The average value of v(t) on the interval [0,4] is # > Int(60-20*t,t=0..4)/(4-0);\ # or 20. We can see this graphically by: # > plot({60-20*t,20},t=0..4);\ # Note that the area under the average line is exactly the integral of # # the velocity over the interval [0,4]. That is, the distance covered # # in the same interval by traveling at the average velocity is exactly # # the distance traveled. The speed is the absolute value of the # # velocity. The integral of the speed from 0 to 4 will be the total # # distance covered rather than the net distance traveled. # > Int(abs(60-20*t),t=0..4);\ > \ > int(abs(60-20*t),t=0..4);\ # The car's average speed will be # > Int(abs(60-20*t),t=0..4)/4=int(abs(60-20*t),t=0..4)/4;\ # p 12 no 24. # # We are given that # # # > Int(sin(x),x=0..Pi)=2;\ # The point of the problem is that this information and the periodicity # # of the graph of sin and the fact that the graph of cos is just a shift # # of that of sin is all we need to know to do most of these integrals. # # This is a very important idea - using one integral which we know we # # can then calculate many more using symmetry and the basic properties # # of integrals. # > plot({sin(x),cos(x)},x=0..4*Pi);\ > plot( abs(sin(x)) ,x=0..4*Pi);\ # From the graphs we see that the integral from 0 to 1 of sin(x) must # # be half that from 0 to Pi, or 1 and the integral from Pi to 2Pi must # # be -2. # # # # p. 15 no 34 Show # > Int(exp(sin(x)),x=0..2*Pi)<=PI*(1+e); \ > \ # Note from the graph of sin above that for Pi<=x<=2*Pi, sin(x) is # # negative. Thus in that range we have sin(x)<=0 or # # exp(sin(x)<=exp(0)=1. For x between 0 and Pi we have sin(x)<=1 and # # exp(sin(x)<=exp(1)=e. Thus # > Int(exp(sin(x)),x=0..2*Pi)<=Int(e,x=0..Pi)+Int(1,x=Pi..2*Pi);\ # We also want # > Pi*(1+1/e)<=Int(exp(sin(x)),x=0..2*Pi);\ > \ # Since for x from 0 to Pi we have 0<=sin(x) and for x from Pi to 2Pi we # # have -1<=sin(x) we have # > Int(exp(0),x=0..

The graph given is that of the deriviative if G (and # # H). A function is increasing if its derivative is positive so F is # # increasing whenever f is positive, that is when its graph is above the # # x-axis, i.e from -5 to -3 and 1 to 5. A functionhas a local minimum # # as a point at which the deriviative is negative to the left and # # positive to the right. Since f is negative to the left of x=1and # # positive to the right it has a local minimum there. # # # # G achieves its minimum value at x=1 and maximum value at x=-3. At that # # point its value is 3 while at 1 its # # 3-2Pi. The area from 1 to 5 is 4 so the F(5)= 7-2Pi which is less than # # 3. Thus the maximum value is at x=-3. # # Since G and H differ by a constant their maximan and minima occur at # # the same points. The values are easily calculated. # # # # p 35, no1 # # The function f shown has a minimum between 1 and 2 where the sign of # # its derivative changes from negative to positive. This means that the # # second derivative of F changes from negative to positive there - i.e. # # that F has a flex point where its concavity changes from down to up. # # Only Graph A has this property. # # For part (b) if F and g have the same derivative then they differ by a # # constant. If g(0)=2 then since F(0)=0, the graph of g is that of F # # shifted up by 2 units. # # # # p35 no 2 # # # # The critical points of a function are where its derivative does not # # exist or is zero. This makes the critical poits of this f = -5 (end # # point), -3.5, -2,2, 5 (end point). Points of inflection are where the # # sign of the second derivative changes sign from positive to negative # # or negative to positive. The sign of the derivative of f (the second # # derivative of F) changes sign at -3,-2,1, and 3. # # The G(x) given will have the function shown as its second derivative. # # G will be concave up when its second derivative is positive, that is, # # when the function f is positive. #
