Calculus I :: Lab 02

Directions

Go to https://student.desmos.com/ and enter the code given in class. Your work saves automatically. Complete the following (there are corresponding slides for each problem):

Problem 0

Enter in your name, I need to know who to give the grades to.

Problem 1

Let \(\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{4|x-1|}{x-1}\).

  1. Graph \(f(x)\).
  2. Find all discontinuities of \(f\).
  3. Classify each discontinuity as one of "removable", "jump", "infinite", or "other". You should justify your answer using tables to show limit values.

Problem 2

Repeat Problem 1 with \(\displaystyle g(x) = \frac{x^2+x-6}{x^2-4}\).

Problem 3

Repeat Problem 1 with \(\displaystyle h(x) = \frac{\sqrt{x} -2}{x-4}\).

Problem 4

Repeat Problem 1 with \(\displaystyle i(x) = \frac{e^x}{\cos x}\) where \(i\) has domain \([0,2\pi]\).

Problem 5

Repeat Problem 1 with

\begin{equation*} j(x) = \begin{cases} x & x \leq 1 \\ x^2 & 1 < x \leq 3 \\ \sqrt{x} & 3 < x. \end{cases} \end{equation*}

Problem 6

Let

\begin{equation*} k(x) = \begin{cases} x + 4 & x \leq 0 \\ (c-x)^2 & 0 < x \end{cases}. \end{equation*}

Find the value of \(c\) which makes \(k\) continuous everywhere, and graph this continuous function.
