Blue Book. Start each new problem at the top of a page (either front or back). Only work written in the Blue Book will be graded. Show all your work to receive full credit. Answers without work and ambiguous answers will receive no credit. No calculators of any kind may be used on this test. Use techniques learned so far in this class to complete all problems.

2. (4 pts) Sketch the graph of a function which is not dierentiable at some point. Indicate at which point the function is not dierentiable. 3. Dierentiate the following (with respect to x). 5 (a) (7 pts) y = 2 + 1 + x3 x (b) (10 pts) y = tan3 (2x) + e5x
2 +4

(c) (12 pts) y = 3x (tan1 (3x2 )) (d) (12 pts) y = (sec(x))2x+1

4. A mass traveling straight through a region of space has its position x described as a function of time t by x(t) = 3 cos(t)+2 sin(t), where t is in seconds and x is measured in centimeters. (a) (9 pts) Give the velocity of the mass at time t. (b) (2 pts) Give the instantaneous velocity of the mass at time t = 3/2 seconds. (Include units)

5. (15 pts) Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve (x2 + y 2 )2 = xy + y at the point dy (0,1). (Use implicit dierentiation to nd dx .) 6.
