Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related CAL2.154 Strategic Tool Selection skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A capstone project estimates ∫_0³ e^(-x²) dx, compares several numerical methods, and presents a written reasonableness check. Which strategy is most appropriate?

AHand reasoning to check continuity and sign, a graphing calculator for an accurate numerical value, and a spreadsheet for method-comparison tables

BSimulation only, because random results are automatically exact

CCAS only, stopping if no elementary antiderivative is returned

DHand arithmetic only for every comparison table

Solution & Explanation:This project has multiple goals: theorem-based checks, a reliable numerical value, and repeated method comparisons. A strategic combination of hand reasoning, graphing calculator computation, and spreadsheet organization best matches those goals.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A synthetic acceleration table sampled every 0.1 seconds must be converted to velocity change by numerical integration, checked with formulas, and graphed. Which tool is most appropriate?

AHand exact antiderivative

BCAS for exact polar area

CSimulation

DSpreadsheet

Solution & Explanation:A spreadsheet keeps the sampled data, Δt values, numerical integration formulas, cumulative totals, and graph together. There is no given symbolic acceleration formula to integrate by hand.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A graph of partial sums appears to level off for Σ_{n=1}^∞ 1/sqrt(n), but the final question asks for a convergence decision with proof. Which tool is most appropriate?

ASpreadsheet graph only

BGraphing calculator finite sum only

CHand method

DSimulation

Solution & Explanation:The p-series test shows divergence because p=1/2≤1. Finite partial sums can grow slowly and may look misleading, so the proof must rely on a theorem.
