Problem 1 — Logic & Induction

Let A={1,2,3,5}A={1,2,3,5} and B={2,3,5,7}B={2,3,5,7}. Then A∩BA∩B equals:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. {1,2,3,5,7}{1,2,3,5,7}
  2. B. {2,3,5}{2,3,5}✓ correct
  3. C. {1,7}{1,7}
  4. D. ∅∅

A∩BA∩B contains the elements common to both sets: {2,3,5}{2,3,5}.

Problem 3 — Logs

Given x+y=8x+y=8 and log⁡2(x+y)−log⁡2(x−y)=2log2​(x+y)−log2​(x−y)=2, find 2x−2y2x−2y.

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 88
  2. B. 2424✓ correct
  3. C. 1616
  4. D. 3232
  5. E. 4040
  6. F. −24−24

∙∙ Apply the quotient rule:

log⁡2x+yx−y=2  ⇒  x+yx−y=4log2​x−yx+y​=2⇒x−yx+y​=4

∙∙ Substitute x+y=8x+y=8:

8x−y=4  ⇒  x−y=2x−y8​=4⇒x−y=2

∙∙ Solve the system:

x=5,y=3x=5,y=3

∙∙ Evaluate:

2x−2y=32−8=242x−2y=32−8=24

Problem 4 — Continuity

Find a∈Ra∈R so that f(x)={sin⁡(2x)x,x≠0a,x=0f(x)=⎩⎨⎧​xsin(2x)​,a,​x=0x=0​ is continuous at 00:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 00
  2. B. 11
  3. C. 22✓ correct
  4. D. 1221​

lim⁡x→0sin⁡2xx=2⋅lim⁡x→0sin⁡2x2x=2⋅1=2x→0lim​xsin2x​=2⋅x→0lim​2xsin2x​=2⋅1=2. So a=2a=2.

Problem 5 — Limits of Functions

The limit lim⁡x→∞2x2−3x+1x2+5x→∞lim​x2+52x2−3x+1​ equals:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 00
  2. B. 11
  3. C. 22✓ correct
  4. D. ∞∞

2−3/x+1/x21+5/x2→21=21+5/x22−3/x+1/x2​→12​=2.

Problem 6 — Logarithms

Rezolvați log⁡3x+log⁡3(x−6)=3log3​x+log3​(x−6)=3. Care este valoarea lui xx?

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. x=3x=3
  2. B. x=6x=6
  3. C. x=9x=9✓ correct
  4. D. x=12x=12

Combinăm: log⁡3(x(x−6))=3⇒x2−6x=27⇒x2−6x−27=0log3​(x(x−6))=3⇒x2−6x=27⇒x2−6x−27=0. Rădăcinile sunt x=9x=9 și x=−3x=−3. Domeniul cere x>6x>6, deci x=9x=9 (cealaltă este străină).

The general term Tk+1Tk+1​ in the expansion of (2x+3)n(2x+3)n is:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. (nk)2kxk3n−k(kn​)2kxk3n−k
  2. B. (nk)2n−kxn−k3k(kn​)2n−kxn−k3k
  3. C. (nk)(2x)n−k3k(kn​)(2x)n−k3k✓ correct
  4. D. (nk)2k3n−kxn−k(kn​)2k3n−kxn−k

With a=2xa=2x and b=3b=3: Tk+1=(nk)(2x)n−k3kTk+1​=(kn​)(2x)n−k3k.

  2. B. (0,π/2)(0,π/2)✓ correct
  3. C. (π,2π)(π,2π)
  4. D. nowherenowhere

g(0)=1>0g(0)=1>0, g(π/2)=0−π/2<0g(π/2)=0−π/2<0. Since gg is continuous, by the IVT there is c∈(0,π/2)c∈(0,π/2) with g(c)=0g(c)=0, i.e. cos⁡c=ccosc=c.
