Evaluate the limit $\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{x^2 - 4}{x - 2}$ . What is the numerical value of this limit?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The value of the limit is

4

.

Direct substitution of

x = 2

produces the indeterminate form

\frac{0}{0}

. Factoring the numerator gives

\frac{(x-2)(x+2)}{x-2}

. Canceling the non-zero factor

(x-2)

simplifies the expression to

x+2

. Evaluating the limit as

x

approaches

2

yields

2 + 2 = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Check the form by direct substitution of

x = 2

Obtained the indeterminate form

\frac{0}{0}

Direct substitution results in division by zero, requiring algebraic simplification.

2

Factor the polynomial in the numerator

x^2 - 4 = (x - 2)(x + 2)

Difference of two squares factorization allows canceling common terms.

3

Cancel the common factor

(x - 2)

\frac{(x - 2)(x + 2)}{x - 2} = x + 2

For

x \neq 2

, division by

(x - 2)

is valid.

4

Evaluate the simplified limit as

x \to 2

2 + 2 = 4

Substitute

x = 2

directly into the continuous polynomial

x + 2

.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $-12$

Cevap

The value of

p + q

is

-12

.

The derivative of

y = x^3 + px^2 + qx + 5

is

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3x^2 + 2px + q

. Setting

\frac{dy}{dx} = 0

at the stationary points

x = -1

and

x = 3

means

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3(x + 1)(x - 3) = 3x^2 - 6x - 9

. Comparing coefficients gives

2p = -6 \implies p = -3

and

q = -9

. Summing these constants gives

p + q = -12

. Evaluating the second derivative

\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 6x + 2p = 6x - 6

confirms a maximum at

x = -1

(

\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = -12 < 0

) and a minimum at

x = 3

(

\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 12 > 0

).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the derivative of the given function.

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3x^2 + 2px + q

Stationary points occur where the first derivative

\frac{dy}{dx} = 0

.

2

Use the stationary points

x = -1

and

x = 3

to form a quadratic equation for the derivative.

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3(x + 1)(x - 3) = 3(x^2 - 2x - 3) = 3x^2 - 6x - 9

Since

x = -1

and

x = 3

are roots of

\frac{dy}{dx} = 0

, the derivative must factor as

3(x - (-1))(x - 3)

.

3

Equate coefficients of the two derivative expressions to solve for

p

and

q

.

2p = -6 \implies p = -3

and

q = -9

Matching corresponding terms gives

2p = -6

and

q = -9

.

4

Calculate the required sum

p + q

.

p + q = -3 + (-9) = -12

Summing the calculated constants yields

-12

.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $2x + 3$

Cevap

2x + 3

Applying the first principles limit formula

\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}

gives

\frac{x^2 + 2xh + h^2 + 3x + 3h - (x^2 + 3x)}{h} = \frac{2xh + h^2 + 3h}{h} = 2x + h + 3

. As

h \to 0

, this expression evaluates to

2x + 3

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the difference quotient using the definition of differentiation from first principles

\frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h} = \frac{[(x+h)^2 + 3(x+h)] - [x^2 + 3x]}{h}

The definition of derivative from first principles requires finding

\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}

.

2

Expand algebraic terms in the numerator

\frac{x^2 + 2xh + h^2 + 3x + 3h - x^2 - 3x}{h}

Expanding

(x+h)^2 = x^2 + 2xh + h^2

and

3(x+h) = 3x + 3h

allows terms to be combined.

3

Simplify the numerator by canceling like terms and dividing by

h

\frac{2xh + h^2 + 3h}{h} = 2x + h + 3

The terms

x^2 - x^2 = 0

and

3x - 3x = 0

cancel out, leaving terms containing

h

, which can be divided by

h

.

4

Evaluate the limit as

h \to 0

\lim_{h \to 0} (2x + h + 3) = 2x + 3

Setting

h = 0

in the simplified quotient yields the final derivative

f'(x) = 2x + 3

.

u(1) = 1

, and

v'(1) = 16

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Decompose the function into two components for the Product Rule

Let

u(x) = (2x - 1)^3

and

v(x) = (x^2 + 3)^2

, so

y = u(x) v(x)

.

The function is a product of two composite expressions.

2

Differentiate each term using the Chain Rule

u'(x) = 3(2x - 1)^2 \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(2x - 1) = 6(2x - 1)^2

v'(x) = 2(x^2 + 3) \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(x^2 + 3) = 4x(x^2 + 3)

Applying the Chain Rule requires differentiating the outer function and multiplying by the derivative of the inner function.

3

Apply the Product Rule formula

\frac{dy}{dx} = u'(x)v(x) + u(x)v'(x) = 6(2x - 1)^2 (x^2 + 3)^2 + 4x(2x - 1)^3 (x^2 + 3)

The derivative of a product

u \cdot v

is

u'v + uv'

.

4

Evaluate the derivative at

x = 1

u(1) = (2(1) - 1)^3 = 1

u'(1) = 6(2(1) - 1)^2 = 6

v(1) = (1^2 + 3)^2 = 16

v'(1) = 4(1)(1^2 + 3) = 16

\left.\frac{dy}{dx}\right|_{x=1} = (6)(16) + (1)(16) = 96 + 16 = 112

Substitute

x = 1

into all expressions to find the numerical derivative.

The total profit $P(x)$ , in thousands of Naira, obtained from producing and selling $x$ hundred units of a commodity is modeled by the function $P(x) = -x^3 + 6x^2 + 15x - 8$ , where $x \ge 0$ . What is the maximum profit achievable?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 92

Cevap

The maximum profit achievable is 92 thousand Naira.

To find the maximum profit, we find the stationary points of

P(x) = -x^3 + 6x^2 + 15x - 8

by taking the derivative

P'(x) = -3x^2 + 12x + 15

and setting it to 0. Solving

-3(x-5)(x+1) = 0

with

x \ge 0

yields

x = 5

. Testing the second derivative gives

P''(5) = -18 < 0

, confirming

x = 5

is a maximum. Substituting

x = 5

into

P(x)

yields

P(5) = 92

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Differentiate the profit function

P(x)

with respect to

x

P'(x) = -3x^2 + 12x + 15

Stationary points occur where the rate of change of profit (the derivative) is equal to zero.

2

Set

P'(x) = 0

and solve for

x

-3(x^2 - 4x - 5) = 0 \implies (x - 5)(x + 1) = 0

, giving critical values

x = 5

and

x = -1

Factoring the quadratic equation yields the critical values of production level.

3

Filter critical values based on physical domain constraints

x = 5

(reject

x = -1

since production

x \ge 0

)

Production quantities cannot be negative in physical real-life contexts.

4

Perform the second derivative test to confirm the nature of the stationary point

P''(x) = -6x + 12 \implies P''(5) = -6(5) + 12 = -18

Since

P''(5) < 0

, the function achieves a local maximum at

x = 5

.

5

Substitute

x = 5

back into original function

P(x)

P(5) = -(5)^3 + 6(5)^2 + 15(5) - 8 = -125 + 150 + 75 - 8 = 92

Evaluating

. Combining these results with the mandatory constant of integration

+ C

gives

3x^3 + 3x^2 + x + 2\cos(3x) + C

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Expand the squared polynomial binomial term

(3x + 1)^2 = 9x^2 + 6x + 1

Expanding the expression allows for simple term-by-term integration using the power rule.

2

Integrate the polynomial component term by term

\int (9x^2 + 6x + 1) dx = 3x^3 + 3x^2 + x

Apply the power rule

\int x^n dx = \frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}

to each polynomial term.

3

Integrate the trigonometric component

\int -6\sin(3x) dx = -6 \left(-\frac{1}{3}\cos(3x)\right) = +2\cos(3x)

The integral of

\sin(kx)

is

-\frac{1}{k}\cos(kx)

. Multiplying by

-6

yields

+2\cos(3x)

.

4

Combine terms and add the constant of integration

3x^3 + 3x^2 + x + 2\cos(3x) + C

Indefinite integrals must include an arbitrary constant

The area of the region bounded by the parabola $y = kx - x^2$ (where $k > 0$ ) and the $x$ -axis between its $x$ -intercepts at $x = 0$ and $x = k$ is equal to $36$ square units. What is the value of the positive constant $k$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The value of the positive constant

k

is 6.

The area bounded by

y = kx - x^2

and the x-axis from

x = 0

to

x = k

is obtained by integrating

kx - x^2

, which yields

\frac{k^3}{6}

. Setting

\frac{k^3}{6} = 36

gives

k^3 = 216

, whose cube root is

k = 6

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the definite integral representing the area bounded by the curve and the x-axis between the intercepts

x = 0

and

x = k

.

\int_{0}^{k} (kx - x^2) \, dx = 36

The area under a curve

y = f(x)

above the x-axis from

x = a

to

x = b

is given by

\int_{a}^{b} f(x) \, dx

.

2

Find the antiderivative and evaluate it at the limits

x = k

and

x = 0

.

\left[ \frac{kx^2}{2} - \frac{x^3}{3} \right]_{0}^{k} = \left(\frac{k(k)^2}{2} - \frac{k^3}{3}\right) - 0 = \frac{k^3}{6}

Applying the integration power rule

\int x^n \, dx = \frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}

and simplifying

\frac{k^3}{2} - \frac{k^3}{3} = \frac{k^3}{6}

.

3

Set the evaluated expression equal to 36 and solve for

k

.

\frac{k^3}{6} = 36 \implies k^3 = 216 \implies k = 6

Multiplying both sides by 6 yields

k^3 = 216

, and taking the cube root gives

k = 6

.

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The value of the constant

k

is

3

.

By definition, a function

f(x)

is continuous at

x = c

if

\lim_{x \to c} f(x) = f(c)

. Factoring the numerator gives

x^2 + x - 6 = (x - 2)(x + 3)

. Canceling the common factor

(x - 2)

for

x \neq 2

, the limit as

x \to 2

is

2 + 3 = 5

. Equating

f(2) = 2k - 1

to 5 yields

2k - 1 = 5

, which solves to

k = 3

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate the limit of

f(x)

as

x

approaches

2

.

\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{x^2 + x - 6}{x - 2} = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{(x - 2)(x + 3)}{x - 2} = \lim_{x \to 2} (x + 3) = 5

Direct substitution gives the indeterminate form

\frac{0}{0}

, so factor the numerator to simplify.

2

Apply the definition of continuity at a point.

f(2) = \lim_{x \to 2} f(x) \implies 2k - 1 = 5

For

f(x)

to be continuous at

x = 2

, the value of the function at

x = 2

must equal its limit as

x \to 2

.

3

Solve the linear equation for

k

.

2k = 6 \implies k = 3

Add 1 to both sides and divide by 2.

Alternatively, use L'Hôpital's rule to evaluate the limit:

\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{\frac{d}{dx}(x^2+x-6)}{\frac{d}{dx}(x-2)} = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{2x+1}{1} = 5

. Then set

2k - 1 = 5

to find

k = 3

.

Evaluate the limit $\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sqrt{x + 4} - 2}{x}$ . What is the numerical value of this limit?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.25

Cevap

The numerical value of the limit is 0.25 (or

\frac{1}{4}

).

When direct substitution into

\frac{\sqrt{x + 4} - 2}{x}

yields the indeterminate form

\frac{0}{0}

, rationalizing the numerator by multiplying by its conjugate

\sqrt{x + 4} + 2

simplifies the expression to

\frac{1}{\sqrt{x + 4} + 2}

. Taking the limit as

x \to 0

gives

\frac{1}{4} = 0.25

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Check direct substitution

Indeterminate form

\frac{0}{0}

Directly evaluating at

x = 0

yields zero in both numerator and denominator.

2

Multiply by the conjugate of the numerator

\frac{(\sqrt{x + 4} - 2)(\sqrt{x + 4} + 2)}{x(\sqrt{x + 4} + 2)} = \frac{x}{x(\sqrt{x + 4} + 2)}

Rationalizing the radical in the numerator allows cancellation of the term causing the zero denominator.

3

Cancel common factors and evaluate limit

\frac{1}{\sqrt{0 + 4} + 2} = 0.25

Canceling

x

removes the zero factor, permitting direct evaluation.

The value of

\frac{dy}{dx}

at

x = 2

is

34

.

Applying the product rule

\frac{dy}{dx} = u'v + uv'

alongside the chain rule gives

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x(2x - 3)^3 + 6(x^2 + 1)(2x - 3)^2

. Evaluating at

x = 2

yields

4(1) + 30(1) = 34

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify component functions for the product rule

Let

u(x) = x^2 + 1

and

v(x) = (2x - 3)^3

.

The function

y

is a product of two differentiable functions.

2

Differentiate each component function

u'(x) = 2x

and

v'(x) = 3(2x - 3)^2 \cdot 2 = 6(2x - 3)^2

.

The power rule gives

u'(x)

and the chain rule gives

v'(x)

by multiplying by the derivative of the inner function

(2x - 3)

.

3

Apply the product rule formula

\frac{dy}{dx} = u'(x)v(x) + u(x)v'(x)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x(2x - 3)^3 + 6(x^2 + 1)(2x - 3)^2
