1. **Find the limit.**  
   Say why LH rule (L'Hospital's rule) applies to this case and then use that rule to find the limit:  
   \[
   \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin x - x}{(e^{2x}) - 1}
   \]

2. **Calculate the limit.**  
   \[
   \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\ln x}{\sqrt{x}}
   \]

3. **Find the intervals on which function \( f \) is concaving up or concaving down and find the inflection point(s).**  
   \[
   f(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 - 9x + 4
   \]

4. **Find the critical numbers of the function.**  
   \[
   f(x) = \frac{x^2 + 2}{2x - 1}
   \]

5. **Sketch the function (Must show the details)**  
   \[
   f(x) = 
   \begin{cases} 
   x^2 & \text{when } -1 \leq x \leq 0 \\
   2 - 2x & \text{when } 0 < x \leq 1
   \end{cases}
   \]

6. **If \( f(x) = \frac{x^2}{x+1} + \cos x \) find \( f'(1) \).**

7. **Find the equation of the tangent line at \( (\pi, 0) \). For \( y = \sin (\sin x) \).**

8. **Implicit Differentiation problem**  
   If \( y \cos (x) + x = 5 \), find \( y'' \) where \( x = 0 \). (**MUST use implicit differentiation approach for credit**)

9. **Suppose \( 4x^2 + y^2 = 25 \)**  
   (a) If \( dy/dt = 1/3 \). Find \( dx/dt \) when \( x = 2 \). (**Note:** \( x \) and \( y \) are length in meters)

   (b) If \( dx/dt = 3 \), find \( dy/dt \) when \( x =
