d)         e)           f)                g)    

2. Find  for       Also find if a=-1.

3. Find f'(x) for f(x) =

a)           b)    given that     c)      d)  

4.    Find the equation of the tangent line at the point (0, 2) for .

5. Find all values of A so that  solves .

4.2 Inverse functions

6.   a) Show that   is one to one.    b) Show that  if c is nonzero, and hence is one to one.

7.  Find the domain and range and any horizontal and vertical asymptotes for f and its inverse if

a)            b)  

8. Given that is one to one on [0, ∞], and g(x) is the inverse function to f, find

g'(3+2e)  and g'(2).

9.  Given that f and g are inverse functions and the tangent line to f at (1, -4) is y=3x-7, find the tangent line to g at (-4, 1).
