Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number

Instructions The questions for Section II are printed in this booklet Do not break the seals on Part B until you are told to do so Write your solution to each part of each question in the space provided Write clearly and legibly Cross out any errors you make erased or crossed-out work will not be scored

Manage your time carefully During Part A work only on the questions in Part A You are permitted to use your calculator to solve an equation find the derivative of a function at a point or calculate the value of a definite integral However you must clearly indicate the setup of your question namely the equation function or integral you are using If you use other built-in features or programs you must show the mathematical steps necessary to produce your results During Part B you may continue to work on the questions in Part A without the use of a calculator

As you begin each part you may wish to look over the questions before starting to work on them It is not expected that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all questions Show all of your work even though a question may not explicitly remind you to do so Clearly label any functions graphs tables or other objects that you use Justifications require that you give mathematical reasons and that you verify the needed conditions under which relevant theorems properties definitions or tests are applied Your work will be scored on the correctness and completeness of your methods as well as your answers Answers without supporting work will usually not receive credit

Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical notation rather than calculator

syntax For example 5 x2 dx may not be written as

1 fnInt(X2 X 1 5)

Unless otherwise specified answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified If you use decimal approximations in calculations your work will be scored on accuracy Unless otherwise specified your final answers should be accurate to three places after the decimal point

Unless otherwise specified the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which fx is a real number
