At what value(s) of x does f(x) = –x^4+2x^2 have a critical point where the graph changes from decreasing to increasing?

Answer:

f''(-1) and f''(1) are both negative, so at x=-1 and x=1, the function is changing from increasing to decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation: We usually indicate exponents with the "^" symbol. This makes the function f(x) = -x^4 + 2x^2.

f'(x) = -4x^3 + 4x; f'(x) = 0 when x= 0 or ±1.

f''(x) = -12x^2 + 4, and this is > 0 when x=0, so x=0 is a relative minimum point on the graph. This means that the function is changing from decreasing to increasing.

Answer:

77.  \cot^{6} x = \cot^{4} x \csc^{2}x - \cot^{4} xProved

78.  \sec^{4}x \tan^{2} x = \sec^{2}x [\tan^{2}x + \tan^{4}x ] Proved

79. \cos^{3} x\sin^{2} x = [\sin^{2}x - \sin^{4}x] \cos x Proved.

80. \sin^{4}x - \cos^{4}x = 1 - 2\cos^{2}x + 2 \cos^{4} x Proved.

Step-by-step explanation:

77. Left hand side

= \cot^{6} x

= \cot^{4} x \times \cot^{2} x

= \cot^{4}x [\csc^{2}x - 1]  

{Since we know, \csc^{2} x - \cot^{2}x = 1}

= \cot^{4} x \csc^{2}x - \cot^{4} x  

= Right hand side (Proved)

78. Left hand side

= \sec^{4}x \tan^{2} x

= \sec^{2} x [1 + \tan^{2}x] \tan^{2} x  

{Since \sec^{2}x - \tan^{2}x = 1}

= \sec^{2}x [\tan^{2}x + \tan^{4}x ]

= Right hand side (Proved)

79. Left hand side  

= \cos^{3} x\sin^{2} x

= \cos x[1 - \sin^{2} x] \sin^{2} x

{Since \sin^{2}x + \cos^{2} x = 1}

= [\sin^{2}x - \sin^{4}x] \cos x

= Right hand side

80. Left hand side  

= \sin^{4}x - \cos^{4}x

= [\sin^{2}x + \cos^{2}x]^{2} - 2\sin^{2} x \cos^{2}x

{Since \sin^{2}x + \cos^{2} x = 1}

= 1 - 2\cos^{2} x[1 - \cos^{2}x ]

= 1 - 2\cos^{2}x + 2 \cos^{4} x

= Right hand side. (Proved)
