3. (A) Since f ′(1) = 0 and f ′ changes from negative to positive there, f reaches a minimum at x = 1. Although f ′(2) = 0 as well, f ′ does not change sign there, and thus f has neither a maximum nor a minimum at x = 2.

16. (E) [cos (x2)] ′ = −sin (x2) · 2x. The missing factor 2x cannot be created through introduction of constants alone.
17. (E) As the water gets deeper, the depth increases more slowly. Hence, the rate of change of depth decreases:

This function is discontinuous at x = 0. Since the particular solution must be differentiable in an interval containing the initial value x = 1, the domain is x > 0.

Part B
29. (B) At x = 3, the equation of the tangent line is y − 8 = −4(x − 3), so f (x) −4(x − 3) + 8. f (3.02) −4(0.02) + 8.
30. (C)
The velocity is graphed in [−1,11] × [−15, 5]. The object reverses direction when the velocity changes sign, that is, when the graph crosses the x-axis. There are two such reversals − at x = a and at x = b.
31. (D) The sign diagram shows that f changes from increasing to decreasing at x = 4
and thus f has a maximum there. Because f increases to the right of x = 0 and decreases to the left of x = 5, there are minima at the endpoints.
32. (D) Since f ′ decreases, increases, then decreases, f ″ changes from negative to positive, then back to negative. Hence, the graph of f changes concavity at x = 2 and x = 3.
33. (B)
On the curve of f (x) − ex − x2, the two points labeled are (0,1) and (1, e − 1).
The slope of the secant line is Find c in [0,1] such that, f ′(c) = e − 2, or f ′(c) − (e − 2) = 0. Since f ′(x) = ex − 2x, c can be calculated by solving 0 = ex − 2x − (e − 2). The answer is 0.351.

Alternatively, use shells*; then ΔV = 2πRHT = 2πx(2 − ex) Δx. Here, the upper limit of integration is the value of x for which ex = 2, namely, ln 2. Now evaluate
* No question requiring the use of the shells method will appear on the AP exam.
35. (C) Note that the rate is people per minute, so the first interval width from midnight to 6 A.M. is 360 minutes. The total number of people is estimated as the sum of the areas of six trapezoids:
36. (C) so v = 3t3 + c.
Since v = 1 when t = 0, c = 1.
Now so s = t3 + t + c.
Since, s = 3 when t = 0, c = 3; then s = t3 + t + 3.

To find a, the point of intersection of y = x2 and y = cos (x), use your calculator to solve the equation x2 − cos (x) = 0. (Store the value for later use; a ≈ 0.8241.)

Evaluate the area:
39. (D) If x = 2t + 1, then When t = 0, x = 1; when t = 3, x = 7.
40. (E) Use A(t) = A0 ekt, where the initial amount A0 is 50. Then A(t) = 50ekt. Since 45 g remain after 9 days, 45 = 50ek·9, which yields
To find t when 20 g remain, solve for t.
Thus,
41. (C) See the figure above. Since x2 + y2 = 262, it follows that
at any time t. When x = 10, then y = 24 and it is given that

45. (D) Let y = (x3 − 4x2 + 8)ecos(x2). The equation of the tangent at point (2, y (2)) is y − y(2) = y ′(2)(x − 2). Note that y(2) = 0. To find the y-intercept, let x = 0 and solve for y: y = −2y ′(2). A calculator yields y = 4.161.

AB/BC 2. (a) Graph y = (x + ex) sin (x2) in [1, 3] × [−15, 20], Note that y represents velocity v and x represents time t.
(b) The object moves to the left when the velocity is negative, namely, on the interval p < t < r. Use the calculator to solve (x + ex)(sin (x2)) = 0; then p = 1.772 and r = 2.507. The answer is 1.772 < t < 2.507.
(c) As the object moves to the left (with v(t) negative), the speed of the object increases when its acceleration v ′(t) is also negative, that is, when v(t) is decreasing. This is true when, for example, t = 2.
(d) The displacement of an object from time t1, to time t2, is equal to
Evaluate this integral on the calculator; to three decimal places the answer is 4.491. This means that at t = 3 the object is 4.491 units to the right of its position at t = 1, given to be x = 10. Hence, at t = 3 the object is at x = 10 + 4.491 = 14.491.

(b) Since the function has a horizontal asymptote at y = ln 3. (Review Chapter 2)
AB/BC 6. (a)
(c) The line tangent to the graph of A at x = 6 passes through point (6, A(6)) or (6, 9π). Since A ′(x) = f (x), the graph of f shows that A ′(6) = f (6) = 6. Hence, an equation of the line is y − 9π = 6(x − 6).
(d) Use the tangent line; then A(x) = y ≈ 6(x − 6) + 9π, so A(7) ≈ 6(7 − 6) + 9π = 6 + 9π.
(e) Since f is increasing on [0,6], f ′ is positive there. Because f (x) = A ′(x), f ′(x) = A ″(x); thus A is concave upward for [0,6]. Similarly, the graph of A is concave downward for [6,12], and upward for [12,18]. There are points of inflection on the graph of A at (6,9π) and (12,18π).

40. (E) so the limit exists. Because g(3) = 9, g is continuous at x = 3. Since
41. (E) Since f ′(0) is not defined; f ′(x) must be defined on (−8,8).
42. (A) Note that f (0) = = 0 and that f ′(x) exists on the given interval. By the MVT, there is a number, c, in the interval such that f ′(c) = 0. If c = 1, then 6c2 − 6 = 0. (−1 is not in the interval.)
43. (B) Since the inverse, h, of f (x) = is h(x) = then h ′(x) = Replace x by 3.
44. (D) After 50(!) applications of L’Hôpital’s Rule we get which “equals” ∞. A perfunctory examination of the limit, however, shows immediately that the answer is ∞. In fact, for any positive integer n, no matter how large, is ∞.
45. (C) cos(xy)(xy ′ + y) = 1; x cos(xy)y ′ = 1 − y cos(xy);
NOTE: In Questions 46–50 the limits are all indeterminate forms of the type We have therefore applied L’Hôpital’s Rule in each one. The indeterminacy can also be resolved by introducing which approaches 1 as a approaches 0. The latter technique is presented in square brackets.

(x − 3)2 + (y + 1)2 = 4.
This is the equation of a circle with center at (3,−1) and radius 2. In the domain given, −π ≤ t ≤ π, the entire circle is traced by a particle moving counterclockwise, starting from and returning to (3, −3).

63. (B) [f (x3)] ′ = f ′(x3)·3x2, so P ′(1) = f ′(13)·3·12 = 2·3.
64. (D) f (S(x)) = x implies that f ′(S(x)) · S ′(x) = 1, so

66. (C) Near a vertical asymptote the slopes must approach ±∞.
67. (A) There is only one horizontal tangent.
68. (D) Use the symmetric difference quotient; then
69. (E) Since the water level rises more slowly as the cone fills, the rate of depth change is decreasing, as in (C) and (E). However, at every instant the portion of the cone containing water is similar to the entire cone; the volume is proportional to the cube of the depth of the water. The rate of change of depth (the derivative) is therefore not linear, as in (C).
70. (C) The only horizontal tangent is at x = 4. Note that f ′(1) does not exist.
71. (E) The graph has corners at x = 1 and x = 2; the tangent line is vertical at x = 6.
72. (B) Consider triangle ABC: AB = 1; radius AC = 2; thus, BC = and AC has m = − The tangent line is perpendicular to the radius.

77. (E) f satisfies Rolle’s Theorem on [2,10].
78. (C) The diagrams show secant lines (whose slope is the difference quotient) with greater slopes than the tangent line. In both cases, f is concave upward.
79. (C) (f ο g) ′ at x = 3 equals f ′(g(3)) · g ′(3) equals cos u (at u = 0) times 2x (at x = 3) = 1 · 6 = 6.
80. (E) Here f ′(x) equals

84. (B) Sketch the graph of f (x) = 1 − |x|; note that f (−1) = f (1) = 0 and that f is continuous on [−1,1]. Only (B) holds.
85. (C) Since f ′(x) = 6x2 − 3, therefore also, f (x), or 2x3 − 3x, equals −1, by observation, for x = 1. So h ′(−1) or (when x = 1) equals

92. (B) By calculator, f ′(0) = 1.386294805 and
93. (E) Now
94. (B) Note that any line determined by two points equidistant from the origin will necessarily be horizontal.
95. (D) Note that f (h(x)) = f ′(h(x)) · h ′(x) = g(h(x)) · h ′(x) = g(sin x) · cos x.
96. (E) Since f (x) = 3x − x3, then f ′(x) = 3x ln 3 − 3x2. Furthermore, f is continuous on [0,3] and f ′ is differentiable on (0,3), so the MVT applies. We therefore seek c such that Solving 3x ln 3 − 3x2 = with a calculator, we find that c may be either 1.244 or 2.727. These values are the x-coordinates of points on the graph of f (x) at which the tangents are parallel to the secant through points (0,1) and (3,0) on the curve.
97. (A) The line segment passes through (1,−3) and (2,−4).
Use the graph of f ′(x), shown above, for Questions 98–101.
98. (E) f ′(x) = 0 when the slope of f (x) is 0; that is, when the graph of f is a horizontal segment.
99. (E) The graph of f ′(x) jumps at each corner of the graph of f (x), namely, at x equal to −3, −1, 1,2, and 5.

1. (D) Substituting y = 2 yields x = 1. We find y ′ implicitly.
3 y2 y ′ − (2 xyy ′ + y2) = 0; (3 y2 − 2xy)y ′ − y2 = 0.
Replace x by 1 and y by 2; solve for y ′.
2. (A) 2yy ′ − (xy ′ + y) − 3 = 0. Replace x by 0 and y by −1; solve for y ′.

4. (B) Since y ′ = e−x (1 − x) and e−x > 0 for all x, y ′ = 0 when x = 1.
5. (D) The slope y ′ = 5x4 + 3x2 − 2. Let g = y ′. Since g ′(x) = 20x3 + 6x = 2x(10x2 + 3), g ′(x) = 0 only if x = 0. Since g ″ (x) = 60x2 + 6, g ″ is always positive, assuring that x = 0 yields the minimum slope. Find y ′ when x = 0.
6. (C) Since 2x − 2yy ′ = 0, At (4, 2), y ′ = 2. The equation of the tangent at (4, 2) is y − 2 = 2(x − 4).
7. (D) Since the tangent is vertical for x = 2y. Substitute in the given equation and solve for y.

10. (B) We want to approximate the change in area of the square when a side of length e increases by 0.01e. The answer is
A ′(e)(0.01e) or 2e (0.01e).
11. (D) Since V = e3, V ′ = 3e2. Therefore at e = 10, the slope of the tangent line is 300. The change in volume is approximately 300(±0.1) = 30 in.3
12. (E) f ′(x) = 4x3 − 8x = 4x(x2 − 2). f ′ = 0 if x = 0 or
f ″(x) = 12x2 − 8; f ″ is positive if x = negative if x = 0.
13. (C) Since f ″(x) = 4(3x2 − 2), it equals 0 if Since f ″ changes sign from positive to negative at and from negative to positive at both locate inflection points.

19. (D) The speed = |v|. From Question 18, |v| = v. The least value of v is 0.
20. (A) The acceleration From Question 18, a = 6(t − 2).
21. (E) The speed is decreasing when v and a have opposite signs. The answer is t < 2, since for all such t the velocity is positive while the acceleration is negative. For t > 2, both v and a are positive.
22. (B) The particle is at rest when v = 0; v = 2t(2t2 − 9t + 12) = 0 only if t = 0. Note that the discriminant of the quadratic factor (b2 − 4ac) is negative.
23. (D) Since a = 12(t − 1)(t − 2), we check the signs of a in the intervals t < 1, 1 < t < 2, and t > 2. We choose those where a > 0.
24. (A) From Questions 22 and 23 we see that v > 0 if t > 0 and that a > 0 if t < 1 or t > 2. So both v and a are positive if 0 < t < 1 or t > 2. There are no values of t for which both v and a are negative.
25. (D) See the figure, which shows the motion of the particle during the time interval −2 ≤ t ≤ 4. The particle is at rest when t = 0 or 3, but reverses direction only at 3. The endpoints need to be checked here, of course. Indeed, the maximum displacement occurs at one of those, namely, when t = −2.

Replace h by 8.
33. (D) Since y ′ = 0 if x = 1 and changes from negative to positive as x increases through 1, x = 1 yields a minimum. Evaluate y at x = 1.
34. (A) The domain of y is −∞ < x < ∞. The graph of y, which is nonnegative, is symmetric to the y-axis. The inscribed rectangle has area A = 2xe−x2. Thus which is 0 when the positive value of x is This value of x yields maximum area. Evaluate A.

q ′ = 0 when x = 3. Note that it suffices to minimize the square of the distance.
37. (E) Minimize, if possible, xy, where x2 + y2 = 200 (x, y > 0). The derivative of the product is which equals 0 for x = 10. The derivative is positive to the left of that point and negative to the right, showing that x = 10 yields a maximum product. No minimum exists.
38. (C) Minimize Since
q ′ = 0 if x = 3. Since q ′ is negative to the left of x = 3 and positive to the right, the minimum value of q occurs at x = 3.
39. (A) The best approximation for when h is small is the local linear (or tangent line) approximation. If we let then and The approximation for f (h) is f (0) + f ′(0) · h, which equals

44. (D) Since ab > 0, a and b have the same sign; therefore f ″(x) = 12ax2 + 2b never equals 0. The curve has one horizontal tangent at x = 0.
45. (C) Since the first derivative is positive, the function must be increasing. However, the negative second derivative indicates that the rate of increase is slowing down, as seen in table C.
46. (B) Since therefore, at t = 1, Also, x = 3 and y = 2.
47. (A) Let f (x) = x1/3, and find the slope of the tangent line at (64, 4). Since If we move one unit to the left of 64, the tangent line will drop approximately unit.

50. (E) Since the curve has a positive y-intercept, e > 0. Note that f ′(x) = 2cx + d and f ″(x) = 2c. Since the curve is concave down, f ″(x) < 0, implying that c < 0. Since the curve is decreasing at x = 0, f ′(0) must be negative, implying, since f ′(0) = d, that d < 0. Therefore c < 0, d < 0, and e> 0.
51. (A) Since the slope of the tangent to the curve is the slope of the normal is

54. (E) Since f ′ < 0 on 5 ≤ x < 7, the function decreases as it approaches the right endpoint.
55. (B) For x < 5, f ′ > 0, so f is increasing; for x > 5, f is decreasing.
56. (D) The graph of f being concave downward implies that f ″ < 0, which implies that f ′ is decreasing.
57. (D) Speed is the magnitude of velocity; at t = 3, speed = 10 ft/sec.
58. (D) Speed increases from 0 at t = 2 to 10 at t = 3; it is constant or decreasing elsewhere.
59. (E) Acceleration is positive when the velocity increases.
60. (D) Acceleration is undefined when velocity is not differentiable. Here that occurs at t = 1, 2, 3.
61. (A) Acceleration is the derivative of velocity. Since the velocity is linear, its derivative is its slope.

y − 1 = 3(x − 1) or y = 3x + 2.
At x = −1, the equation is
y + 1 = 3(x + 1) or y = 3x + 2.
65. (C) Let the tangent to the parabola from (3, 5) meet the curve at (x1, y1). Its equation is y − 5 = 2x1 (x − 3). Since the point (x1, y1) is on both the tangent and the parabola, we solve simultaneously:
y1 − 5 = 2x1 (x1 − 3) and
The points of tangency are (5, 25) and (1, 1). The slopes, which equal 2x1, are 10 and 2.

78. (D) See Answer 68.
79. (D) At x = a, f ′ changes from increasing (f ″ > 0) to decreasing (f ″ < 0). Thus f changes from concave upward to concave downward, and therefore has a point of inflection at x = a. Note that f is differentiable at a (because f ′(a) exists) and therefore continuous at a.

84. (B) Maximum acceleration occurs when the derivative (slope) of velocity is greatest.
85. (B) The object changes direction only when velocity changes sign. Velocity changes sign from negative to positive at t = 5.
86. (D) From the graph, f ′(2) = 3, and we are told the line passes through (2,10). We therefore have f (x) 10 + 3(x − 2) = 3x + 4.
87. (C) At x = 1 and 3, f ′(x) = 0; therefore f has horizontal tangents.
For x < 1, f ′ > 0; therefore f is increasing.
For x > 1, f ′ < 0, so f is decreasing.
For x < 2, f ′ is decreasing, so f ″ < 0 and the graph of f is concave downward.
For x > 2, f ′ is increasing, so f ″ > 0 and the graph of f is concave upward.

2. (A) Since v > 0 for 0 t 2, the distance is equal to
3. (E) The answer is 8. Since the particle reverses direction when t = 2, and v > 0 for t > 2 but v < 0 for t < 2, therefore, the total distance is
4. (E) so there is no change in position.

20. (A) Be careful! The number of cars is to be measured over a distance of x (not 20) mi. The answer to the question is a function, not a number. Note that choice (C) gives the total number of cars on the entire 20-mi stretch.
21. (C) Since the strip of the city shown in the figure is at a distance r mi from the highway, it is mi long and its area is The strip’s population is approximately 2(12 − 2r) Δr. The total population of the entire city is twice the integral as it includes both halves of the city.
22. (C)
The population equals ∑ (area · density). We partition the interval [0,10] along a radius from the center of town into 5 equal subintervals each of width Δr = 2 mi. We will divide Winnipeg into 5 rings. Each has area equal to (circumference × width), so the area is 2πrk Δr or 4πrk. The population in the ring is
(4πrk)· (density at rk) = 4πrk · f (rk).
A Riemann sum, using left-hand values, is 4π · 0 · 50 + 4π · 2 · 45 + 4π · 4 · 40 + 4π · 6 · 30 + 4π · 8 · 15 = 4π(90 + 160 + 180 + 120) 6912 hundred people—or about 691,200 people.

Since its temperature was 160°F when placed in the refrigerator, then 20 min later it is (160 − 89.7)°F or about 70°F. Note that the temperature of the refrigerator (45°F) is not used in answering the question because it is already “built into” the cooling rate.
25. (A) Let T be the number of weeks required to release 9 tons. We can use parts to integrate then substitute the limits. We must then set the resulting expression equal to 9 and solve for T. A faster, less painful alternative is to use a graphing calculator to solve the equation

1. (C) v(t) = 2t2 − t + C; v(1) = 3; so C = 2.
2. (B) If a(t) = 20t3 − 6t, then
v(t) = 5t4 − 3t2 + C1,
s(t) = t5 − t3 + C1 t + C2,
Since
s(−1) = −1 + 1 − C1 + C2 = 2
and
s(1) = 1 − 1 + C1 + C2 = 4,
therefore
2C2 = 6, C2, = 3,
C1 = 1.
So
v(t) = 5t4 − 3t2 + 1.
3. (D) From Answer 2, s(t) = t5 − t3 + t + 3, so s(0) = C2 = 3.
4. (B) Since a(t) = −32, v(t) = −32t + 40, and the height of the stone s(t) = −16t2 + 40t + C. When the stone hits the ground, 4 sec later, s(t) = 0, so
5. (C) From Answer 4
s(t) = −16t2 + 40t + 96.
Then
s ′(t) = −32t + 40,
which is zero if t = 5/4, and that yields maximum height, since s ″(t) = −32.
6. (E) The velocity v(t) of the car is linear, since its acceleration is constant and
7. (B) Since v = 100 − 20t, s = 100t − 10t2 + C with s(0) = 0. So s(1) = 100 − 10 = 90 ft.

11. (A) Integrating yields + C or y2 = x2 + 2C or y2 = x2 + C ′, where we have replaced the arbitrary constant 2C by C ′.
12. (C) For initial point (−2,1), x2 − y2 = 3. Rewriting the d.e. y dy = x dx as reveals that the derivative does not exist when y = 0, which occurs at Since the particular solution must be differentiable in an interval containing x = −2, the domain is
13. (E) We separate variables. The initial point yields ln hence c = −2. With y > 0, the particular solution is ln
14. (C) We separate variables. The particular solution is −e−y = x − 2.
15. (B) The general solution is when x = 4 yields C = 0.
16. (E) Since it follows that
ln y = ln x + C or ln y = ln x + ln k;
so y = kx.
17. (E) hence the general solution is y = kex, k ≠ 0.
18. (A) We rewrite and separate variables, getting The general solution is
19. (C) We are given that The general solution is ln |y| = 3 ln |x| + C.
Thus, |y| = c |x3 |; y = ±c x3. Since y = 1 when x = 1, we get c = 1.
20. (E) The d.e. reveals that the derivative does not exist when x = 0. Since the particular solution must be differentiable in an interval containing initial value x = 1, the domain is x > 0.
21. (E) The general solution is y = k ln |x| + C, and the particular solution is y = 2 ln |x| + 2.
22. (D) We carefully(!) draw a curve for a solution to the d.e. represented by the slope field. It will be the graph of a member of the family y = sin x + C. At the right we have superimposed the graph of the particular solution y = sin x − 0.5.
23. (B)
It’s easy to see that the answer must be choice (A), (B), or (C), because the slope field depends only on x: all the slope segments for a given x are parallel. Also, the solution curves in the slope field are all concave up, as they are only for choices (A) and (B). Finally, the solution curves all have a minimum at x = 2, which is true only for differential equation (B).
24. (E) The solution curve is y = tan x, which we can obtain from the differential equation y ′ = 1 + y2 with the condition y(0) = 0 as follows:
Since y(0) = 0, C = 0. Verify that (A) through (D) are incorrect.
NOTE: In matching slope fields and differential equations in Questions 25–29, keep in mind that if the slope segments along a vertical line are all parallel, signifying equal slopes for a fixed x, then the differential equation can be written as y ′ = f (x). Replace “vertical” by “horizontal” and “x” by “ y” in the preceding sentence to obtain a differential equation of the form y ′ = g(y).
25. (B) The slope field for y ′ = y must by II; it is the only one whose slopes are equal along a horizontal line.
26. (D) Of the four remaining slope fields, IV is the only one whose slopes are not equal along either a vertical or a horizontal line (the segments are not parallel). Its d.e. therefore cannot be either of type y ′ = f (x) or y ′ = g(y). The d.e. must be implicitly defined—that is, of the form y ′ = F(x,y). So the answer here is IV.
27. (C) The remaining slope fields, I, III, and V, all have d.e.’s of the type y ′ = f (x). The curves “lurking” in III are trigonometric curves—not so in I and V.
28. (A) Given y ′ = 2x, we immediately obtain the general solution, a family of parabolas, y = x2 + C. (Trace the parabola in I through (0, 0), for example.)
29. (E) V is the only slope field still unassigned! Furthermore, the slopes “match” e−x2: the slopes are equal “about” the y-axis; slopes are very small when x is close to −2 and 2; and e−x2 is a maximum at x = 0.
30. (A) From Answer 25, we know that the d.e. for slope field II is y ′ = y. The general solution is y = cex. For a solution curve to pass through point (0, −1), we have −1 = ce0; and c = −1.

32. (B) We want to compare the true value of y(1.2) to the estimated value of 5.21 obtained using Euler’s method in Solution 31. Solving the d.e. yields and initial condition y(1) = 5 means that or C = 4.5. Hence + 4.5 = 5.22. The error is 5.22−5.21 = 0.01.
33. (A) Slopes depend only on the value of y, and the slope field suggests that y ′ = 0 whenever y = 0 or y = −2.
34. (D) The slope field suggests that the solution function increases (or decreases) without bound as x increases, but approaches y = 1 as a horizontal asymptote as x decreases.
35. (D) We separate variables to get We integrate:
With t = 0 and s = 1, C = 0. When we get
36. (B) Since and ln R = ct + C. When t = 0, R = R0; so ln R0 = C or ln R = ct + ln R0. Thus
ln R − ln R0 = ct; ln
37. (D) The question gives rise to the differential equation where P = 2P0 when t = 50. We seek for t = 75. We get ln with ln 2 = 50k; then
38. (A) We let S equal the amount present at time t; using S = 40 when t = 0 yields ln Since, when t = 2, S = 10, we get
39. (A) We replace g(x) by y and then solve the equation We use the constraints given to find the particular solution
40. (C) The general solution of is ln y = x + C or y = cex. For a solution to pass through (2, 3), we have 3 = ce2 and c = 3/e2 0.406.
41. (C) At a point of intersection, y ′ = x + y and x + y = 0. So y ′ = 0, which implies that y has a critical point at the intersection. Since y ″ = 1 + y ′ = 1 + (x + y) = 1 + 0 = 1, y ″ > 0 and the function has a local minimum at the point of intersection. [See Figure N9–5, showing the slope field for y ′= x + y and the curve y = ex − x − 1 that has a local minimum at (0, 0).]
42. (A) Although there is no elementary function (one made up of polynomial, trigonometric, or exponential functions or their inverses) that is an anti-derivative of F ′(x) = e−x2, we know from the FTC, since F(0) = 0, that

Part A
1. (a)
(b) It appears that the rate of change of f, while negative, is increasing. This implies that the graph of f is concave upward.
(c) L = 7.6(0.7) + 5.7(0.3) + 4.2(0.5) + 3.1(0.6) + 2.2(0.4) = 11.87.
(d) Using disks ΔV = πr2 Δx. One possible answer uses the left endpoints of the subintervals as values of r:
V ≈ π(7.6)2 (0.7) + π(5.7)2 (0.3) + π(4.2)2 (0.5) + π(3.1)2 (0.6) + π(2.2)2 (0.4)
2. (a) 12y0 + 0.3 = 24 yields y0 1.975.
(b) Replace x by 0.3 in the equation of the curve:
The calculator’s solution to three decimal places is y0 = 1.990.
(c) Since the true value of y0 at x = 0.3 exceeds the approximation, conclude that the given curve is concave up near x = 0. (Therefore, it is above the line tangent at x = 0.)
3. Graph f ′(x) = 2x sin x − e(−x2) + 1 in [−7, 7] × [−10, 10].
(a) Since f ′ is even and f contains (0, 0), f is odd and its graph is symmetric about the origin.
(b) Since f is decreasing when f ′ < 0, f decreases on the intervals (a, c) and (j, 1). Use the calculator to solve f′ (x) = 0. Conclude that f decreases on −6.202 < x < −3.294 and (symmetrically) on 3.294 < x < 6.202.
(c) f has a relative maximum at x = q if f ′(q) = 0 and if f changes from increasing (f ′ > 0) to decreasing (f ′ < 0) at q. There are two relative maxima here:
at x = a = −6.202 and at x = j = 3.294.
(d) f has a point of inflection when the graph of f changes its concavity; that is, when f′ changes from increasing to decreasing, as it does at points d and h, or when f′ changes from decreasing to increasing, as it does at points b, g, and k. So there are five points of inflection altogether.

5. See the figure, where R is the point (a, b), and seek a such that
6. Graph y = sin 2x in [−1, 3.2] × [−1, 1]. Note that y = f ″.
(a) The graph of f is concave downward where f ″ is negative, namely, on (b, d). Use the calculator to solve sin 2x = 0, obtaining b = 1.651 and d = 2.651. The answer to (a) is therefore 1.651 < x < 2.651.
(b) f ′ has a relative minimum at x = d, because f ″ equals 0 at d, is less than 0 on (b, d), and is greater than 0 on (d, g). Thus f ′ has a relative minimum (from part a) at x = 2.651.
(c) The graph of f ′ has a point of inflection wherever its second derivative f ″′ changes from positive to negative or vice versa. This is equivalent to f ″ changing from increasing to decreasing (as at a and g) or vice versa (as at c). Therefore, the graph of f ′ has three points of inflection on [− 1, 3.2].

(ii) The pile was largest when the letters stopped piling up, at t = 2 P.M.
(iii) The number of letters in the pile is represented by the area of the small trapezoid above the horizontal line:
(iv) The pile began to diminish after 2 P.M., when letters were processed at a rate faster than they arrived, and vanished when the area of the shaded triangle represented 1500 letters. At 5 P.M. this area is letters, so the pile vanished shortly after 5 P.M.
9. Draw a vertical element of area as shown below.

13. (a) The given series is alternating. Since
Since ln x is an increasing function,
The series therefore converges.
(b) Since the series converges by the Alternating Series Test, the error in using the first n terms for the sum of the whole series is less than the absolute value of the (n + 1)st term. Thus the error is less than Solve for n using

(b) Since c = 4 and
Solving for y yields
(c) means 1 + 4 · 2−t = 1.25, so t = 4.

16. (a) See graph.
(b) You want to maximize
See signs analysis.
The maximum y occurs when t = 1, because y changes from increasing to decreasing there.
(c) Since x(1) = 4arctan 1 = π and the coordinates of the highest point are (π,6).
Since This vector is shown on the graph.
(d) Thus the particle approaches the point (2π,0).
17. (a) To find the smallest rectangle with sides parallel to the x- and y-axes, you need a rectangle formed by vertical and horizontal tangents as shown in the figure. The vertical tangents are at the x-intercepts, x = ±3. The horizontal tangents are at the points where y (not r) is a maximum. You need, therefore, to maximize
Use the calculator to find that when θ = 0.7854. Therefore, y = 1.414, so the desired rectangle has dimensions 6 × 2.828.
(b) Since the polar formula for the area is the area of R (enclosed by r) is which is 14.137.
Part B
18. The graph shown below satisfies all five conditions. So do many others!
19. (a) f′ is defined for all x in the interval. Since f is therefore differentiable, it must also be continuous.
(b) Because f′ (2) = 0 and f′ changes from negative to positive there, f has a relative minimum at x = 2. To the left of x = 9, f′ is negative, so f is decreasing as it approaches that endpoint and reaches another relative minimum there.
(c) Because f′ is negative to the right of x = −3, f decreases from its left end-point, indicating a relative max there. Also, f′ (2) = 0 and f′ changes from positive to negative there, so f has a relative minimum at x = 7.
(d) Note that f (7) − f (−3) = Since there is more area above the x-axis than below the x-axis on [−3,7], the integral is positive and f (7) − f (−3) > 0. This implies that f (7) > f (−3), and that the absolute maximum occurs at x = 7.
(e) At x = 2 and also at x = 6, f′ changes from increasing to decreasing, indicating that f changes from concave upward to concave downward at each. At x = 4, f′ changes from decreasing to increasing, indicating that f changes from concave downward to concave upward there. Hence the graph of f has points of inflection at x = 2, 4, and 6.

4. (B)
5. (B) h ′(3) = g ′(f (3)) · f ′(3) = g ′(4) ·
6. (E) Since f ′(x) exists for all x, it must equal 0 for any x0 for which f is a relative maximum, and it must also change sign from positive to negative as x increases through x0. For the given derivative, no x satisfies both of these conditions.
7. (E) By the Quotient Rule (formula (6)),
8. (A) Here, f ′(x) is e −x (1 − x); f has maximum value when x = 1.
9. (A) Note that (1) on a horizontal line the slope segments are all parallel, so the slopes there are all the same and must depend only on y; (2) along the x-axis (where y = 0) the slopes are infinite; and (3) as y increases, the slope decreases.
10. (E) Acceleration is the derivative (the slope) of velocity v; v is largest on 8 < t < 9.
11. (C) Velocity v is the derivative of position; because v > 0 until t = 6 and v < 0 thereafter, the position increases until t = 6 and then decreases; since the area bounded by the curve above the axis is larger than the area below the axis, the object is farthest from its starting point at t = 6.
12. (D) From t = 5 to t = 8, the displacement (the integral of velocity) can be found by evaluating definite integrals based on the areas of two triangles:
Thus, if K is the object’s position at t = 5, then K − 3 = 10 at t = 8.

17. (B) Implicit differentiation yields 2yy ′ = 1; so At a vertical tangent, is undefined; y must therefore equal 0 and the numerator be non-zero. The original equation with y = 0 is 0 = x − x3, which has three solutions.

21. (A) Solve the differential equation by separation of variables: yields y = ce2x. The initial condition yields 1 = ce2 · 2; so c = e −4 and y = e2x−4.
22. (C) Changes in values of f ″ show that f ″′ is constant; hence f ″ is linear, f ′ is quadratic, and f must be cubic.
23. (B) By implicit differentiation, so the equation of the tangent line at (3,0) is y = −9(x−3).
24. (A)
25. (D) The graph shown has the x-axis as a horizontal asymptote.
26. (B) Since to render f (x) continuous at x = 1 f (1) must be defined to be 1.
27. (B) f ′(x) = 15x4 − 30x2; f ″(x) = 60x3 − 60x = 60x(x + 1)(x − 1); this equals 0 when x = −1, 0, or 1. Here are the signs within the intervals:
The graph of f changes concavity at x = −1, 0, and 1.
28. (C) Note that so f has a critical value at x = −4. As x passes through −4, the sign of f ′ changes from − to +, so f has a local minimum at x = −4.
Part B
29. (B) We are given that (1) f ′(a) > 0; (2)f ″(a) < 0; and (3) G ′(a) < 0. Since G ′(x) = 2 f (x) · f ′(x), therefore G ′(a) = 2f (a) · f (a). Conditions (1) and (3) imply that (4)f (a) < 0. Since G ″(x) = 2[f (x) · f ″ (x) + (f ′(x))2], therefore G″(a) = 2[f (a)f ″ (a) + (f′ (a))2]. Then the sign of G ″(a) is 2[(−) · (−) + (+)] or positive, where the minus signs in the parentheses follow from conditions (4) and (2).
30. (E) Since it equals 0 for When x = 3, c = 9; this yields a minimum since f ″(3) > 0.
31. (E) Use your calculator to graph velocity against time. Speed is the absolute value of velocity. The greatest deviation from v = 0 is at t = c. With a calculator, c = 9.538.
32. (D) Because f ′ changes from increasing to decreasing, f ″ changes from positive to negative and thus the graph of f changes concavity.
33. (D) We evaluate this definite integral by finding the area of a trapezoid (negative) and a triangle: so the tangent line passes through the point (3,−2). The slope of the line is H ′(3) = f (3) = 2, so an equation of the line is y − (−2) = 2(x − 3).

Q(t) = Q0(0.8)t.

1. (C) v(t) = 2t2 − t + C; v(1) = 3; so C = 2.
2. (B) If a(t) = 20t3 − 6t, then
v(t) = 5t4 − 3t2 + C1,

Since
s(−1) = −1 + 1 − C1 + C2 = 2
and
s(1) = 1 − 1 + C1 + C2 = 4,
therefore
2C2 = 6, C2, = 3,
C1 = 1.
So
v(t) = 5t4 − 3t2 + 1.

5. (C) From Answer 4
s(t) = −16t2 + 40t + 96.

20. (E) The d.e. reveals that the derivative does not exist when x = 0. Since the particular solution must be differentiable in an interval containing initial value x = 1, the domain is x > 0.

It’s easy to see that the answer must be choice (A), (B), or (C), because the slope field depends only on x: all the slope segments for a given x are parallel. Also, the solution curves in the slope field are all concave up, as they are only for choices (A) and (B). Finally, the solution curves all have a minimum at x = 2, which is true only for differential equation (B).
24. (E) The solution curve is y = tan x, which we can obtain from the differential equation y ′ = 1 + y2 with the condition y(0) = 0 as follows:
Since y(0) = 0, C = 0. Verify that (A) through (D) are incorrect.
NOTE: In matching slope fields and differential equations in Questions 25–29, keep in mind that if the slope segments along a vertical line are all parallel, signifying equal slopes for a fixed x, then the differential equation can be written as y ′ = f (x). Replace “vertical” by “horizontal” and “x” by “ y” in the preceding sentence to obtain a differential equation of the form y ′ = g(y).
25. (B) The slope field for y ′ = y must by II; it is the only one whose slopes are equal along a horizontal line.
26. (D) Of the four remaining slope fields, IV is the only one whose slopes are not equal along either a vertical or a horizontal line (the segments are not parallel). Its d.e. therefore cannot be either of type y ′ = f (x) or y ′ = g(y). The d.e. must be implicitly defined—that is, of the form y ′ = F(x,y). So the answer here is IV.
27. (C) The remaining slope fields, I, III, and V, all have d.e.’s of the type y ′ = f (x). The curves “lurking” in III are trigonometric curves—not so in I and V.
28. (A) Given y ′ = 2x, we immediately obtain the general solution, a family of parabolas, y = x2 + C. (Trace the parabola in I through (0, 0), for example.)
29. (E) V is the only slope field still unassigned! Furthermore, the slopes “match” e−x2: the slopes are equal “about” the y-axis; slopes are very small when x is close to −2 and 2; and e−x2 is a maximum at x = 0.
30. (A) From Answer 25, we know that the d.e. for slope field II is y ′ = y. The general solution is y = cex. For a solution curve to pass through point (0, −1), we have −1 = ce0; and c = −1.

32. (B) We want to compare the true value of y(1.2) to the estimated value of 5.21 obtained using Euler’s method in Solution 31. Solving the d.e. yields and initial condition y(1) = 5 means that or C = 4.5. Hence + 4.5 = 5.22. The error is 5.22−5.21 = 0.01.
33. (A) Slopes depend only on the value of y, and the slope field suggests that y ′ = 0 whenever y = 0 or y = −2.
34. (D) The slope field suggests that the solution function increases (or decreases) without bound as x increases, but approaches y = 1 as a horizontal asymptote as x decreases.
35. (D) We separate variables to get We integrate:

38. (A) We let S equal the amount present at time t; using S = 40 when t = 0 yields ln Since, when t = 2, S = 10, we get

40. (C) The general solution of is ln y = x + C or y = cex. For a solution to pass through (2, 3), we have 3 = ce2 and c = 3/e2 0.406.
41. (C) At a point of intersection, y ′ = x + y and x + y = 0. So y ′ = 0, which implies that y has a critical point at the intersection. Since y ″ = 1 + y ′ = 1 + (x + y) = 1 + 0 = 1, y ″ > 0 and the function has a local minimum at the point of intersection. [See Figure N9–5, showing the slope field for y ′= x + y and the curve y = ex − x − 1 that has a local minimum at (0, 0).]
42. (A) Although there is no elementary function (one made up of polynomial, trigonometric, or exponential functions or their inverses) that is an anti-derivative of F ′(x) = e−x2, we know from the FTC, since F(0) = 0, that

(b) Replace x by 0.3 in the equation of the curve:
The calculator’s solution to three decimal places is y0 = 1.990.
(c) Since the true value of y0 at x = 0.3 exceeds the approximation, conclude that the given curve is concave up near x = 0. (Therefore, it is above the line tangent at x = 0.)
3. Graph f ′(x) = 2x sin x − e(−x2) + 1 in [−7, 7] × [−10, 10].
(a) Since f ′ is even and f contains (0, 0), f is odd and its graph is symmetric about the origin.
(b) Since f is decreasing when f ′ < 0, f decreases on the intervals (a, c) and (j, 1). Use the calculator to solve f′ (x) = 0. Conclude that f decreases on −6.202 < x < −3.294 and (symmetrically) on 3.294 < x < 6.202.
(c) f has a relative maximum at x = q if f ′(q) = 0 and if f changes from increasing (f ′ > 0) to decreasing (f ′ < 0) at q. There are two relative maxima here:
at x = a = −6.202 and at x = j = 3.294.
(d) f has a point of inflection when the graph of f changes its concavity; that is, when f′ changes from increasing to decreasing, as it does at points d and h, or when f′ changes from decreasing to increasing, as it does at points b, g, and k. So there are five points of inflection altogether.
4. In the graph below, C is the piece of the curve lying in the first quadrant. S is the region bounded by the curve C and the coordinate axes.
(a) Graph in [0,3] × [0,5]. Since you want dy/dx, the slope of the tangent, where y = 1, use the calculator to solve
(storing the answer at B). Then evaluate the slope of the tangent to C at y = 1:
f ′(B) ≈ −21.182.
(b) Since ΔA = yΔx, A =
(c) When S is rotated about the x-axis, its volume can be obtained using disks:
5. See the figure, where R is the point (a, b), and seek a such that
6. Graph y = sin 2x in [−1, 3.2] × [−1, 1]. Note that y = f ″.
(a) The graph of f is concave downward where f ″ is negative, namely, on (b, d). Use the calculator to solve sin 2x = 0, obtaining b = 1.651 and d = 2.651. The answer to (a) is therefore 1.651 < x < 2.651.
(b) f ′ has a relative minimum at x = d, because f ″ equals 0 at d, is less than 0 on (b, d), and is greater than 0 on (d, g). Thus f ′ has a relative minimum (from part a) at x = 2.651.
(c) The graph of f ′ has a point of inflection wherever its second derivative f ″′ changes from positive to negative or vice versa. This is equivalent to f ″ changing from increasing to decreasing (as at a and g) or vice versa (as at c). Therefore, the graph of f ′ has three points of inflection on [− 1, 3.2].
7. Graph f (x) = cos x and g(x) = x2 − 1 in [−2, 2] × [−2,2], Here, y1 = f and y2 = g.
(a) Solve cos x = x2 − 1 to find the two points of intersection: (1.177,0.384) and (−1.177,0.384).
(b) Since ΔA = (y1 − y2) Δx = [f (x) − g(x)] Δx, the area A bounded by the two curves is
8. (a) Use the Trapezoid Rule, with h = 60 min:
(b) Draw a horizontal line at y = 20 (as shown on the graph below), representing the rate at which letters are processed then.
(i) Letters began to pile up when they arrived at a rate greater than that at which they were being processed, that is, at t = 10 A.M.
(ii) The pile was largest when the letters stopped piling up, at t = 2 P.M.
(iii) The number of letters in the pile is represented by the area of the small trapezoid above the horizontal line:
(iv) The pile began to diminish after 2 P.M., when letters were processed at a rate faster than they arrived, and vanished when the area of the shaded triangle represented 1500 letters. At 5 P.M. this area is letters, so the pile vanished shortly after 5 P.M.
9. Draw a vertical element of area as shown below.
(a) Let a represent the x-value of the positive point of intersection of y = x4 and y = sin x. Solving a4 = sin a with the calculator, we find a = 0.9496.
(b) Elements of volume are triangular prisms with height h = 3 and base b = (sinx − x4), as shown below.
(c) When R is rotated around the x-axis, the element generates washers. If r1, and r2 are the radii of the larger and smaller disks, respectively, then
10. The figure above shows an elliptical cross section of the tank. Its equation is
(a) The volume of the tank, using disks, is where the ellipse’s symmetry about the x-axis has been exploited. The equation of the ellipse is equivalent to x2 = 6.25(100 − y2), so
Use the calculator to evaluate this integral, storing the answer as V to have it available for part (b).
The capacity of the tank is 7.48V, or 196,000 gal of water, rounded to the nearest 1000 gal.
(b) Let k be the y-coordinate of the water level when the tank is one-fourth full. Then
and the depth of the water is k + 10.
11. (a) Let h represent the depth of the water, as shown.
Then h is the altitude of an equilateral triangle, and the base
The volume of water is

(b) Let x represent the length of one of the sides, as shown.
The bases of the trapezoid are 24 − 2x and 24 − 2x + and the height is
The volume of the trough (in in.3) is given by
Since the maximum volume is attained by folding the metal 8 inches from tne edges.
12. (a) Both π/4 and the expression in brackets yield 0.7853981634, which is accurate to ten decimal places.
(b)
(c) this agrees with the value of to four decimal places.
(d) The series
converges very slowly. Example 56 evaluated the sum of 60 terms of the series for π (which equals 4 tan−1 1). To four decimal places, we get π = 3.1249, which yields 0.7812 for π/4—not accurate even to two decimal places.
13. (a) The given series is alternating. Since
Since ln x is an increasing function,
The series therefore converges.
(b) Since the series converges by the Alternating Series Test, the error in using the first n terms for the sum of the whole series is less than the absolute value of the (n + 1)st term. Thus the error is less than Solve for n using
The given series converges very slowly!
(c) The series is conditionally convergent. The given alternating series converges since the nth term approaches 0 and However, the nonnegative series diverges by the Integral Test, since
14. (a) Solve by separation of variables:
Let c = e−10c; then
Now use initial condition y = 2 at t = 0:
and the other condition, y = 5 at t = 2, gives
(b) Since c = 4 and
Solving for y yields
(c) means 1 + 4 · 2−t = 1.25, so t = 4.
(d) so the value of y approaches 10.
15. (a) Since Since y = 18 − 2 · 22 = 10, P is at (2,10).
(b) Since Since Therefore
(c) Let D = the object’s distance from the origin. Then
(d) The object hits the x-axis when y = 18 − 2x2 = 0, or x = 3. Since
(e) The length of the arc of y = 18 − 2x2 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 3 is given by
16. (a) See graph.
(b) You want to maximize
See signs analysis.
The maximum y occurs when t = 1, because y changes from increasing to decreasing there.
(c) Since x(1) = 4arctan 1 = π and the coordinates of the highest point are (π,6).
Since This vector is shown on the graph.
(d) Thus the particle approaches the point (2π,0).
17. (a) To find the smallest rectangle with sides parallel to the x- and y-axes, you need a rectangle formed by vertical and horizontal tangents as shown in the figure. The vertical tangents are at the x-intercepts, x = ±3. The horizontal tangents are at the points where y (not r) is a maximum. You need, therefore, to maximize
Use the calculator to find that when θ = 0.7854. Therefore, y = 1.414, so the desired rectangle has dimensions 6 × 2.828.
(b) Since the polar formula for the area is the area of R (enclosed by r) is which is 14.137.
Part B
18. The graph shown below satisfies all five conditions. So do many others!
19. (a) f′ is defined for all x in the interval. Since f is therefore differentiable, it must also be continuous.
(b) Because f′ (2) = 0 and f′ changes from negative to positive there, f has a relative minimum at x = 2. To the left of x = 9, f′ is negative, so f is decreasing as it approaches that endpoint and reaches another relative minimum there.
(c) Because f′ is negative to the right of x = −3, f decreases from its left end-point, indicating a relative max there. Also, f′ (2) = 0 and f′ changes from positive to negative there, so f has a relative minimum at x = 7.
(d) Note that f (7) − f (−3) = Since there is more area above the x-axis than below the x-axis on [−3,7], the integral is positive and f (7) − f (−3) > 0. This implies that f (7) > f (−3), and that the absolute maximum occurs at x = 7.
(e) At x = 2 and also at x = 6, f′ changes from increasing to decreasing, indicating that f changes from concave upward to concave downward at each. At x = 4, f′ changes from decreasing to increasing, indicating that f changes from concave downward to concave upward there. Hence the graph of f has points of inflection at x = 2, 4, and 6.
20. Draw a sketch of the region bounded above by y1 = 8 − 2x2 and below by y2 = x2 − 4, and inscribe a rectangle in this region as described in the question. If (x, y1) and (x, y2) are the vertices of the rectangle in quadrants I and IV, respectively, then the area
A = 2x (y1 − y2) = 2x(12 − 3x2), or A(x) = 24x − 6x3.
Then A′ (x) = 24 − 18x2 = 6(4 − 3x2), which equals 0 when Check to verify that A ″ (x) < 0 at this point. This assures that this value of x yields maximum area, which is given by

(b) Note that v > 0 for all t. Let s be the required distance traveled (as v decreases from 20 to 5); then
where, when v = 20, t = 0. Also, when v = 5, use (2) to get or − ln 4 = −2t. So t = ln 2. Evaluating s in (3) gives
27. Let (x,y) be the point in the first quadrant where the line parallel to the x-axis meets the parabola. The area of the triangle is given by
A = xy = x(27 − x2) = 27x − x3 for 0 ≤ x ≤
Then A′ (x) = 27 − 3x2 = 3(3 + x)(3 − x), and A′ (x) = 0 at x = 3.
Since A′ changes from positive to negative at x = 3, the area reaches its maximum there.
The maximum area is A(3) = 3(27 − 32) = 54.

7. (E) By the Quotient Rule (formula (6)),
8. (A) Here, f ′(x) is e −x (1 − x); f has maximum value when x = 1.
9. (A) Note that (1) on a horizontal line the slope segments are all parallel, so the slopes there are all the same and must depend only on y; (2) along the x-axis (where y = 0) the slopes are infinite; and (3) as y increases, the slope decreases.
10. (E) Acceleration is the derivative (the slope) of velocity v; v is largest on 8 < t < 9.
11. (C) Velocity v is the derivative of position; because v > 0 until t = 6 and v < 0 thereafter, the position increases until t = 6 and then decreases; since the area bounded by the curve above the axis is larger than the area below the axis, the object is farthest from its starting point at t = 6.

The graph of f changes concavity at x = −1, 0, and 1.
28. (C) Note that so f has a critical value at x = −4. As x passes through −4, the sign of f ′ changes from − to +, so f has a local minimum at x = −4.

Since G ″(x) = 2[f (x) · f ″ (x) + (f ′(x))2], therefore G″(a) = 2[f (a)f ″ (a) + (f′ (a))2]. Then the sign of G ″(a) is 2[(−) · (−) + (+)] or positive, where the minus signs in the parentheses follow from conditions (4) and (2).
