5. Evaluate the limit or determine that it does not exist. State a reason why. Use a graph to back up all conclusions.
6. Determine what value of the constant ‘ a ‘ makes the function
continuous everywhere.
7. Determine the equation of a function where the following conditions are met:
8. Using the Limit Tutor determine: ![]()
Maple Problem Set
1. When the command limit is capitalized, it tells Maple to create at typeset statement of the limit. When the command is entered with a lower case l, Maple performs the calculation.

2. The iscont() command checks for continuity.
3. If a function is discontinous, the adding discont=true or discont=[showremoveable] will help omit extraneous vertical lines or add in circles that highlight where a function has a hole, respectively.
4. The keyword infinity can be used to represent infinity. Also the ∞ symbol is on the Common Symbols Palette.

4. A conveyor belt is dumping corn into a large empty silo, forming a circular based cone shaped - heap on the floor. The base radius is twice the size of the height of the pile. If the corn is filling in the space at a rate of 2
/ minute, find the rate at which the height is changing when the height is 3 m deep.
5. Housing developers hoping to attract buyers will often build in amenities for community members to enjoy. In a particular community, fishing is a key attraction, so the housing developers agree to build a small lake and stock it with trout. The population of trout over time can be modeled by
, where time is measured in months.
