(d) y =

x + eπ cos 4 + sin^5 (6x)

y =

x + eπ cos 4 + sin^5 (6x)

y =

x + eπ cos 4 + sin^5 (6x)

Note that eπ^ and cos 4 are constants.

dy dx

(1)(cos 4 + sin^5 (6x)) − (x + eπ^ )(5 sin^4 (6x) · cos(6x) · 6) (cos 4 + sin^5 (6x))^2

Recall that sin^5 (6x) = (sin(6x))^5.

  1. Consider the curve defined by x^3 + y^3 =

x^3 + y^3 = xy

(b) Verify that the point (1,2) is on the curve above. We must check to see if the values x = 1 and y = 2 satisfy the equation above.

x^3 + y^3 ? =

13 + 2^3 ? =

Thus, the point (1,2) is on the curve.

(c) Find the equation of the tangent line at the point (1,2). We want y = mx + b.

m =

, so y =

x + b.

Now plug in x = 1 and y = 2 to find b. 2 =

Therefore, we have y =

  1. Consider the function f f f(((xxx) =) =) = xxx^444 eeexxx^ with domain all real numbers.

(a) Find the xxx-value(s) of all roots (xxx-intercepts) of fff. The equation x^4 ex^ = 0 means x^4 = 0 (that is, x = 0) or ex^ = 0 (no solution), so the only root is at x = 0. (b) Find the xxx- and yyy-value(s) of all critical points and identify each as a local max, local min, or neither.

f′^ (x) = 4x^3 ex^ + x^4 ex 0 = x^3 ex(4 + x) ⇒ x = 0, − 4 Note that ex^ is never 0.

x < − 4 − 4 < x < 0 4 < x f′^ positive negative positive f ↗ ↘ ↗ y-values: f(−4) = 256e−^4 ≈ 4 .689, f(0) = 0 So, f has a local maximum at (− 4 , 256 e−^4 ) and a local minimum at (0, 0).

(c) Find the xxx- and yyy-value(s) of all global extrema and identify each as a global max or global min. There is a global minimum at (0, 0). There is no global maximum because as x → ∞, f(x) → ∞. Note that as x → −∞, f(x) → 0. You can verify this by using L’Hopital’s Rule on x^4 /e−x. (d) Find the xxx-value(s) of all inflection points.

f′′(x) = 12x^2 ex^ + 4x^3 ex^ + 4x^3 ex^ + x^4 ex^ Use Product Rule on each product in f′(x) above. 0 = ex^ (x^4 + 8x^3 + 12x^2 ) 0 = ex^ x^2 (x^2 + 8x + 12) 0 = ex^ x^2 (x + 2)(x + 6) ⇒ x = 0, − 2 , − 6

x < − 6 − 6 < x < − 2 − 2 < x < 0 0 < x f′′^ positive negative positive positive f concave up concave down concave up concave up

Goal : Maximize volume

Objective function: volume = V = x · x · y = x^2 y

We need to get this down to a function of just one variable, so we use the constraint equation:

total cost =(cost of base) + (cost of two square ends) + (cost of two other sides) 288 = 3 xy + 12 · 2 x^2 + 12 · 2 xy 288 = 27xy + 24x^2 288 − 24 x^2 = 27xy 288 − 24 x^2 27 x = y

Substituting this back into the objective function gives

V = x^2 y = x^2 ·

288 − 24 x^2 27 x

= x ·

288 − 24 x^2 27

(288x − 24 x^3 ).

Now that we have V as a function of just one variable, we find its maximum.

V ′(x) =

(288 − 72 x^2 )

0 =

(288 − 72 x^2 )

0 = (288 − 72 x^2 ) 72 x^2 = 288

x^2 =

x = 2 We discard x = −2 because lengths must be nonnegative.

Since V ′^ is positive for x < 2 and negative for 2 < x, we know that the maximum occurs at x = 2.

And y =

288 − 24 x^2 27 x

, so the dimensions are 2 by 2 by
