Math Final Questions

The document contains a 25 question practice final exam for calculus that includes questions testing skills with functions, graphs, properties of functions, finding best fit functions from tables of values, simplifying expressions, and determining domains, ranges, and asymptotes. The exam has two sections, one that allows the use of a calculator and one that does not, testing both computational and conceptual skills in calculus.

Final Exam
Calculator Section

1.) A biologist is researching a newly-discovered species of bacteria. He starts with 100
bacteria into what he has determined to be a favorable growth medium. Six hours later, he
measures 450 bacteria. Assuming exponential growth, what is the growth rate for the
bacterial?
