Question 11

For the function $$f(x) = x e$$^{-3x}$$, use the first and second derivative tests to determine if a critical value is an extrema.

Accepted Answer

A critical value is an extrema if $$f'(x) = 0$$ and $$f''(x) is $$positive (minimum) or negative (maximum) at that point.

Question 12

Given the graph of $$f(x) ($$first image), which of the following statements is true about the critical points?

Accepted Answer

The function has two local extrema and one inflection point.

Question 13

Given the table (second image), what is $$q'(1) if$$ $$q(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$$?

Accepted Answer

$$q'(1) = \frac{f'(1) \cdot g(1) - f(1) \cdot g'(1)}{[g(1)]^2} = \frac{1 \cdot 2 - 3 \cdot 4}{2^2$} = \frac{2 - 12}{4} = -2.5$$

Question 14

For the function $$f(x) = 2x^3$ - 3x^2$ - 36x on $$the interval $$[-3, 4]$$, what are the global maximum and minimum values?

Accepted Answer

Global maximum and minimum occur at critical points and endpoints.

Question 15

If the marginal cost function is $$MC = 5q^2$ - 2q + 1$$ and fixed costs are $$200$$, what is the total cost function $$C(q)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$C(q) = \int (5q^2$ - 2q + 1) dq + 200 = \frac{5}{3}q^3$ - q^2$ + q + 200$$

Question 16

Given $$f(x) = x + 2$$ and $$g(x) = x$$ for $$-1 \leq x \leq 2$$, what is the area between the two curves?

Accepted Answer

$$\int_{-1}^{2} [(x + 2) - x] dx = \int_{-1}^{2} 2 dx = 2 \cdot (2 - (-1)) = 6$$

Question 17

If $$f(x) = \ln(2x - 5)^3$, what is f$$'(x)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$f'(x) = \frac{6}{2x - 5}$$

Question 18
