Good Luck!

Problem 1. Let and be continuous functions defined on all of .

1. Prove that if for some , then there is a number such that whenever .
2. Prove that if two continuous functions are equal over the rationals then they are always equal. That is, if for every then for all .

Problem 2. Let be a continuous function defined on all of , and assume that is rational for every . Prove that is a constant function.

Problem 3. We say that a function is locally bounded on some interval if for every there is an so that is bounded on . Let be a locally bounded function on the interval and let is bounded on  and .

Problem 4.

1. Define  is differentiable at ''.
2. Prove that if is differentiable at then it is also continuous at .

Problem 5. Draw an approximate graph of the function making sure to clearly indicate (along with clear justifications) the domain of definition of , its -intercepts and its -intercepts (if any), the behaviour of at and near points at which is undefined (if any), intervals on which is increasing/decreasing, its local minima/maxima (if any) and intervals on which is convex/concave.
