Yay for trig equations.... lol f(x) = 2sec(x) + tan(x) f'(x) = 2sec(x)tan(x) + sec^2(x) Set this equal to zero to get the critical numbers 2sec(x)tan(x) + sec^2(x) = 0 You can easily factor out sec(x) to get sec(x)(2tan(x) + sec(x)) = 0 which gives us 2 equations sec(x) = 0 which isn't possible since sec(x) is never equal to zero 2tan(x) + sec(x) = 0 by converting to sines and cosines we get (2sin(x))/cos(x) + 1/cos(x) = 0 (2sin(x) + 1)/cos(x) since only the numerator matters for finding zeroes we now have 2sin(x) + 1 = 0 2sin(x) = -1 sin(x) = -1/2 Solve for x to get that our critical numbers are 7pi/6 and 11pi/6.
wow thank you :)
that was quick
You had it posted in the last question so i had already written that up :D
ok last 2
@jziggy
well, since f'(4) doesn't equal zero that would mean it isn't a critical number and therefore it can't be a minimum,maximum or point of inflection
At least I think.... haven't seen a problem in this format for a while haha
ok, so that narrows it down to, none right?
No, wait...
ok
Ok, I made a mistake in that
oh :P
if the second derivative = 0 and is less than 0 on one side and greater than zero on the other side it's an inflection point :)
ok sweet!
last one :P
@hilbertboy96 Thank you for the help...just mention me in a question sometime on physics for english and i will be able to help for sure
Again with the problems I've haven't done in a long time and this one looks complicated xD So, we want to maximize 2xy + 3xy + 3xy + 2xy which is equal to 10xy
yes :)
Given the constraint, 8y +13x = 1040
solving for y gives us 8y = 1040 - 13x y = (1040 - 13x)/8
hmmm it looks like 5x by 2x
that would give us 10 x
I don't trust pictures to be to scale :p
