2) Use the difference quotient method to determine the equation of the tangent to the graph of \( f(x)=x^{2}-2 x+13 \) where \( x=3 . \quad(A-4 \) marks \( ) \) 3) For the graph of \( y=f(x) \) shown below, determine each of the following limits. \( (A-4 \) marks \( ) \) a) \( \lim _{x \rightarrow 2^{-}} f(x)= \) b) \( \lim _{x \rightarrow 2^{+}} f(x)= \) c) \( \lim _{x \rightarrow 2} f(x)= \) d) \( \lim _{x \rightarrow 0} f(x)= \) 4) As a snowball melts, it's volume decreases. The volume in cubic centimetres is given by the equation \( V(r)=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3} \), where \( r \) is the radius in centimetres. Determine, to the nearest tenth, the rate of change of the snowball's volume when its radius is \( 10 \mathrm{~cm} \). ( \( A-4 \mathrm{marks} \) )
