Fall Semester 2006
Instructions. Read each problem carefully and follow all of its instructions. For each of the prob-
lems below, write a clear and concise solution in your blue book. For any short answer questions,
write clearly your answer and any additional explanation that is needed.
1. (5 points) Consider the function f(x)graphed below.

which number corresponds to which approximation and explain how you know this. You
must provide an explanation to receive full-credit.
