Precalculus B MP3 Cumulative Exam Review



Topics on Exam
1. Graphing Rational Functions and state asymptotes, y-intercept.
a. One vertical asymptote (2 branches)
b. Two vertical asymptotes (3 branches)
2. Solving rational equations
a. One fraction = one fraction (cross multiply)
b. More than two fractions (give the numerator what it doesnt have. Solve and check
your answer (make sure it does not make the denominator zero)
3. Graphing exponential equations and state the y-intercept, asymptote, domain and range.
4. Calculating compound interest (discrete and continuous)
5. Writing and analyzing exponential growth and decay models.
6. Evaluating logs and properties of logs (condensing and expanding)
7. Solving exponential and logarithmic equations
8. Half-life and doubling
I decided not to include vectors in the MP exam. It is too recent of a topic.
