The process is similar to (and easier* than) adding three 4-digit numbers. Add the numbers in each column.
The sum is ...
(2+1-3)x³ +(-4+6+2)x² +(6-8-4)x +(-3+12-7)
= 0x³ +4x² -6x +2
The sum is 4x² -6x +2
_____
* The process is easier because there are no "carry" operations from one column to another as there may be when adding multi-digit numbers.
is
so it should be between 0 and 1 but a little bit closer to 1.
That is in standard form.
<h2>2.</h2><h3>Given</h3>
<h3>Find</h3>
- y·y'' +x·y' -16 in simplest form
<h3>Solution</h3>
It is convenient to expand the expression for y to ease determination of derivatives.
... y = 4x -6x²
... y' = 4 -12x
... y'' = -12
Then the differential expression can be written as
... (4x -6x²)(-12) +x(4 -12x) -16
... = -48x +72x² +4x -12x² -16
... = 60x² -44x -16
<h2>3.</h2><h3>Given</h3>
<h3>Find</h3>
- the turning points
- the extreme(s)
<h3>Solution</h3>
The derivative is
... y' = -16x^-2 + x^2
This is zero at the turning points, so
... -16/x^2 +x^2 = 0
... x^4 = 16 . . . . . . . . . multiply by x^2, add 16
... x^2 = ±√16 = ±4
We're only interested in the real values of x, so
... x = ±√4 = ±2 . . . . . . . x-values at the turning points
Then the turning points are
... y = 16/-2 +(-2)³/3 = -8 +-8/3 = -32/3 . . . . for x = -2
... y = 16/2 + 2³/3 = 8 +8/3 = 32/3 . . . . . . . for x = 2
The maximum is (-2, -10 2/3); the minimum is (2, 10 2/3).
20. Using absolute value, make (-10) turn into 10 and do 10 + 10 = 20
