This homework assignment is designed to go along with sections 3.5 through
3.8 of your textbook, which we have completed in class. Make sure your work
is neat, legible, well-organized and self-explanatory. You must staple your
assignment to receive full credit.
Name:
1. (10 points) Use information from the first and second derivative, as well as information
about x and y intercepts, end behavior, etc (from MATH-1050) to graph the function
2
. Label any local extrema, singular points, and points of inflection.
g(x) = x +5x−6
x−6
2. (10 points) Use the Bisection method to approximate the real solution to x − 2 +
2 cos(x) = 0 which falls between x = 1 and x = 2.
3. (10 points) Decide whether the Mean Value Theorem applies to the function f (x) = x+ x1
on the interval [−1, 21 ]. If it does, find all possible values of c. If not, state the reason.

4. (10 points) Decide whether the Mean Value Theorem applies to the function g(x) = x 3
on the interval [−1, 1]. If it does, find all possible values of c. If not, state the reason.
