If you are aiming to MVG, you may start from the last problem and going backward. Solving these problems are of the greatest importance for the grades VG-MVG Instructions Test period Tools The test 8:30-11:30 Wednesday 24 March 2010 Formula sheet, ruler and graphic calculator. For most items a single answer is not enough. It is also expected that you write down what you do that you explain/motivate your reasoning that you draw any necessary illustrations. After every item is given the maximum mark your solution can receive. [2/3] means that the item can give 2 g-points (Pass level) and 3 vg-points (Pass with distinction level). Items marked with give you a possibility to show MVG-quality (Pass with special distinction quality). This means that you use generalised methods, models and reasoning, that you analyse your results and account for a clear line of thought in a correct mathematical language. The last 4 problems are larger problems which may take up to 100 minutes to solve completely. It is important that you try to solve these problems. A description of what your teacher will consider when evaluating your work is attached to the problem. Try all of the problems. It can be relatively easy, even towards the end of the test, to receive some points for partial solutions. A positive evaluation can be given even for unfinished solutions. Mark limits The test gives totally at the most 54 points, out of which 27 vg-points and 3 MVG-pints. To pass the test you must have at least 18 points and to get the test character Pass with distinction (VG) you must have at least 36 points out of which at least 9 points on Pass with distinction level. Excellence (MVG) requires 40 points out of which at least 19 VG points and excellent quality presentation of the solutions .

8. Functions

[4/6/]

Draw a graph of a function. The derivative of the function assumes the value 2 where the graph cuts the y-axis. It is up to you to decide the appearance of the remainder of the graph. Draw the graph of two quadratic functions. Both the functions should have derivatives which assume the value 0 where the graphs cut the y-axis. It is up to you to decide the appearance of the remainder of the graph. Also give the equations of the functions. Determine the conditions which must be satisfied by the coefficients a, b and c in the quadratic function f (x ) = ax 2 + bx + c so that the graph of the function has a local maximum on the positive y-axis. Find two quadratic functions which have graphs with a local minimum at the point (1,0). Find a third degree function f ( x ) = ax 3 + bx 2 + cx + d which has a graph with a local maximum on the y-axis and a local minimum at the point (1,0). Determine the conditions which must be satisfied by the coefficients a,b,c and d in the third degree function f ( x ) = ax 3 + bx 2 + cx + d so that the graph of the function has a local maximum on the y-axis and a local minimum at the point (1,0).
