Let aa, + a be te point of tangency on te grap of y = + Ten te slope m can be a calculated in two ways: () y = and so m = = () Using te two points a a a + (, 0 ) and aa, + a a + m = = Setting te two equations a a a a equal to eac oter we get ( )( ) equation is given by y 0 ( ) te slope formula yields ( ) a a + = a a a ( ) Solving tis equation for a we obtain a+ a =0 Since a must be in te first quadrant a = Terefore, te tangent line = or y = + 6

4 Calculus Callenge Eam, June Page 4 of 8 [5] 6 Recall te definition of te inverse tangent function: θ = tan t t = tanθ and d Sow tat ( tan t) = + t π π < θ < d d dθ () t = ( tanθ) = sec θ Solving for d θ dθ we obtain =, wic is defined sec θ π π for < θ < Now, dθ d = =, so = ( tan t) = sec θ + tan θ + t + t [6] 7 Consider te grap of te function y = f ( ) sown below to te left Estimate te slope of te grap of f at various points and use tese estimates to sketc te grap of y = f ( ) f ( 5) 05, f ( 5) 05, f ( ), f ( ) 0 (, ) = (,6), f ( ) for = for (, ), f ( ) = 05 for, so te grap is sown above to te rigt 4 [6] 8 Use linear approimation (or differentials) to estimate ( 99) 4 Using linear approimation L( ) = f ( a) + f ( a)( a), we coose f ( ) differentiable everywere, and ( ) ( ) ( ) ( 4 ) L( ) ( ) =, wic is = 4 a = Ten f ( ) = = 6, f ( ) 4, and f = 4 =, and so te linearization of f at a is given by L( ) = 6 + ( ) Finally, f 99 = = = 568 [6] 9 Find te largest interval on wic te grap of te function f ( ) ln ln = is concave up + ln Te domain of f is D f = ( 0, ) f ( ) = and f ( ) = f ( ) = 0 / / + ln = 0 ln= / =e Now, on te interval ( ) / and so by te concavity test f is concave down on ( ) f >, and so by te concavity test f is concave up on ( /, ) we ave ( ) 0 <, 0,e we ave f ( ) 0 0,e However, on te interval ( e /, ) e

(Hint: Vcone = π r ) r We need to maimize V = π r Te rigt diagram sows us tat r and are related troug Pytagoras Teorem r = = 69 Ten te volume can be epressed in only one 69 variable, namely, as V = π ( 69 ) = π π wit [ 0,] Differentiating te 69 equation wit respect to we get V = π π Solving V = 0 for we obtain te two critical numbers =± However, te negative value must be ecluded as only = [ 0,] Te maimum volume must occur at eiter te critical number or an endpoint 494 of te interval We compare V ( 0) = 0, V = π 69 π =, and V ( ) = 0, and conclude tat te maimum volume is π cubic units 9 [8] A particle is moving along te curve f ( ) = As te particle passes troug te point (, f ( ) ), its -coordinate increases at a rate of 5 cm/s How fast is te distance from te particle to te point 0, f ( 0) ( ) canging at tis instant? Let y = and let s denote te distance from te point s = + y Ten, Using te fact tat ( ) y (, y ) to te point ( 0, f ( 0) ) = ( 0,0) = tis equation simplifies to s = + = + 4 We differentiate tis equation wit respect to time t, and obtain ds d d ( ) d We are given s = + = + fact tat distance is positive we calculate d (,9) = 5 cm/s From s = + 4 and te 4 s = + = 90 = 0 Substituting all tese

Tere is a variety of way to estimate te rates asked for dc t= 0 dc t= 60 ( ) C( ) C = = ( ) C( ) C = = Since 05 is not close to 0065 te rate of cange of concentration wit respect to time is not constant (b) Sow tat te rate of cange is rougly proportional to te concentration Write tis relationsip as a differential equation leaving te constant of proportionality, k, undetermined 05 C ( 0) = and 0065 C ( 60) = bot yield quantities close to eac oter, wic indicates tat te rate of cange is rougly proportional to te concentration Terefore, dc = kc for some constant k (c) Solve te differential equation from part (b) and coose te constant of proportionality, k, C 0 = 0 and C 60 = from te table so tat te solution satisfies bot te entries ( ) Write te constant of proportionality accurate to 4 decimal places Te solution to te initial value problem dc kc =, C ( 0) 0 ( ) kt = is C( t) 0e constant of proportionality k, we use te given data ( 60) 60k ln ( / 0) 0454 = e k = Terefore, C( t) 0e = To obtain te 60k C = and solve = 0e for k: t =
