1What is the domain of the real function f(x) = sqrt((3x - 6)/(x + 1))?
A.(-inf, -1) U [2, +inf)
B.(-1, 2]
C.[-1, 2]
D.(-inf, -1] U [2, +inf)
Explanation: For the square root to be defined in R, the radicand must be non-negative: (3x - 6)/(x + 1) >= 0. The zeros of the numerator and denominator are x = 2 and x = -1, respectively. Testing intervals shows that the quotient is positive on (-inf, -1) and [2, +inf). The point x = -1 must be strictly excluded because division by zero is undefined.
2Given the bijective function f(x) = (2x + 5)/(x - 3) for x != 3, what is its inverse function f^(-1)(x)?
A.f^(-1)(x) = (x - 3)/(2x + 5)
B.f^(-1)(x) = (3x + 5)/(x - 2)
C.f^(-1)(x) = (3x - 5)/(x + 2)
D.f^(-1)(x) = (2x - 5)/(x + 3)
Explanation: Set y = (2x + 5)/(x - 3). Multiply both sides by (x - 3) to get y(x - 3) = 2x + 5 => yx - 3y = 2x + 5. Rearrange terms containing x: yx - 2x = 3y + 5 => x(y - 2) = 3y + 5. Solve for x: x = (3y + 5)/(y - 2). Replacing y with x gives f^(-1)(x) = (3x + 5)/(x - 2).
3Given the functions f(x) = sqrt(x - 4) and g(x) = x^2 - 5, what is the composite function (f o g)(x) and its natural domain in R?
A.(f o g)(x) = sqrt(x^2 - 9) with domain (-inf, -3] U [3, +inf)
B.(f o g)(x) = x - 3 with domain [3, +inf)
C.(f o g)(x) = sqrt(x^2 - 9) with domain [-3, 3]
D.(f o g)(x) = x^2 - 9 with domain R
Explanation: The composite function is (f o g)(x) = f(g(x)) = sqrt((x^2 - 5) - 4) = sqrt(x^2 - 9). The domain requires the radicand to be non-negative: x^2 - 9 >= 0 => (x - 3)(x + 3) >= 0, which yields x in (-inf, -3] U [3, +inf).
4Which of the following real functions is an odd function (função ímpar)?
A.f(x) = x^2 + cos(x)
B.f(x) = x^3 / (x^2 + 1)
C.f(x) = |x| - 3x^2
D.f(x) = e^x - e^(-x) + 2
Explanation: A function is odd if f(-x) = -f(x) for all x in its domain. Evaluating f(-x) = (-x)^3 / ((-x)^2 + 1) = -x^3 / (x^2 + 1) = -f(x). Thus, f(x) = x^3 / (x^2 + 1) is odd.
5Solve the logarithmic equation ln(x + 2) + ln(x - 1) = ln(10) in the set of real numbers.
A.x = -4 and x = 3
B.x = 3
C.x = 4
D.x = ln(10)
Explanation: The existence domain requires x + 2 > 0 and x - 1 > 0, which means x > 1. Using logarithm properties: ln((x + 2)(x - 1)) = ln(10) => (x + 2)(x - 1) = 10 => x^2 + x - 2 = 10 => x^2 + x - 12 = 0. Factoring gives (x + 4)(x - 3) = 0, so x = -4 or x = 3. Since x > 1, only x = 3 is a valid solution.
6What is the range (contradomínio / conjunto de chegada) of the real function f(x) = 4 - 3e^(-2x)?
A.(-inf, 4)
B.(4, +inf)
C.[1, 4]
D.(-inf, +inf)
Explanation: For any real x, the exponential e^(-2x) is strictly positive, so 3e^(-2x) in (0, +inf). Multiplying by -1 gives -3e^(-2x) in (-inf, 0). Adding 4 shifts the interval to (-inf, 4). Therefore, the range is D'_f = (-inf, 4).
7Determine the value of the constant k such that the piecewise function f(x) is continuous at x = 1, where f(x) = 2x + k for x <= 1 and f(x) = x^2 - 3x + 6 for x > 1.
A.k = 1
B.k = 2
C.k = 4
D.k = -2
Explanation: For f(x) to be continuous at x = 1, we must have lim_{x -> 1^-} f(x) = lim_{x -> 1^+} f(x) = f(1). Left limit and value: f(1) = 2(1) + k = 2 + k. Right limit: lim_{x -> 1^+} (x^2 - 3x + 6) = 1^2 - 3(1) + 6 = 4. Equating both sides gives 2 + k = 4 => k = 2.
8The graph of y = f(x) has a local maximum at the point P(-2, 5). What are the coordinates of the corresponding local maximum on the graph of g(x) = 3f(x - 4) + 2?
A.(2, 17)
B.(-6, 17)
C.(2, 15)
D.(-6, 7)
Explanation: The transformation f(x - 4) shifts the graph horizontally to the right by 4 units: x = -2 + 4 = 2. The vertical scaling by 3 and shift by +2 transforms the y-coordinate: y = 3(5) + 2 = 17. Thus, the new maximum is at (2, 17).
9Solve the inequality log_2(x^2 - 3x) <= 2 in the set of real numbers.
A.[-1, 4]
B.[-1, 0) U (3, 4]
C.(0, 3)
D.(-inf, -1] U [4, +inf)
Explanation: First, the domain requires x^2 - 3x > 0 => x(x - 3) > 0 => x in (-inf, 0) U (3, +inf). Next, applying the base-2 exponential (since 2 > 1, the inequality direction is preserved): x^2 - 3x <= 2^2 = 4 => x^2 - 3x - 4 <= 0 => (x - 4)(x + 1) <= 0 => x in [-1, 4]. Intersecting with the domain yields [-1, 0) U (3, 4].
10The polynomial P(x) = x^3 - 4x^2 + ax + b leaves a remainder of 2 when divided by (x - 1) and a remainder of -12 when divided by (x + 1). Find the values of a and b.
A.a = 6 and b = -1
B.a = 5 and b = 0
C.a = -6 and b = 1
D.a = 4 and b = -2
Explanation: By the Remainder Theorem, P(1) = 2 and P(-1) = -12. From P(1) = 1^3 - 4(1^2) + a(1) + b = 2 => -3 + a + b = 2 => a + b = 5. From P(-1) = (-1)^3 - 4((-1)^2) + a(-1) + b = -12 => -5 - a + b = -12 => -a + b = -7. Adding the two linear equations: 2b = -2 => b = -1. Substituting b into a + b = 5 yields a = 6.
