Let f(x) = |x + 2|− 2|x| + |x − 3|.(a) Evaluate f (−5), f(12), and f(3).(b) Sketch the graph of f (x).(c) Let g(x) =1xand h(x) =√x − 3. Find the natural domains ofg ◦ f and h ◦ f . (Hint: refer to your graph!)12. Sketch the graph off(x) =x2− 1|x| − 1.Where is f continuous? Are there any removable discontinuities? (Re-call: a point is a removable discontinuity if the function f becomescontinuous after we change its value at that point.)23. Let f(x) =3−xx2−2x−8. Evaluate the following limits.(a) limx→∞f(x). (b) limx→−∞f(x). (c) limx→1+f(x).(d) limx→1−f(x). (e) limx→4+f(x). (f) limx→4−f(x).34. Compute the derivative of f(x) =x3−1x2+x.45. Compute f0(x) and f00(x) when f(x) = sin2(x4+ 1).56. Find all lines tangent to the graph of y = x2which pass through thepoint (1, −3).67. Suppose g(1) = 4, g0(1) = 3, and g00(1) = −2. Suppose also thatf(4) = 6, f0(4) = −1, and f00(4) = 5. What are the values of the firstand second derivatives of (f ◦ g)(x) at x = 1?78.
