A cubic curve defined by y=ax3+bx2+cx+dy = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d has a local maximum at (1,10)(-1, 10) and a point of inflexion at (1,2)(1, 2). What is the value of yy at the local minimum of the curve?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: -6

Cevap

The local minimum value of yy on the curve is 6-6.
By setting up a system of equations using the conditions for the local maximum at (1,10)(-1, 10) and the point of inflexion at (1,2)(1, 2), the cubic curve is uniquely determined as y=0.5x31.5x24.5x+7.5y = 0.5x^3 - 1.5x^2 - 4.5x + 7.5. Setting the derivative dydx=1.5(x3)(x+1)=0\frac{dy}{dx} = 1.5(x-3)(x+1) = 0 gives x=3x = 3 as the xx-coordinate of the local minimum. Evaluating y(3)y(3) gives 6-6.

1
Differentiate the general cubic equation to obtain expressions for the first and second derivatives.
dydx=3ax2+2bx+c\frac{dy}{dx} = 3ax^2 + 2bx + c and d2ydx2=6ax+2b\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 6ax + 2b.
Stationary points require dydx=0\frac{dy}{dx} = 0 and points of inflexion require d2ydx2=0\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 0.
2
Apply the point of inflexion conditions at (1,2)(1, 2).
6a(1)+2b=0    b=3a6a(1) + 2b = 0 \implies b = -3a, and a(1)3+b(1)2+c(1)+d=2    2a+c+d=2a(1)^3 + b(1)^2 + c(1) + d = 2 \implies -2a + c + d = 2.
At a point of inflexion, the second derivative is zero, and the point lies on the curve.
3
Apply the stationary point and coordinate conditions at the local maximum (1,10)(-1, 10).
3a(1)2+2b(1)+c=0    9a+c=0    c=9a3a(-1)^2 + 2b(-1) + c = 0 \implies 9a + c = 0 \implies c = -9a, and a+bc+d=10    5a+d=10-a + b - c + d = 10 \implies 5a + d = 10.
At a local maximum, the first derivative is zero, and the point lies on the curve.
4
Solve the system of linear equations for coefficients a,b,c,da, b, c, d.
a=0.5a = 0.5, b=1.5b = -1.5, c=4.5c = -4.5, d=7.5d = 7.5.
Combining 11a+d=2-11a + d = 2 and 5a+d=105a + d = 10 yields 16a=8    a=0.516a = 8 \implies a = 0.5.
5
Find the xx-coordinate of the local minimum by solving dydx=0\frac{dy}{dx} = 0.
1.5x23x4.5=0    1.5(x3)(x+1)=0    x=31.5x^2 - 3x - 4.5 = 0 \implies 1.5(x - 3)(x + 1) = 0 \implies x = 3 (since x=1x = -1 is the local maximum).
Evaluating d2ydx2(3)=6(0.5)(3)+2(1.5)=6>0\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}(3) = 6(0.5)(3) + 2(-1.5) = 6 > 0 confirms a local minimum at x=3x = 3.
6
Calculate the value of yy at x=3x = 3.
y=0.5(3)31.5(3)24.5(3)+7.5=6y = 0.5(3)^3 - 1.5(3)^2 - 4.5(3) + 7.5 = -6.
Substituting x=3x = 3 into the curve equation gives the value of yy at the local minimum.

Cevap: 7

Cevap

The value of the base xx is 7.
Expanding 24x24_x, 13x13_x, and 345x345_x into base 10 yields (2x+4)(x+3)=3x2+4x+5(2x + 4)(x + 3) = 3x^2 + 4x + 5. Expanding the left side gives 2x2+10x+122x^2 + 10x + 12. Equating and simplifying gives x26x7=0x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0, which factors as (x7)(x+1)=0(x - 7)(x + 1) = 0. The positive integer solution greater than 5 is x=7x = 7.

Cevap: 5

Cevap

The value of xx is 55.
Converting all terms to base 2 yields log2(x1)+12log2(x1)+14log2(x1)=74log2(x1)\log_2(x-1) + \frac{1}{2}\log_2(x-1) + \frac{1}{4}\log_2(x-1) = \frac{7}{4}\log_2(x-1). Setting 74log2(x1)=72\frac{7}{4}\log_2(x-1) = \frac{7}{2} gives log2(x1)=2\log_2(x-1) = 2. Exponentiating both sides in base 2 gives x1=22=4x - 1 = 2^2 = 4, which results in x=5x = 5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert each logarithmic term to base 2 using the change of base property.
\log_4(x-1) = \frac{1}{2}\log_2(x-1) \quad \text{and} \quad \log_{16}(x-1) = \frac{1}{4}\log_2(x-1)
Bases 4 and 16 are powers of 2 (4=224 = 2^2 and 16=2416 = 2^4), allowing transformation to a common base.
2
Substitute these equivalent base-2 terms into the original equation.
\log_2(x-1) + \frac{1}{2}\log_2(x-1) + \frac{1}{4}\log_2(x-1) = \frac{7}{2}
This consolidates the equation into a single logarithmic variable, log2(x1)\log_2(x-1).
3
Factor out log2(x1)\log_2(x-1) and add the fractional coefficients.
\left(1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4}\right)\log_2(x-1) = \frac{7}{4}\log_2(x-1) = \frac{7}{2}
Summing the coefficients 1+12+14=741 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{4}.
4
Isolate log2(x1)\log_2(x-1) and solve for xx.
\log_2(x-1) = 2 \implies x - 1 = 2^2 = 4 \implies x = 5
Multiplying both sides by 47\frac{4}{7} yields log2(x1)=2\log_2(x-1) = 2, and rewriting in exponential form gives x=5x = 5.

Find the number of distinct arrangements of the letters of the word PARALLEL\text{PARALLEL} such that no two letters ’L’\text{'L'} are adjacent.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1200

Cevap

1200
To ensure no two letters 'L' are adjacent, we use the gap method. First, arrange the 5 non-L letters (P, A, R, A, E). Because 'A' repeats twice, there are 5! / 2! = 60 distinct arrangements. These 5 letters form 6 available gaps (including the ends). Selecting 3 of these 6 gaps to insert the 3 identical 'L's can be done in C(6, 3) = 20 ways. Multiplying these gives 60 × 20 = 1200 valid arrangements.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Count the frequency of each letter in the word PARALLEL.
The word has 8 letters: 1 P, 2 A's, 1 R, 3 L's, and 1 E.
Recognizing repeated elements is essential for permutations with duplicates.
2
Arrange the non-restricted letters (P, A, R, A, E).
Number of arrangements = 5! / 2! = 60.
The letter 'A' is repeated twice, so we divide 5! by 2!.
3
Calculate the number of available gaps for placing the 3 'L's so that no two are adjacent.
5 arranged letters create 6 gap positions. Choosing 3 gaps gives C(6, 3) = (6 × 5 × 4) / (3 × 2 × 1) = 20 ways.
Placing at most one 'L' per gap guarantees that no two 'L's will be adjacent.
4
Multiply the number of arrangements of non-L letters by the gap choices.
Total arrangements = 60 × 20 = 1200.
By the fundamental counting principle, total arrangements equal the product of independent choices.

5+265 + 2\sqrt{6}
To rationalize 32+233223\frac{3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{3}}{3\sqrt{2} - 2\sqrt{3}}, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator, 32+233\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{3}. Expanding the numerator yields (32)2+2(32)(23)+(23)2=18+126+12=30+126(3\sqrt{2})^2 + 2(3\sqrt{2})(2\sqrt{3}) + (2\sqrt{3})^2 = 18 + 12\sqrt{6} + 12 = 30 + 12\sqrt{6}. Expanding the denominator gives (32)2(23)2=1812=6(3\sqrt{2})^2 - (2\sqrt{3})^2 = 18 - 12 = 6. Dividing 30+12630 + 12\sqrt{6} by 66 gives 5+265 + 2\sqrt{6}.

Cevap: x+5y47=0x + 5y - 47 = 0

Cevap

The equation of the normal line to the curve at point P is x+5y47=0x + 5y - 47 = 0.
Differentiating the curve yields dydx=3x27\frac{dy}{dx} = 3x^2 - 7. Equating this derivative to the tangent slope of 5 gives x=2x = 2 for the first quadrant. Evaluating the curve equation at x=2x = 2 gives y=9y = 9, locating point P(2,9)P(2, 9). The normal gradient is the negative reciprocal of the tangent slope, giving mn=15m_n = -\frac{1}{5}. Applying the point-slope formula with (2,9)(2, 9) yields y9=15(x2)y - 9 = -\frac{1}{5}(x - 2), which simplifies to x+5y47=0x + 5y - 47 = 0.

Substituting k=3k = 3 gives limx2(x2)(x+5)x2=7\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{(x-2)(x+5)}{x-2} = 7, confirming that k=3k = 3 is correct.

What is the value of (1742)(mod9)(17 - 42) \pmod{9} expressed in standard non-negative remainder form?

Cevap: 2

Cevap

The value of (1742)(mod9)(17 - 42) \pmod{9} in standard non-negative remainder form is 22.
Evaluating 174217 - 42 gives 25-25. Reducing 25-25 modulo 99 requires finding a non-negative remainder rr such that 25=9q+r-25 = 9q + r with 0r<90 \le r < 9. Choosing q=3q = -3 yields 25=9(3)+2-25 = 9(-3) + 2, making the correct non-negative remainder 22. Alternatively, 178(mod9)17 \equiv 8 \pmod{9} and 426(mod9)42 \equiv 6 \pmod{9}, so 86=2(mod9)8 - 6 = 2 \pmod{9}.

If log3x+log9x+log27x=112\log_3 x + \log_9 x + \log_{27} x = \frac{11}{2}, what is the value of xx?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2727

Cevap

The value of xx is 2727.
Applying the change of base identity yields log9x=12log3x\log_9 x = \frac{1}{2}\log_3 x and log27x=13log3x\log_{27} x = \frac{1}{3}\log_3 x. Combining like terms gives 116log3x=112\frac{11}{6}\log_3 x = \frac{11}{2}, which reduces to log3x=3\log_3 x = 3. Expressing in exponential form yields x=33=27x = 3^3 = 27.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Express all logarithms in base 3 using the change of base rule logakx=1klogax\log_{a^k} x = \frac{1}{k} \log_a x.
\log_9 x = \frac{1}{2} \log_3 x \quad \text{and} \quad \log_{27} x = \frac{1}{3} \log_3 x
Converting all terms to a common base allows them to be combined algebraically.
2
Substitute these expressions back into the original equation.
\log_3 x + \frac{1}{2} \log_3 x + \frac{1}{3} \log_3 x = \frac{11}{2}
This creates a single linear equation in terms of log3x\log_3 x.
3
Combine the coefficients of log3x\log_3 x.
\left(1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3}\right) \log_3 x = \frac{6 + 3 + 2}{6} \log_3 x = \frac{11}{6} \log_3 x = \frac{11}{2}
Adding the fractions gives a single coefficient.
4
Solve for log3x\log_3 x and evaluate xx.
\log_3 x = \frac{11}{2} \times \frac{6}{11} = 3 \implies x = 3^3 = 27
Converting from logarithmic to exponential form gives the value of xx.

Cevap: 2020

Cevap

The value of yy is 2020.
The median of an even number of values arranged in order is the average of the two central terms, which gives x+142=11\frac{x + 14}{2} = 11, solving to x=8x = 8. Since the mean of the six numbers is 1313, their total sum is 6×13=786 \times 13 = 78. Adding all terms gives 3+8+8+14+y+25=58+y=783 + 8 + 8 + 14 + y + 25 = 58 + y = 78, which yields y=20y = 20.

Which set contains all the solutions to the trigonometric equation sin2x=cosx\sin 2x = \cos x for 0x1800^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: {30,90,150}\{30^\circ, 90^\circ, 150^\circ\}

Cevap

The correct set of solutions is \{30^\circ, 90^\circ, 150^\circ\}.
Using the identity sin2x=2sinxcosx\sin 2x = 2\sin x \cos x, the equation becomes 2sinxcosxcosx=02\sin x \cos x - \cos x = 0. Factoring out cosx\cos x gives cosx(2sinx1)=0\cos x(2\sin x - 1) = 0. Setting each factor to zero yields cosx=0\cos x = 0 (giving x=90x = 90^\circ) and sinx=12\sin x = \frac{1}{2} (giving x=30x = 30^\circ and x=150x = 150^\circ). Thus, the complete set of solutions in the given interval is \{30^\circ, 90^\circ, 150^\circ\}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Apply the double-angle identity for sine.
Substitute sin2x=2sinxcosx\sin 2x = 2\sin x \cos x into the equation to get 2sinxcosx=cosx2\sin x \cos x = \cos x.
This expresses the equation in terms of single angle xx.
2
Rearrange and factor the equation.
2sinxcosxcosx=0    cosx(2sinx1)=02\sin x \cos x - \cos x = 0 \implies \cos x(2\sin x - 1) = 0.
Factoring prevents losing valid roots that occur when a variable factor equals zero.
3
Set each factor to zero and solve for xx in the interval 0x1800^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ.
First factor: cosx=0    x=90\cos x = 0 \implies x = 90^\circ.
Second factor: 2sinx1=0    sinx=12    x=302\sin x - 1 = 0 \implies \sin x = \frac{1}{2} \implies x = 30^\circ or x=18030=150x = 180^\circ - 30^\circ = 150^\circ.

Find the positive integer value of xx that satisfies the logarithmic equation xlog3x=81x3x^{\log_3 x} = 81x^3.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 81

Cevap

The positive integer value of xx is 81.
Taking the logarithm base 3 on both sides transforms xlog3x=81x3x^{\log_3 x} = 81x^3 into (log3x)2=4+3log3x(\log_3 x)^2 = 4 + 3\log_3 x. Substituting u=log3xu = \log_3 x yields the quadratic equation u23u4=0u^2 - 3u - 4 = 0, which factors as (u4)(u+1)=0(u-4)(u+1) = 0. The roots are u=4u = 4 (x=34=81x = 3^4 = 81) and u=1u = -1 (x=31=1/3x = 3^{-1} = 1/3). Since xx must be a positive integer, the correct value is 81.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Take logarithm base 3 of both sides of the equation xlog3x=81x3x^{\log_3 x} = 81x^3
log3(xlog3x)=log3(81x3)\log_3(x^{\log_3 x}) = \log_3(81x^3)
Taking the logarithm with base 3 allows us to simplify the exponent containing log3x\log_3 x.

3
Substitute u=log3xu = \log_3 x to create a quadratic equation
u23u4=0u^2 - 3u - 4 = 0
Setting u=log3xu = \log_3 x converts the equation into standard quadratic form.

Factor the quadratic expression
(u4)(u+1)=0    u=4 or u=1(u - 4)(u + 1) = 0 \implies u = 4 \text{ or } u = -1

The question specifically requests the positive integer solution, eliminating x=13x = \frac{1}{3}.

The value of p+qp + q is 22.
