QUESTION 9

Once we find the second derivative, we only need to solve for the second factor since we are told in the
question that x=1 satisfies f||(x)=0. [NB: zero-product theorem says A.B=0 therefore either A=0 or B=0,
where A and B are factors.]. If x=1 satisfies f||(x)=0, we know that ln(x)=0 at x=1 and therefore only need
to solve for the second factor.

QUESTION 10
ax 2 + bx + c
Consider the given properties (i) – (iii) of f ( x ) = .
x+d
ax 2 + bx + c
From (i) the equation becomes f ( x ) =
x!4
Using long division one finds that the slant asymptote is y = ax + 4a + b , applying one’s knowledge of
property (iii) above one finds that a = 3 .
3x 2 + bx + c
The equation now becomes f ( x ) = .
x!4
Using property (ii), we can derive the function f and solve for both b and c simultaneously.

| (6x + b) ( x ! 4) ! (3x 2 + bx + c) (1)

f ( x) = 2
( x ! 4)
Now use f|(x)=0 at x=1

| (6x + b) ( x ! 4) ! (3x 2 + bx + c) (1)

f ( x) = 2
( x ! 4)
0=
(6 + b) (!3) ! (3+ b + c) (1)
2
(!3)
0 = ( 6 + b) (!3) ! (3+ b + c)
0 = !18 ! 3b ! 3! b ! c
"c = !21! 4b

Substitute c = !21! 4b and P(1, 3) into f(x).

3x 2 + bx + !21! 4b
f ( x) =
x!4
2
3 (1) + b (1) ! 21! 4b
3=
1! 4
"b = !3
"c = !21! 4b = !21! 4 (!3) = !9

3x 2 ! 3x ! 9
Thus f(x) becomes f ( x ) = .
x!4
Now calculate the second derivative and check to see which type of critical point P is.
3x 2 ! 24x + 21
f | ( x) = 2
( x ! 4)
2
|| (6x ! 24x ) ( x ! 4) ! (3x 2 ! 24x + 21) ( 2 ) ( x ! 4)
f ( x) = 4
( x ! 4)
f || (1) = !2
" f || (1) < 0

Since f||(x)<0, P is a local maximum and 2 + f ( 0 ) = 4, 250 .

QUESTION 11

Given: y = Ax 2 + Bx 2 + C and f | (1) = 6

P (1; 7) is on the graph and a point of inflection

dy 3 1 2
= Ax + 2Bx
dx 2
substitute : f | (1) = 6
3
6= A + 2B
2
This yields eqn.1 12 = 3A + 4B  

d 2 y 3 ! 12
and = Ax + 2B
dx 2 4

substitute : f || (1) = 0
3
0= A + 2B
4

3
this yields eqn.2 B = ! A  
8
solving eqn.1 and eqn.2 simultaneously we obtain: A = 8 and B = !3
3
y = Ax 2 + Bx 2 + C

C = y ! Ax 2 ! Bx 2
substitute : A, B, P (1; 7)

C = 7 ! (8) (1) 2 ! (!3) (1)
C=2

0 = x ( x + 2)
x = 0; x = !2

check endpoints as well

y ( 0 ) = 5  ;     y (!2 ) = 9  ;     y (1) = 9  ;     y (!1) = 7

sum of global maximum and minimum = 14

Area of shaded region is 2400cm2. Using the graphical interpretation with appropriate label we derive the
following relationships.

First draw a diagram of the situation and label it accordingly. Once you have this = 3x + 2x $ 2 ' + 6x $ 2'
# 3x & # 3x &
setup determine what the surface area will be and derive an equation for the costs
involved for the base and sides. Once you have this relationship use the 20 20

differentiation rules to solve for the best x-value that will yield a minimum cost and 3x x
back substitute into the cost formula. See figure 3 in appendix 1.
