3. [10 points] Two numbers A and B are related by the equation A = log B. Adding 2 to A will
change B. I ask two Math 111 students how B will change. Here’s what they said:
• Student 1: 100 will be added to B since log 100 = 2.
• Student 2: 100 will be multiplied by B since log 100 = 2.
One of these students is full of baloney. Which one is wrong? Please explain why.

4. [15 points] Consider the integral 1 20 − x2 dx.
(a) Approximate the integral using a Riemann sum with n = 3 and the left endpoint of each
interval.
(b) Without computing the integral, tell me whether the approximation of part (a) is bigger
or smaller than the integral. Hint: Draw a picture.
5. [15 points] Consider the region bounded by the curves y = 1 + x1 , y = 2 and x = 3. If this
region is rotated about the x-axis, find the volume of the resulting 3-dimensional object.
6. [10 points] Find the equation of the line tangent to the curve y = sin(ex ) at the point where
the x-coordinate is ln( π4 ).
7. [20 points] Consider the region in the plane abounded by the curves y = ex , x = 1, and y = e3 .
(a) Draw a picture of the region.

the integral.
(c) Express the area using an integral with y as the independent variable. Do not evaluate
the integral.
(d) Evaluate one of the integrals from parts (b) and (c).

11. [10 points] We start with 10 grams of a radioactive substance. Five days later we have 8 grams.
What is the half-life of the substance?
12. [15 points] A bacteria colony grows exponentially, doubling in size every three days. Initially,
there were 1,000 bacteria.
(a) Give a formula for the number N of bacteria after t days. In your formula, please use the
exact value of the growth rate k.
(b) This problem was taken from a book where the answer in the back is given by the formula
N = 1000 2t/3 . Show how the answer you gave in part (a) can be simplified to this formula.
