Shortly after beginning his studies, freshman Felix is convinced he needs a high-end PC in order to solve his maths problems.

costs: 5000 DM - Savings account balance: 0 DM.

a)
His bank offers him a credit that is to be repayed in $ 24$ equal monthly rates. For the remainders of his debt Felix has to pay $ 1\%$ interest per month; the first rate is to be payed after one month. How much are the monthly rates $ r$?

b)
Felix decides to repay the credit not in monthly rates, but the entire sum as a whole after two years. How much is that sum when interest calculation is carried out once a year, every three months, monthly, daily or at steady interest with $ 12\%$ , $ 3\%$ or $ 1\%$ respectively? Determine each time the yearly effective yield.


Let the function $ f$ be differentiable at $ x_0\in\mathbb{R}$ and let $ f$ further suffice the equation $ f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)$ for all $ x,y\in\mathbb{R}$ .
a)
Use the difference quotient to show that $ f$ is differentiable for all $ x \in \mathbb{R}$.
b)
Prove the existence of a constant $ a\in \mathbb{R}$ with $ f(x)=ax$ for all $ x \in \mathbb{R}$.

The front of a greenhouse shall have the form of a axes-symmetric pentagon with three right angles (cp.figure). The amount of the glass wall is limited by 20 m; the area within shall be maximised.

What's the height and the width of the greenhouse?

For $ m,n\in\mathbb{N}$ let $ f$ be

$\displaystyle f(x)=x^m(1-x)^n, \qquad x\in\mathbb{R}\,. $

a)
Examine $ f$ with regard to zero points and local extrema. How does $ f(x)$ behave for $ x\longrightarrow\pm\infty$ ?
b)
Sketch the graph of $ f$ for $ m=2$ and $ n=3$ .
c)
Together with the $ x$ -axis, the graph of $ f$ encloses a finite area. Determine its size.
