(d) y =

y =
x + eπ cos 4 + sin^5 (6x)
y =

Note that eπ^ and cos 4 are constants.

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

(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 ? =
xy
13 + 2^3 ? =
? = 9
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 =
· 1 + b ⇒

Therefore, we have y =

(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

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
