(n-1). The answer is B.

3. A. We are given a15=-53, a16=-5. The common difference of the arithmetic sequence is -5-(-53)=48. The formula for a_n term is a1+48*(n-1). We know that a15=-13; plug in n=15, a15=-53=a1+48*(15-1), a1=-725. So a_n=-725+48*(n-1).

4. Diverge. We are given a few terms, 11, 44, 176, 704... Observe that each term is four times the previous one. 11*4=44, 44*4=176, 176*4=704... This is a geometric series with common ratio>1. You can keep multiplying by 4 and the series goes to infinity, so it diverges.

5. D. We have -4, -16, -64, -256... Same as above, each term is four times the previous one. The initial term is a1=-4. The common ratio d=4. So a_n=a1*d^(n-1)=-4*4^(n-1)=-4^n. (D).

6. The answer is A. a2=-2, a5=16. Suppose the common ratio is D. a_n=a1*d^(n-1). a2=a1*d; a5=a1*d^4. Plug in a2 and a5: -2=a1*d, 16=a1*d^4. 16/-2=d^3=-8, d=-2, a1=1. So a_n=1*(-2)^(n-1).

7. B. We are given the sequence 4, -24, 144,... Each term is -6 times the previous one. The first term a0=4, the n^th term a_(n-1) is a1*d^n=4*(-6)^n. To express the sum, we simply have to use the sigma notation and sum 4*(-6)^n from n=0 to infinity. The answer is B.

8. D. We are given -3 + 6 + 15 + 24... 132. Each term is equal to the previous one plus 9. First term a0=-3, n^th term a_n-1 is -3+9*n. The last term is 132. 132 =-3+9n, n=15. So we have to sum -3+9n from n=0 to n=15.

9. B. 343 + 512 + 729 + 1000+...  343=7^3, 512=8^3, 729=9^3, 1000=10^3. This is a sequence of perfect cubes. Therefore, the sum is n^3 from n=7 to infinity. (The initial term is 343=7^3).

10. B. We are given 3, 5, 7, 9, ... 21. The common difference is 2. There are (21-3)/2+1=10  terms. The initial term a1=3, and last term is a10=21. The sum is (a1+a10)*10/2=(3+21)*10/2=120.

11. C. 4/3, 16/3, 64/3, 256/3, 1024/3.  Each term is four times the previous one. This is a geometric series with initial term a1=4/3 and common ratio r=4. 1024/3 is the 5th term of the sequence. So sum=a1*(1-r^n)/(1-r)=4/3*(1-4^5)/(1-4)=-4/9*-1023=1364/3.

12. B. 10,12,14,... This is an arithmetic sequence. a1=10, and common difference d=2. There are 20 terms (20 rows). a20=a1+d*(n-1)=10+2*(20-1)=48. So the sum S=(a1+an)*n/2=(10+48)*20/2=580.

13. 10 + 20 + 30 + ... + 10n = 5n(n + 1). When n=1, this expression is true, since 10=5*1*(1+1). Suppose when n=k, this statement is true, then when n=k+1, the left side is 10+...+10n+10(n+1), the right side is 5(n+1)(n+2). The left side adds 10(n+1) compared to the previous one. The right side adds 5(n+1)(n+2)-5n(n+1)=5(n+1)(n+2-n)=10(n+1). So the statement holds true.

14. The height at week 0 is a0=300 (initial height). Common difference is 4.2 (weekly increment). a_n=300+4.2n. At week n, the height of the tree is 300+4.2*n centimeters.

3. A. We are given a15=-53, a16=-5. The common difference of the arithmetic sequence is -5-(-53)=48. The formula for a_n term is a1+48*(n-1). We know that a15=-13; plug in n=15, a15=-53=a1+48*(15-1), a1=-725. So a_n=-725+48*(n-1).

4. Diverge. We are given a few terms, 11, 44, 176, 704... Observe that each term is four times the previous one. 11*4=44, 44*4=176, 176*4=704... This is a geometric series with common ratio>1. You can keep multiplying by 4 and the series goes to infinity, so it diverges.

5. D. We have -4, -16, -64, -256... Same as above, each term is four times the previous one. The initial term is a1=-4. The common ratio d=4. So a_n=a1*d^(n-1)=-4*4^(n-1)=-4^n. (D).

6. The answer is A. a2=-2, a5=16. Suppose the common ratio is D. a_n=a1*d^(n-1). a2=a1*d; a5=a1*d^4. Plug in a2 and a5: -2=a1*d, 16=a1*d^4. 16/-2=d^3=-8, d=-2, a1=1. So a_n=1*(-2)^(n-1).

7. B. We are given the sequence 4, -24, 144,... Each term is -6 times the previous one. The first term a0=4, the n^th term a_(n-1) is a1*d^n=4*(-6)^n. To express the sum, we simply have to use the sigma notation and sum 4*(-6)^n from n=0 to infinity. The answer is B.

8. D. We are given -3 + 6 + 15 + 24... 132. Each term is equal to the previous one plus 9. First term a0=-3, n^th term a_n-1 is -3+9*n. The last term is 132. 132 =-3+9n, n=15. So we have to sum -3+9n from n=0 to n=15.

9. B. 343 + 512 + 729 + 1000+...  343=7^3, 512=8^3, 729=9^3, 1000=10^3. This is a sequence of perfect cubes. Therefore, the sum is n^3 from n=7 to infinity. (The initial term is 343=7^3).

10. B. We are given 3, 5, 7, 9, ... 21. The common difference is 2. There are (21-3)/2+1=10  terms. The initial term a1=3, and last term is a10=21. The sum is (a1+a10)*10/2=(3+21)*10/2=120.

11. C. 4/3, 16/3, 64/3, 256/3, 1024/3.  Each term is four times the previous one. This is a geometric series with initial term a1=4/3 and common ratio r=4. 1024/3 is the 5th term of the sequence. So sum=a1*(1-r^n)/(1-r)=4/3*(1-4^5)/(1-4)=-4/9*-1023=1364/3.

12. B. 10,12,14,... This is an arithmetic sequence. a1=10, and common difference d=2. There are 20 terms (20 rows). a20=a1+d*(n-1)=10+2*(20-1)=48. So the sum S=(a1+an)*n/2=(10+48)*20/2=580.

13. 10 + 20 + 30 + ... + 10n = 5n(n + 1). When n=1, this expression is true, since 10=5*1*(1+1). Suppose when n=k, this statement is true, then when n=k+1, the left side is 10+...+10n+10(n+1), the right side is 5(n+1)(n+2). The left side adds 10(n+1) compared to the previous one. The right side adds 5(n+1)(n+2)-5n(n+1)=5(n+1)(n+2-n)=10(n+1). So the statement holds true.

14. The height at week 0 is a0=300 (initial height). Common difference is 4.2 (weekly increment). a_n=300+4.2n. At week n, the height of the tree is 300+4.2*n centimeters.

Question 1

To find the width of the rectangle, we divide the area by the length
2x^{3}-29x+12÷x+4
We use the method of long division to get the answer. The method is shown in the first diagram below

 2x^{2}-8x+3

Question 2:
\frac{x}{6x-x^{2} } = \frac{x}{x(6-x)} = \frac{1}{6-x}

Question 3:
\frac{-12 x^{4} }{x^{4}+8 x^{5} }= \frac{-12 x^{4} }{ x^{4}(1+8x)}= \frac{-12}{1+8x}

Question 4: 
\frac{x+5}{x^{2}+6x+5}= \frac{x+5}{(x+1)(x+5)}= \frac{1}{x+1}

Question 5:
\frac{x^{2}-3x-18} {x+3}= \frac{(x-6)(x+3)}{x+3}= \frac{x-6}{1}=x-6

Question 6:
\frac{2}{3a}×\frac{2}{a^{2}}=\frac{4}{3a^{3} } where a \neq 0

Question 7: (Question is not written well)
\frac{x-5}{4x+8}×(12x^{2}+32x+8)
\frac{12 x^{3}-28 x^{2} -152x-40 }{4x+8}
By performing long division we get an answer 3 x^{2} -x-36 with remainder of 248

Question 8:
( \frac{x^{2}-16} {x-1})÷(x+4)
( \frac{ x^{2}-16 }{x-1})×\frac{1}{x+4}
\frac{(x+4)(x-1)}{x-1}×\frac{1}{x+4}
Cancelling out x+4 we obtain \frac{x+1}{x-1}

Question 9:
\frac{x^{2}+2x+1} {x-2}÷\frac{x^{2-1} }{x^{2}-4 }
\frac{ x^{2}+2x+1 }{x-2}×\frac{x^{2}-4 }{x^{2}-1}
Factorise all the quadratic expression gives
\frac{(x+1)(x+1)}{x-2}×\frac{(x-2)(x+2)}{(x+1)(x-1)}
Cancelling out (x+1) and (x-2) gives a simplest form
\frac{(x+1)(x+2)}{x-1}

Question 10:

\frac{24 w^{10}+8w^{12}  }{4 x^{4} }= \frac{24w^{10} }{4 x^{4} } + \frac{8 w^{12} }{4 x^{4} }
Cancelling out the constants of each fraction
\frac{6w^{10} }{x^{4} }+ \frac{2w^{12} }{x^{4}}= \frac{6w^{10}+2w^{12}  }{ x^{4}}

Question 11:

\frac{-6m^{9}-6m^{8}-16m^{6}   }{2m^{3} } = \frac{-2m^{6}(3m^{3}-3m^{2}-8)}{2m^{3} }
Cancelling 2m^{3} gives us the simplified form
-m^{3}(3m^{3}-3m^{2}-8) = -3m^{6}+3m^{5}+8m^{3}

Question 12:

\frac{-4x}{x+7} - \frac{8}{x-7} = \frac{-4x(x-7)-8(x+7)}{(x+7)(x-7)}
\frac{-4 x^{2} +28x-8x-56}{(x+7)(X-7)}= \frac{-4 x^{2} +20x-56}{(x+7)(x-7)}
Factorising the numerator expression
\frac{(-4x+28)(x-2)}{(x+7)(x-7)} = \frac{-4(x-7)(x-2)}{(x+7)(x-7)}
Cancelling out x-7 gives the simplified form
\frac{-4x+8}{x-7}

Question 13:

\frac{3}{x-3} - \frac{5}{x-2}= \frac{x3(x-2)-5(x-2)}{y(x-3)(x-2)}
\frac{3x-6-5x+15}{(x-3)(x-2)}= \frac{-2x+9}{(x-3)(x-2)}

Question 14:

\frac{9}{x-1}- \frac{5}{x+4}= \frac{9(x+4)-5(x-1)}{(x-1)(x+4)}\frac{9x+36-5x+5}{(x-1)(x+4)}= \frac{4x+41}{(x-1)(x+4)}

Question 15:

\frac{-3}{x+2}- \frac{(-5)}{x+3}= \frac{-3(x+3)-(-5)(x+2)}{(x+2)(x+3)}
\frac{-3x-9+5x+10}{(x+2)(x+3)}= \frac{2x+1}{(x+2)(x+3)}

Question 16:

\frac{4}{x}+ \frac{5}{x}=-3
\frac{9}{x}=-3
x=-3

Question 17:

\frac{1}{3x-6}- \frac{5}{x-2}=12
\frac{(x-2)-5(3x-6)}{(3x-6)(x-2)} =  \frac{x-2-15x+30}{(3x-6)(x-2)}= \frac{-14x+28}{(3x-6)(x-2)}

ANSWER TO QUESTION 1

The given function is f(x)=-10x^2+4x. We want to find the derivative of this function at x=11.

The derivative of this function is given by,

f'(x)=-20x+4


We now have to substitute  x=11 in to  f'(x)=-20x+4 to obtain,

f'(11)=-20(11)+4

This implies that,

f'(11)=-220+4


f'(11)=-216


Ans: A


ANSWER TO Q2.

The given limit is \lim_{x \to 4}^{ x^2+3x-1}.


The function whose limit we are finding is a polynomial function. Since polynomial function are continuous everywhere, the limiting value is always equal to the functional value.

Thus, \lim_{x \to 4}^{ x^2+3x-1}=f(4)


This implies that,

Thus, \lim_{x \to 4}^{ x^2+3x-1}=(4)^2+3(4)-1.


\lim_{x \to 4}^{ x^2+3x-1}=16+12-1


\lim_{x \to 4}^{ x^2+3x-1}=27


Ans: A.


ANSWER TO Q3


The given function is f(x)=7x+9.


We want to find the derivative of this function at x=6.


We must first of all differentiate this function to obtain,

f'(x)=7

We can see that the derived function is constant, therefore value of x will still give us 7.

This implies that,

f'(6)=7


Ans: A


ANSWER TO Q4.

See attachment


ANSWER TO Q5.

The given function is f(x)=\frac{3}{x}.


To find the derivative of this function at,

x=1, we must first differentiate this function.

But let us rewrite the rational function as a power function so that it will be easier to differentiate using the power rule of differentiation.


That is,

f(x)=3x^{-1}.


We differentiate now to obtain,

f'(x)=-1(3x^{-1-1})


This implies that,

f'(x)=-3x^{-2}


f'(x)=\frac{-3}{x^2}


At x=1


f'(1)=\frac{-3}{(1)^2}


f'(1)=-3

Ans: A


ANSWER TO Q6

The graph that has been described in the question is shown in the diagram above,

We can see from the graph that as we approach x=2, from the left, the y-values are approaching 4.

That is,

\lim_{x \to 2^{-}} f(x)=4

Also as we approach x=2 from the right, the y-values are approaching -3.

That is,

\lim_{x \to 2^{+}} f(x)=-3.


Ans: D.


ANSWER TO Q7

The given piece-wise function is

\lim_{x \to -1}  \left \{ {{x+1,if\:x\:


Since x=-1 \in x\geq -1

We evaluate the limit at x=-1 of f(x)=1-x.


Since this is a polynomial function, \lim_{x \to -1}f(x)= 1-x=f(-1)


This implies that,

\lim_{x \to -1} f(x)=1-x=1--1


\lim_{x \to -1} f(x)=1-x=1--1

\lim_{x \to -1} f(x)=1-x=1+1


\lim_{x \to -1} f(x)=1-x=2


Ans: B.


ANSWER TO Q8

The given function is f(x)=\frac{1}{x-7}.

This is a rational function that is defined for all real values except,x-7=0

Therefore the vertical asymptote is x=7


We can see from the graph above that, as x approaches seven from the left, the function approaches negative infinity

That is \lim_{x \to 7^{-}}  \frac{1}{x-7} =- \infty.


Ans: A.


ANSWER TO Q9

The graph of the given piece-wise function is show as follows;

We can see from the graph that, as the x-values are approaching 3 from the left y-values are approaching 1.5.


Note the limit is not the same as the functional value in this case. Also limit in this case is the y-value we are approaching as we get closer and closer to 3, not necessarily at 3.

See graph

Ans: B


ANSWER TO Q10


The given function is f(x)=\frac{x^3+1}{x^5}


We want to find the limiting value of this function as the x-values approaches zero.


Thus,

\lim_{x \to 0} f(x)=\frac{x^3+1}{x^5}


Since the function is not defined at x=0.

We evaluate the one-sided limits as follows,

\lim_{x \to 0^-} f(x)=\frac{x^3+1}{x^5}=- \infty


\lim_{x \to 0^+} f(x)=\frac{x^3+1}{x^5}=+ \infty


Since the right hand limit is not equal to the left hand limit,


\lim_{x \to 0} f(x)=\frac{x^3+1}{x^5} Does Not Exist.


ANS: C


ANSWER TO Q11

The given function is

f(x)=-\frac{3}{x}


To find the derivative of this function at,

x=-4, we must first differentiate this function.

But let us rewrite the rational function as a power function so that it will be easier to differentiate using the power rule of differentiation.


That is,

f(x)=-3x^{-1}.


We differentiate now to obtain,

f'(x)=-1(-3x^{-1-1})


This implies that,

f'(x)=3x^{-2}


f'(x)=\frac{3}{x^2}


At x=-4


f'(1)=\frac{3}{(-4)^2}


f'(1)=\frac{3}{(16)}

Ans: B



ANSWER TO Q12


We want to find the limit of the function f(x)=x^2-2 as x approaches zero.

\lim_{x \to 0} x^2-2


This is a polynomial function, therefore

\lim_{x \to 0} x^2-2=f(0)=0^2-2=-2


Ans: B
