The number in brackets after each explanation indicates the appropriate section in the Review of Major Topics (Part 2). If a problem can be solved using algebraic techniques alone, [algebra] appears after the explanation, and no reference is given for that problem in the Self-Evaluation Chart at the end of the test. An asterisk appears next to those solutions in which a graphing calculator is necessary. loy 1. (B) Divide both sides by Sy — 3 to have the k-term on its own, 5Y 2Sy-3) = 3k, Factor out 2 from the numerator and then divide common terms, > = 2 = 3k. Divide both sides by 3 to 2 get k= . [algebra] 2. (E) Since |x - y| and ly — x] both represent the distance between x and y, they must be equal, and they are equal for any values of x and y. [1.6] 3. (D) Adding the equations gives 3x = 15. x = 5 andy = 3. a—b=2. [1.2] 4, (A) h(S) = 1. g (1) = 3. Interchange x and y to find that f-1(x) = x + 1, and so f“"(3) = 4.

Observe that the graph crosses the x-axis twice—once at a positive x value and once at a negative one. Since the function is a degree 4 polynomial, there are 4 roots, so the other two must be complex conjugates. [1.2] 8.

(B) Let y = f(x) = —4, To get the inverse, interchange x andy and solve for y. x =y3 — 4. y = Vx+4. [1.1] 13. (C) Use the definition of an odd function. If f(a) = b, then f(-a) =—b. Only IIT is true. [1.1] 14. (C) Tangent is an odd function, so tan(—¢) = —tane, and cosine is an even function, so cos(-8) = cose . Therefore, the sum in the problem is 2cose. [1.3] 2n om 15. (E) Period = & 2. k= 4.

If the circle is tangent to the line, then the distance between (1,3) and the line y= 5is the radius of the circle, r. Therefore, r= 2. [2.1] 0.2.

Enter prod \ 32) °) // to approximate the product of the first 50 terms as 2.08. Evaluating the product of 75 terms yields the same approximation to 9 decimals, so choose C. An alternative solution is to recognize that the desired product is equal to 313*"/6*1/12+-.. so the 1 haired exponent is the sum of an infinite geometric series with '~3 2. Using the formula for the 133 sum of such a series yields 1— so the desired product is 3°” ~ 2.1. [3.4] 47. * (B) Temperature increases by 3.4°F for each additional chirp. Therefore, 5 additional chirps indicate an increase of 5(3.4) = 17.0°F.

This leads to the length of the major axis: 2,/36 = 12. Therefore, the radius of the circle is 6, and the area = 36n ~ 113. [2.1] 49. (C) Since the velocity of a 45-mile-per-hour wind is 3 times that of a 15-mile-per-hour wind and the force on the sail is proportional to the square of the wind velocity, the force on the sail of a 45-mile-per-hour wind is 9 times that of a 15-mile-per-hour wind: 9 - 45 = 405.
