Are you going to have to graph things on this test?
Yes
100
What is the period of the sine and cosine functions, and why?
The period is 2pi. After 2pi values begin to repeat as you begin another trip around the unit circle.
200
Find the domain.
f(x) = sqrt(x2-x-6)/(x-5)
(45)
x <= -2 , 3 <= x < 5 , 5 < x
200
Is this function one-to-one?
f(x) = x4+2
(9)
Yes, it is one-to-one.

What is x in simplest form?
4lnx = -8
(31)
e-2

Which of the following shifts f(x) c units to the left (c > 0)?
A. f(x)+c
B. f(x)-c
C. f(x+c)

Find f(g(x)) and g(f(x)) for f(x) = x2+1 and g(x) = sinx.
(5)

Find all the vertical asymptotes.
f(x) = (x2+1)/(x3+3x2+2x)
(21)
x = 0, x = -1, x = -2

Explain why this statement is true:
If the graph of f does not intersect the line y = 3, then f-1(x) is undefined at x = 3.
(25)
If the original function doesn't take the value of 3 for any x, then 3 is not in the domain of the inverse function. There would be nothing to map it back to.

Rewrite as a single logarithm in the simplest possible form:
ln(3/4) + 4ln2
(45)
ln(12)
