1. Discuss the differentiability of f ( x) = x 3 in as much detail as you can.
2. In each case draw the graph of a continuous function that satisfies the given set of conditions:
a)
• f ' ( x) > 0 for x < −2
• f ' ( x) < 0 for − 2 < x < 2
• f ' ( x) = 0 for x > 2
b)
−π
• f ' ( x) > 0 for 2 < x < π2
−π π
• f ' ( x) < 0 for − π < x < 2 and 2 < x <π
−π
• f ' ( x) = 0 at x = 2 and x = π2

3. Prove or disprove: If f (x ) is an odd function then f ' ( x ) is even.

4. Discuss the differentiability of f ( x) = (1 + x) 1 + x in as much detail as you can
