It includes 10 practice problems covering topics like finding the domain and range of functions, function composition, limits, derivatives, implicit differentiation, and applying the Intermediate Value Theorem. 2. The first 4 problems involve finding the domain and range of various functions, sketching their graphs, and determining continuity and differentiability. 3. Problems 5-6 cover evaluating limits of various functions, without using L'Hopital's rule. Problem 7 involves finding higher order derivatives of given functions in closed form. 4. Problems 8-10 deal with finding equations of tangents and normals to graphs, using
