1. Does there exist a differentiable function f so that f(-3) = -2, f(1) = -6, and f ' (x) > 0 for all x?
2. Find all numbers c in the interval (1,2) that satisfy the conclusion of the mean-value theorem.

3. Give the values of x for which the function graphed below is increasing.

4. The graph of f ' is shown below. Give the values of x for which the graph of f is concave down.

5. The graph of f ' is shown below. Give the values of x for which the graph of f is concave up.
