2x4=8 2x2=4 4+8=12, so it is A
a. Given that y = f(x) and f(0) = -2, by the fundamental theorem of calculus we have

Evaluate the integral to solve for y :



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

Then the curve C has equation

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

The slope of the given tangent line
is 1. Solve for a :

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:

So, the point of contact between the tangent line and C is (-1, -3).
Answer:
The equation does not have a real root in the interval ![\rm [0,1]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Crm%20%5B0%2C1%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can make use of the intermediate value theorem.
The theorem states that if
is a continuous function whose domain is the interval [a, b], then it takes on any value between f(a) and f(b) at some point within the interval. There are two corollaries:
- If a continuous function has values of opposite sign inside an interval, then it has a root in that interval. This is also known as Bolzano's theorem.
- The image of a continuous function over an interval is itself an interval.
Of course, in our case, we will make use of the first one.
First, we need to proof that our function is continues in
, which it is since every polynomial is a continuous function on the entire line of real numbers. Then, we can apply the first corollary to the interval
, which means to evaluate the equation in 0 and 1:

Since both values have the same sign, positive in this case, we can say that by virtue of the first corollary of the intermediate value theorem the equation does not have a real root in the interval
. I attached a plot of the equation in the interval
where you can clearly observe how the graph does not cross the x-axis in the interval.
