B-track
NOVEMBER 26, 1996
This is an 80-minute test. Work all questions.
1. (20 points) Let f be a continuous function
defined on the closed interval [a,b]. Prove that |f|
is bounded, i.e. that there exists a number M such that
for all
.
2. (20 points).
The function
is monotonic increasing
on
. Find n so that a left-hand sum
with n equal subdivisions is within .01 of
.
3. (20 points) Prove that
is differentiable at x=0. What is the value of its derivative there?
4. (20 points) Prove that
is a convergent integral, i.e. that the integrals from 1 to c
tend to a finite limit L as
.
5. (20 points) Suppose f is continuously
differentiable, and that
for all x. If
f(1)=1, how large can f(2) possibly be?
