For the following exercises, with the aid of a graphing utility, explain why the function is not differentiable everywhere on its domain. Specify the points where the function is not differentiable.
Given that the volume of a right circular cone is and that a given cone has a fixed height of 9 cm and variable radius length, find the instantaneous rate of change of volume with respect to radius length when the radius is 2 cm. Give an exact answer in terms of
For the following exercises, use the graph of in [link] .
At what values of is discontinuous? What property of continuity is violated?
For the following exercises, with the use of a graphing utility, use numerical or graphical evidence to determine the left- and right-hand limits of the function given as approaches If the function has a limit as approaches state it. If not, discuss why there is no limit
and Thus, the limit of the function as approaches 2 does not exist.
