Limits

When it comes to calculus, limits are considered to be a very important topic of discussion. The main importance of limit lies in expressing the value of a function as it gets closer to a certain value. Also, limits can help you to understand other topic…

Question 1. (10 points) A researcher is studying tumours in mice. The growth rate for the volume of the tumour V(t) in cm³ is given by dV = 1.45V(2 In(V+1)). dt (a) (4 pts) Find all the equilibria and determine their stability using the stability condition. (b) (2 pts) Draw the phase plot f(V) versus V where f(V) = V'. You may find it helpful to use Desmos or Wolfram Alpha to plot the graph of f(V) versus V (both are free to use online), or you can plot it by hand if you like. On the plot identify each equilibrium as stable or unstable. (c) (4 pts) Draw direction arrows for the case where the tumour starts at size 3cm³ and for the case where the tumour starts at size 9cm³. Explain in biological terms what happens to the size of each of these tumours at time progresses.

For the system consisting of the two planes:plane 1: -x + y + z = 0plane 2: 3x + y + 3z = 0a) Are the planes parallel and/or coincident? Justify your answer. What does this tell you about the solution to the system?b) Solve the system (if possible). Show a complete solution. If there is a line of intersection express it in parametric form.

Question 2: (10 points) Evaluate the definite integral. Use the following form of the definition of the integral to evaluate the integral: Theorem: Iff is integrable on [a, b], then where Ax = (ba)/n and x₂ = a + i^x. You might need the following formulas. IM³ L² (3x² (3x²+2x- 2x - 1)dx. n [f(z)dz lim f(x)Az a n→∞ i=1 n(n + 1) 2 n i=1 n(n+1)(2n+1) 6
