Differential Calculus: Exercise 1

This document contains a series of calculus exercises involving limits, continuity, differentiation, and natural domains of functions. The exercises include: 1) Finding the natural domain of various functions. 2) Sketching graphs of functions and determining their domains and ranges. 3) Evaluating limits of functions as variables approach certain values. 4) Analyzing continuity of piecewise functions at given points. 5) Determining values that make piecewise functions continuous or differentiable. 6) Explaining the geometric interpretation of the derivative dy/dx.
