Question 1of 20

The function \(f(x) = |x|\) is:

Question 2of 20

The derivative of \(\sin(2x)\) with respect to \(x\) is:

Question 3of 20

If \(y = e^{3x}\), then \(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\) equals:

Question 4of 20

If \(y = \sin^{-1}\left(2x\sqrt{1-x^{2}}\right)\), then \(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\) equals (for \(|x| < \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)):

Question 5of 20

\(\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(\log(\sin x)\right)\) equals:

Question 6of 20

If \(f(x) = x^{2}\) and \(g(x) = \sqrt{x}\), then \(\dfrac{d}{dx}(f \circ g)\) at \(x = 4\) is:

Question 7of 20

If \(y = x^{x}\), then \(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\) equals:

Question 8of 20

If \(f(x) = \begin{cases} 3x - 2, & \text{if } x \le 1 \\ kx + 5, & \text{if } x > 1 \end{cases}\) is continuous at \(x = 1\), then \(k\) is:

Question 9of 20

If \(x = a\cos\theta\), \(y = a\sin\theta\), then \(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\) equals:

Question 10of 20

If \(y = x\cos x\), then \(\dfrac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\) equals:

Question 11of 20

Assertion (A): The function \(f(x) = x^{2}\sin\left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)\) for \(x \ne 0\) and \(f(0) = 0\) is differentiable at \(x = 0\).

Reason (R): \(\left|h\sin\dfrac{1}{h}\right| \le |h|\), and the squeeze theorem gives \(\lim_{h \to 0} h\sin\dfrac{1}{h} = 0\), so \(f'(0)\) exists.

Question 12of 20

Assertion (A): If \(f\) is differentiable at \(x = a\), then \(f\) is continuous at \(x = a\).

Reason (R): Differentiability at \(a\) requires \(\lim_{h \to 0}\dfrac{f(a+h)-f(a)}{h}\) to exist, which in turn forces \(\lim_{x \to a} f(x) = f(a)\).

Question 13of 20

Assertion (A): The function \(f(x) = |x| + |x-1|\) is continuous everywhere but not differentiable at \(x = 0\) and \(x = 1\).

Reason (R): \(|x-c|\) is continuous everywhere on \(\mathbb{R}\) but not differentiable at \(x = c\) (a corner).

Question 14of 20
  1. I. The product rule: \((uv)' = u'v + uv'\).
  2. II. The quotient rule: \(\left(\dfrac{u}{v}\right)' = \dfrac{u'v - uv'}{v^{2}}\) for \(v \ne 0\).

Question 15of 20
  1. I. Every differentiable function is continuous.
  2. II. Every continuous function is differentiable.

Which statements are correct?

Question 16of 20
  1. I. \(\dfrac{d}{dx}(\sin^{-1} x) = \sqrt{1-x^{2}}\).
  2. II. Implicit differentiation of \(x^{2} + y^{2} = r^{2}\) gives \(\dfrac{dy}{dx} = -\dfrac{x}{y}\).

Which statements are correct?

Question 19of 20

A particle's position is \(s(t) = t^{3} - 6t^{2} + 9t\) m. Its velocity at \(t = 2\) s is:

Question 20of 20

A taxi company in Dubai models the fare (in dirhams) for a ride of \(x\) km by \(f(x) = 2x^{2} + 10\) for \(0 \le x \le 4\) and \(f(x) = ax + b\) for \(x > 4\). To make the fare change smoothly at \(x = 4\) (the fare is continuous and has no sudden change in its rate), the value of \(a + b\) is:
