(a) Find he rae of change of he volume wih respec o he heigh if he radius is consan. (b) Find he rae of change of he volume wih respec o he radius if he heigh is consan.
LINEAR APPROXIMATIONS Noes: The linear approximaion of a funcion f(x) abou a base poin a is L(x) = f(a) + f (a)(x a) The graph of his linear funcion is he line angen o f a x = a. Read pp 89 9. A useful applicaion is o approximae f b is linearizaion near a basepoin, f(x) L(x) if x a. For example sin x x if x 0 + x + x/ if x 0 The change in he funcion f beween x = a and x = a + x can be approximaed b he change in he linear approximaion L(x), f(a + x) f(a) L(a + x) L(a) ( ) This is useful since he righ hand side is paricularl simple o evaluae. Namel, if we denoe he change in f b, equaion (*) reduces o f (a) x ( ) Draw a picure showing and f (a) x. 09. Find he linear approximaion L(x) of he funcion f(x) a he given basepoin x = a.

The rain is raveling a a speed of 60 mi/hr. The engineer applies one se of brakes, which causes him o decelerae a a rae of 0. mi/min for 5 s. He realizes he is no going o make i, so he applies a second se of brakes, which causes he rain o decelerae a a rae of 0. mi/min. Will he srike he barrier? (Hin: careful, rounding can make he difference!) 7.
