Problem 1 (4 points): Use the power series of sin in order to compute


sin(x) − x
lim .
x→0 x3

Problem 2 ((2+1+1)+3+2 points):


(a) Prove the following rules for general powers:
(i) For a ∈ R>0 and x, y ∈ R, we have ax+y = ax · ay and (ax )y = axy .
(ii) For a ∈ R>0 and x ∈ R, we have a−x = a1x .
(iii) For a, b ∈ R>0 and x ∈ R, we have (a · b)x = ax · bx .
(b) For a ∈ R>0 \ {1}, we consider the function fa : R → R, x 7→ ax . Show that fa is
strictly monotonic with image fa (R) = R>0 . Determine fa−1 : R>0 → R.
√
(c) Show that x1/n = n x for x √ > 0 and n ∈ N, where x1/n is a general power in the
sense of Definition 4.41 and n x is the n-th root defined in Example 2.15.
