a. Given that y = f(x) and f(0) = -2, by the fundamental theorem of calculus we have

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 3x^2 + 4x + k \implies y = f(0) + \int_0^x (3t^2+4t+k) \, dt

Evaluate the integral to solve for y :

\displaystyle y = -2 + \int_0^x (3t^2+4t+k) \, dt

\displaystyle y = -2 + (t^3+2t^2+kt)\bigg|_0^x

\displaystyle y = x^3+2x^2+kx - 2

Use the other known value, f(2) = 18, to solve for k :

18 = 2^3 + 2\times2^2+2k - 2 \implies \boxed{k = 2}

Then the curve C has equation

\boxed{y = x^3 + 2x^2 + 2x - 2}

b. Any tangent to the curve C at a point (a, f(a)) has slope equal to the derivative of y at that point:

\dfrac{dy}{dx}\bigg|_{x=a} = 3a^2 + 4a + 2

The slope of the given tangent line y=x-2 is 1. Solve for a :

3a^2 + 4a + 2 = 1 \implies 3a^2 + 4a + 1 = (3a+1)(a+1)=0 \implies a = -\dfrac13 \text{ or }a = -1

so we know there exists a tangent to C with slope 1. When x = -1/3, we have y = f(-1/3) = -67/27; when x = -1, we have y = f(-1) = -3. This means the tangent line must meet C at either (-1/3, -67/27) or (-1, -3).

Decide which of these points is correct:

x - 2 = x^3 + 2x^2 + 2x - 2 \implies x^3 + 2x^2 + x = x(x+1)^2=0 \implies x=0 \text{ or } x = -1

So, the point of contact between the tangent line and C is (-1, -3).

Answer:

C. $97

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of his wage for all 15 days is the sum of all wages for the 15 days divided by 15.

average wage for 15 days = (sum of wages for the 15 days)/15

The amount of wages during a number of days is the product of the average wage of those days and the number of days.

First 7 days:

average wage: $87

number of days: 7

total wages in first 7 days = 7 * $87/day = $609

Last 7 days:

average wage: $92

number of days: 7

total wages in last 7 days = 7 * $92/day = $644

8th day:

wages of the 8th day is unknown, so we let x = wages of the 8th day

total wages of 15 days = (wages of first 7 days) + (wages of 8th day) + (wages of last 7 days)

total wages of 15 days = 609 + x + 644 = x + 1253

average wage for 15 days = (sum of wages for the 15 days)/15

average wage for 15 days = (x + 1253)/15

We are told the average for the 15 days is $90/day.

(x + 1253)/15 = 90

Multiply both sides by 15.

x + 1253 = 1350

Subtract 1253 from both sides.

x = 97

Answer:

You did not include the price they bought the units at.

I will assume this price is $5.

= 5 * 1,000

= $5,000

Recording it will be:
