FOREWORD
These solutions are provided for the benefit of instructors using the textbooks:
Calculus: A Complete Course (9th Edition),
Single-Variable Calculus (9th Edition), and
Calculus of Several Variables (9th Edition)
by R. A. Adams and Chris Essex, published by Pearson Canada. For the most part, the solu-
tions are detailed, especially in exercises on core material and techniques. Occasionally some
details are omitted—for example, in exercises on applications of integration, the evaluation of
the integrals encountered is not always given with the same degree of detail as the evaluation of
integrals found in those exercises dealing specifically with techniques of integration.
Instructors may wish to make these solutions available to their students. However, students
should use such solutions with caution. It is always more beneficial for them to attempt exer-
cises and problems on their own, before they look at solutions done by others. If they examine
solutions as “study material” prior to attempting the exercises, they can lose much of the bene-
fit that follows from diligent attempts to develop their own analytical powers. When they have
tried unsuccessfully to solve a problem, then looking at a solution can give them a “hint” for
a second attempt. Separate Student Solutions Manuals for the books are available for students.
They contain the solutions to the even-numbered exercises only.

NOTE: “Solutions for Chapter 18-cosv9” is only needed by users of Calculus of Several Vari-
ables (9th Edition), which includes extra material in Sections 18.2 and 18.5 that is found in Cal-
culus: a Complete Course and in Single-Variable Calculus in Sections 7.9 and 3.7 respectively.
Solutions for Chapter 18-cosv9 contains only the solutions for the two Sections 18.2 and 18.9 in
the Several Variables book. All other Sections are in “Solutions for Chapter 18.”
It should also be noted that some of the material in Chapter 18 is beyond the scope of most
students in single-variable calculus courses as it requires the use of multivariable functions and
partial derivatives.

INSTRUCTOR’S SOLUTIONS MANUAL SECTION P.1 (PAGE 10)
CHAPTER P. PRELIMINARIES 19. Given: 1=.2 " x/ < 3.
CASE I. If x < 2, then 1 < 3.2 " x/ D 6 " 3x, so 3x < 5
and x < 5=3. This case has solutions x < 5=3.
Section P.1 Real Numbers and the Real Line CASE II. If x > 2, then 1 > 3.2 " x/ D 6 " 3x, so 3x > 5
(page 10) and x > 5=3. This case has solutions x > 2.
Solution: ."1; 5=3/ [ .2; 1/.
2 20. Given: .x C 1/=x # 2.
1. D 0:22222222 ! ! ! D 0:2
9 CASE I. If x > 0, then x C 1 # 2x, so x $ 1.
1 CASE II. If x < 0, then x C 1 $ 2x, so x # 1. (not
2. D 0:09090909 ! ! ! D 0:09 possible)
11
Solution: .0; 1!.
3. If x D 0:121212 ! ! !, then 100x D 12:121212 ! ! ! D 12 C x.
Thus 99x D 12 and x D 12=99 D 4=33. 21. Given: x 2 " 2x $ 0. Then x.x " 2/ $ 0. This is only
possible if x # 0 and x $ 2. Solution: Œ0; 2!.
4. If x D 3:277777 ! ! !, then 10x " 32 D 0:77777 ! ! ! and
100x " 320 D 7 C .10x " 32/, or 90x D 295. Thus 22. Given 6x 2 " 5x $ "1, then .2x " 1/.3x " 1/ $ 0, so either
x D 295=90 D 59=18. x $ 1=2 and x # 1=3, or x $ 1=3 and x # 1=2. The latter
combination is not possible. The solution set is Œ1=3; 1=2!.
5. 1=7 D 0:142857142857 ! ! ! D 0:142857
23. Given x 3 > 4x, we have x.x 2 " 4/ > 0. This is possible
2=7 D 0:285714285714 ! ! ! D 0:285714 if x < 0 and x 2 < 4, or if x > 0 and x 2 > 4. The
3=7 D 0:428571428571 ! ! ! D 0:428571 possibilities are, therefore, "2 < x < 0 or 2 < x < 1.
Solution: ."2; 0/ [ .2; 1/.
4=7 D 0:571428571428 ! ! ! D 0:571428
note the same cyclic order of the repeating digits 24. Given x 2 "x $ 2, then x 2 "x "2 $ 0 so .x "2/.x C1/ $ 0.
5=7 D 0:714285714285 ! ! ! D 0:714285 This is possible if x $ 2 and x # "1 or if x # 2 and
x $ "1. The latter situation is not possible. The solution
6=7 D 0:857142857142 ! ! ! D 0:857142 set is Œ"1; 2!.
6. Two different decimal expansions can represent the same x 4
number. For instance, both 0:999999 ! ! ! D 0:9 and 25. Given: #1C .
2 x
1:000000 ! ! ! D 1:0 represent the number 1. CASE I. If x > 0, then x 2 # 2x C 8, so that
x 2 " 2x " 8 # 0, or .x " 4/.x C 2/ # 0. This is pos-
7. x # 0 and x $ 5 define the interval Œ0; 5!. sible for x > 0 only if x # 4.
8. x < 2 and x # "3 define the interval Œ"3; 2/. CASE II. If x < 0, then we must have .x " 4/.x C 2/ $ 0,
which is possible for x < 0 only if x # "2.
9. x > "5 or x < "6 defines the union ."1; "6/ [ ."5; 1/. Solution: Œ"2; 0/ [ Œ4; 1/.
10. x $ "1 defines the interval ."1; "1!. 3 2
26. Given: < .
x"1 xC1
11. x > "2 defines the interval ."2; 1/. CASE I. If x > 1 then .x " 1/.x C 1/ > 0, so that
3.x C 1/ < 2.x " 1/. Thus x < "5. There are no solutions
12. x < 4 or x # 2 defines the interval ."1; 1/, that is, the in this case.
whole real line. CASE II. If "1 < x < 1, then .x " 1/.x C 1/ < 0, so
13. If "2x > 4, then x < "2. Solution: ."1; "2/ 3.x C 1/ > 2.x " 1/. Thus x > "5. In this case all
numbers in ."1; 1/ are solutions.
14. If 3x C 5 $ 8, then 3x $ 8 " 5 " 3 and x $ 1. Solution: CASE III. If x < "1, then .x " 1/.x C 1/ > 0, so that
."1; 1! 3.x C 1/ < 2.x " 1/. Thus x < "5. All numbers x < "5
are solutions.
15. If 5x " 3 $ 7 " 3x, then 8x $ 10 and x $ 5=4. Solution: Solutions: ."1; "5/ [ ."1; 1/.
."1; 5=4!
27. If jxj D 3 then x D ˙3.

16. If # , then 6 " x # 6x " 8. Thus 14 # 7x 28. If jx " 3j D 7, then x " 3 D ˙7, so x D "4 or x D 10.

18. If x < 9, then jxj < 3 and "3 < x < 3. Solution: 31. If j8 " 3sj D 9, then 8 " 3s D ˙9, so 3s D "1 or 17, and
