Quiz #1



Below I am giving you a handful of problems. You don't need to do all of them, but you must do the first problem.

Question #1: Let st be your student id number. Enter the formula on the blackboard. The answer to the question determines which two other questions you should answer.

Question #2: Given a string w where length(w) is even, construct a string where the first and second characters are switched, the third and fourth characters are switched, the fifth and sixth characters are switched, etc. For instance, if w:="ABCDEFGH" then the output string out is "BADCFEHG".

Question #3: Given a string w where length(w) is even, construct a string consisting of the letters in the even positions, followed by the letters in the odd positions. For instance, if w:="ABCDEFGH" then the output string out is "BDFHACEG".

Question #4: Given a string w with letters and other symbols, construct a string where lower case letters are replaced by upper case letters and upper case letters are replaced by lower case letters. For instance if w:="What do YOU want with Me?", then the output string should be "wHAT DO you WANT WITH mE?"

Question #5: Show that the curves $\sqrt{25-x^2}$ and $sin(2(x-5)\pi)$ intersect in exactly two points. Find the area between the two curves.

Question #6: Find at least one point of intersection for $0 < x < 10$ between the curve $sin(5\pi x)$ and $\sqrt{10x-x^2}$. Give the value of $x$ to at least 3 decimal places. Hint: one way of doing this is to graph the difference of these curves and find the zeros.

Question #7 Find the area between the two curves $6 sin^3( \pi x)$ and $sin^3(3 \pi x) sin^3( \pi x)$ for $x$ between 0 and 2.
