Introduction:
"There's a lot more to Calculus than just integrating and differentiating mindlessly. This quiz will cover some of the theorems and concepts behind the area. Some questions are hard, but you shouldn't need to do any actual computations."


1. Which of the following can be thought of as a special case of the Mean Value Theorem?
    Intermediate Value Theorem
    Rolle's Theorem
    Extreme Value Theorem
    L'Hopital's rule


2. How many REAL roots does the polynomial x to the fifth +12x-7 have?
    0
    1
    2
    3


3. What is the integral from -Pi over 7 to Pi over 7 of Sin(x cubed)?
    Answer: (Give your answer as a number, using pi if necessary.)


4. What is the integral from 0 to Pi over 2 of (Sine of x divided by the sum of Sine of x and Cosine of x)?
    Pi over 6
    Pi over 2
    Pi over 4
    Pi over 3


5. Which of the following statements are true? 1. If a function is Continuous on the closed interval between 0 and 1, it must be Riemann integrable. 2. If a function is Riemann Integrable on that interval, it must be continuous there. 3. If a function is bounded on the closed interval containing 0 and 1 its integral must exist there?
    1 and 2, but not 3
    1 only
    all 3
    1 and 3, but not 2


6. How many roots (real or complex and counting multiple roots the number of times they occur) will a polynomial of degree n have?
    At least n, but sometimes more
    We can't tell, we need more information to determine anything
    At most n, but sometimes less
    Exactly n


7. Suppose a function satisfies f(0)=1 and f(2)=-1. What can we say about the roots of the function between 0 and 2?
    There is at least one root, possibly more
    There is exactly one root
    Nothing...we need more information
    There is at most one root, possibly less


8. True or False: If two infinitely differentiable functions match in their value and all their derivatives at a point, then the functions must be the same?
    True
    False


9. Are the following statements true or false: A. If a function is differentiable at 0, it is continuous there. B. If a function is differentiable at 0, its derivative is continuous there?
    B is true, but not A
    neither are true
    both are true
    A is true, but not B


10. You have a double integral of a continuous function over a bounded region, and you calculate it by evaluating the integrals one at a time. Whose theorem did you just use?
    Answer: (Last name only!)
