2. A 12,000-liter tank of water is filled to capacity. At time t = 0, water begins to drain out of the tank at a rate modeled by r (t ) , measured in liters per hour, where r is given by the piecewise-defined function
(a) Is r continuous at t = 5 ? Show the work that leads to your answer. (b) Find the average rate at which water is draining from the tank between time t = 0 and time t = 8 hours. (c) Find r(3) . Using correct units, explain the meaning of that value in the context of this problem. (d) Write, but do not solve, an equation involving an integral to find the time A when the amount of water in the tank is 9000 liters.
3. The functions f and g are given by f ( x ) = x and g( x ) = 6 - x. Let R be the region bounded by the x-axis and the graphs of f and g, as shown in the figure above. (a) Find the area of R. (b) The region R is the base of a solid. For each y, where 0 y 2, the cross section of the solid taken perpendicular to the y-axis is a rectangle whose base lies in R and whose height is 2y. Write, but do not evaluate, an integral expression that gives the volume of the solid. (c) There is a point P on the graph of f at which the line tangent to the graph of f is perpendicular to the graph of g. Find the coordinates of point P.
4. Consider a differentiable function f having domain all positive real numbers, and for which it is known that f ( x ) = (4 - x ) x -3 for x > 0. (a) Find the x-coordinate of the critical point of f. Determine whether the point is a relative maximum, a relative minimum, or neither for the function f. Justify your answer. (b) Find all intervals on which the graph of f is concave down. Justify your answer. (c) Given that f (1) = 2, determine the function f.

5. Ben rides a unicycle back and forth along a straight east-west track. The twice-differentiable function B models Bens position on the track, measured in meters from the western end of the track, at time t, measured in seconds from the start of the ride. The table above gives values for B(t ) and Bens velocity, v(t ) , measured in meters per second, at selected times t. (a) Use the data in the table to approximate Bens acceleration at time t = 5 seconds. Indicate units of measure. (b) Using correct units, interpret the meaning of

v(t ) dt using a left Riemann sum with the subintervals indicated by the data in the table.
(c) For 40 t 60, must there be a time t when Bens velocity is 2 meters per second? Justify your answer. (d) A light is directly above the western end of the track. Ben rides so that at time t, the distance L (t ) between Ben and the light satisfies ( L (t )) = 122 + ( B(t )) . At what rate is the distance between Ben and the light changing at time t = 40 ?
