  1. Recent studies indicates that the average surface temperature of the earth has been rising rapidly. Some scientists have modeled the temperature by the linear function $T = 0.03t + 8.50$, where $T$ is temperature in degree centigrade and $t$ represents years since 1900.

    a. What do the slope and $T$-intercept represent?

    b. Use the equation to predict the average global surface temperature in 2100

  2. Find the equation of tangent at $(1, 2)$ to the curve $y = 2x^2$

  4. Use Newton’s method to find $^6\sqrt{2}$ correct five decimal places.

  5. Find the derivatives of $r(t) = (1 + t^2)i - te^{-t} j + \sin 2tk$ and find the unit tangent vector at $t=0$.

  6. Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating about the $y$-axis the region between $y = x$ and $y = x^2$.

  7. Solve: $y’ + 2xy - 1 = 0$

  8. What is sequence? Is the sequence $a_n = \frac{n}{\sqrt{5+n}}$ convergent?
