Find the equation for the funciton f that has the given derivative and whose graph passes through the given point.
f'(x) = 2 sin (4x) Point is \[(\pi/4, -17/2)\]
Hm, integrate the function?
good idea then find C by replacement
Yes, since \(x\) and \(y\) are given.
well integrating would be -2cos(4x) + c right?
f(x)=-0.5cos(4x)+C and sub that point into it
then u can find C
ah okay
\[\frac{-\cos(4(\pi/4))}{2} \] which would be \[\frac{-\cos(4\pi/16)}{2}\]???
\[\frac{-\cos4(−17/2)}{2} = \frac{-\cos4(−68/8)}{2} \] ???
err forget that 4 before the (-68/8) :(
I think that you are confused; one value is \(x\) and the other is \(y\) you can't sub it into the same thing.
Yeah I'm konfused, Idk what I'm doing :(
so I ijust use the first point then? pi/4
\[-\frac{17}{2} =-0.5\cos\left(4*\frac{\pi}{4}\right) +C\]
Solve for \(C\)
\[2\int sin(4x)=\frac{1}{2}\cos(4x)+C\] \[f(x)=\frac{1}{2}\cos(4x)+C\] \[f(\frac{\pi}{4})=\frac{1}{2}\cos(2\pi)+C=-\frac{17}{2}\]
\[\frac{1}{2}+C=-\frac{17}{2}\] \[C=\frac{-17}{2}-\frac{1}{2}=-9\] if i did not mess up
-0.5cos(4*pi/4)+C=-17/2 that is -0.5cos(pi)+C=-17/2 -0.5cos(pi)=0.5 0.5+C=-17/2 C=-9
ho ho ho i did mess up!
twice
So the equation is 12cos(4x)+C or 12cos(4x)+ (-9)?
f(x) = that :P
-0.5cos(4x)+(-9)=f(x)
\[2\int\sin(4x)=-\frac{1}{2}\cos(4x)+C\] and \[f(\frac{\pi}{4})=-\frac{1}{2}\cos(\pi)+C=-\frac{17}{2}\] \[C=-9\]
idk why it said 12cos LOL :( stoopid copy/paste
Thanks all!
i thk it is book's problem -.-
