??????? ?

(a)

(i) Lim  5x −3 − 4/ 2x −2 + 9

 x→∞ 

(ii) Lim      (x − 3) 2/x2/2  − 2x − 3

     x→∞   

                  

 

During a nationwide program to immunize the population against a new strain of the flu, public health officials determined that the cost of inoculating x% of the susceptible population would be approximately C(x) = 1.85x/100 - x million dollars.

(i) What would it cost to providing immunization to the first 20% of the susceptible population?

(ii) What would it cost to providing immunization to the next 30% of the susceptible population?

(iii) Suppose 17 million dollars are available for providing immunization. What percentage of the susceptible population will not receive immunization?

(iv) If money was not a problem will they be able to providing immunization to the entire susceptible population?

(c) Determine the values of x for which the function

f(x) = {2x2 – 4       x < 2

          {x + 2          2 < x > 5

           {7                x ≥ 5

is discontinuous.
