Question

Chapter 3.3, Problem 4QQ

(a)

To determine

To Calculate: All the points when f has horizontal tangents.

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 4QQ

The horizontals tangents passes to the points are (0,0) , (2,−4) and (−2,−4) .

Explanation of Solution

Given Information:

The function is f(x)=x4−4x2 .

Formula Used:

Power rule of derivative:

ddxxn=nxn−1

Calculation:

The function is f(x)=x4−4x2 .

Find the derivative.

f′(x)=4x3−8x

Substitute the derivative of the function equal to 0, to find the values of x .

4x3−8x=0

Take 4x common from left hand side.

4x(x2−2)=0

That is,

4x=0 or (x2−2)=0x=0 or x2=2x=0 or x=±2

Substitute 0 for x in the function, to find the value of f(0) .

f(0)=(0)4−4(0)2=0−0=0

Thus, the point is (0,0) .

Substitute 2 for x in the function, to find the value of f(2) .

f(2)=(2)4−4(2)2=4−8=−4

Thus, the point is (2,−4) .

Substitute −2 for x in the function, to find the value of f(−2) .

f(−2)=(−2)4−4(−2)2=4−8=−4

Thus, the point is (−2,−4) .

Hence, the horizontals tangents passes to the points are (0,0) , (2,−4) and (−2,−4) .

(b)

To determine

To calculate: The equation of the tangent line when x=1 .

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 4QQ

The equation of the tangent is y=−4x+1 .

Explanation of Solution

Given Information:

The function is f(x)=x4−4x2 .

Formula Used:

Power rule of derivative:

ddxxn=nxn−1

Calculation:

The function is f(x)=x4−4x2 .

Find the derivative.

f′(x)=4x3−8x

Substitute 1 for x in the function, to find the value of f(1) .

f(1)=(1)4−4(1)2=1−4=−3

Thus, the tangent passes through the point is (1,−3) .

Substitute 1 for x in the function f′(1) , to find the value of slope.

f′(1)=4(1)3−8(1)=4−8=−4

Thus, the slope is −4 .

Find the equation of the tangentline, when the passing point is (1,−3) and slope is −4 .

Substitute 1 for x1 , −3 for y1 and −4 for m in the equation y−y1=m(x−x1) .

y−(−3)=(−4)(x−1)y+3=−4x+4y=−4x+4−3y=−4x+1

Hence, the equation of the tangent is y=−4x+1 .

(c)

To determine

To calculate: The equation of the normal line when x=1 .

(c)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 4QQ

The equation of the normal line is 4y=x−13 .

Explanation of Solution

Given Information:

The function is f(x)=x4−4x2 .

Formula Used:

Power rule of derivative:

ddxxn=nxn−1

Calculation:

The function is f(x)=x4−4x2 .

Find the derivative.

f′(x)=4x3−8x

Substitute 1 for x in the function, to find the value of f(1) .

f(1)=(1)4−4(1)2=1−4=−3

Thus, the tangent passes through the point is (1,−3) .

Substitute 1 for x in the function f′(1) , to find the value of slope.

f′(1)=4(1)3−8(1)=4−8=−4

Thus, the slope is −4 .

The slope of normal is 14 .

Find the equation of the normal line, when the passing point is (1,−3) and slope is 14 .

Substitute 1 for x1 , −3 for y1 and 14 for m in the equation y−y1=m(x−x1) .

y−(−3)=(14)(x−1)y=(14)(x−1)−3y=14x−14−34y=x−13

Hence, the equation of the normal line is 4y=x−13 .
