Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. If f is continuous on [a -b] then at some point - c in [a -b] - f(c)= (1/(a-b))*?f(x)dx (with bounds a -b)

22. Imaginary line drawn perpendicular to the surface of a mirror or any surface






23. When an absolute maximum or minimum occurs at the endpoint of the interval for which the function is defined

33. Limit of an average velocity - as the time interval gets smaller and smaller. Let s (t) be the position of an object at time t. The instantaneous velocity at t = a is defined as lim(h goes to 0) [s(a+h)-s(a)] / h
