CH 2 Form E

The document is a practice test for AP Calculus AB consisting of 6 multiple choice questions. Question 1 asks about the value of k that makes a piecewise function continuous. Question 2 asks to graph a function meeting certain limits and value conditions. Question 3 involves finding properties of the height function of an object as it falls, including its initial height, time to reach the ground, and average speed. Question 4 asks to evaluate two limits without a calculator. Question 5 asks for the equation of a normal line to a given function. Question 6 asks if it's possible for a cube of a number to equal 10 less than twice that number, requiring an explanation using calculus concepts.
