Does a Limiting Value Occur? A rocket ship is flying away from Earth at a constant velocity, and it continues on its course indefinitely. Let D(t) denote its distance from Earth after t years of travel. Do you expect that D has a limiting value?
1. A critical number of f′(x) is an inflection point of f(x).True or False 2. If the radius of a circle is increasing at a constant rate, then so is the circumference.True or False 3. If two variables x and y are functions of t and are related by the equationy = 1 −x^2, then dy/dt = −2x.True or False 4. When finding the global minimum of a function on an interval, you must usethe first or second derivative test to verify that your point is a global minimum.True or False
When a management training company prices its seminar on management techniques at $400 per person, 1,000 people will attend the seminar. The company estimates that for each $5 reduction in price, an additional 20 people will attend the seminar. Let x represent the number of $5 reductions. Use this information to answer questions 1-4 below. 1) Since R(x) is continuous, we can determine the absolute maximum by evaluating R(x) at the endpoints and the critical number. After doing so, we see the maximum revenue occurs when x =________price reductions. 2) The maximum revenue is $______________. Round to the nearest cent. 3)The price of a seminar ticket is that yields the maximum revenue is $ per seminar ticket. Round to the nearest dollar. 4)
2. Suppose that f(x) is a function continuous for every value of x whose first derivative is f'(x) = 2(1-x)/1+x^2 and f"(x)= 4x(x^2-3)/ (1+x^2)^2 Further, assume that it is known that f has a horizontal asymptote at y = 0. and a. Determine all critical points of f.
find the value of x where y is a minimum y = Ax2 ln(x)
A continuous function y = ƒ(x) is known to be negative at x = 0 and positive at x = 1. Why does the equation ƒ(x) = 0 have at least one solution between x = 0 and x = 1? Illustrate with a sketch.
The oxygen supply, S, in the blood depends on the hematocrit, H, the percentage of red blood cells in the blood. If S = k(H) = aHe-bH for positive constants a and b, with domain (0, infinity) and k'(H) = ae-bH(1-bH) 1. Use the definition to find the only critical point H1 of k on its domain. 2. Use a number line and the first derivative test to show that the oxygen supply is maximised at H1.You have to explain how you determine the sign of the first derivative on every interval. 3. What is the maximum oxygen supply? 4. How does increasing the value of the constants a and b in the same proportion change the maximumvalue of S? Please answer 3 and 4

For the continuous function f(x), if f’(-4) does not exist, then x=-4 is a critical point.
If the above graph is the graph of f′(x), then f(x) has a local maximum at x=___, a local minimum at x=____ and a critical point that is neither a local maximum nor a local minimum at x=____
2. Give an example showing that, even if f0(c) = 0, it could happen that f(x) does not have a localmaximum or minimum at x = c. How is this consistent with Fermat’s Theorem in the book?
(a) The cost of producing 5-gallon water bottles is given by C(q) = 0.005q + 2q + 1000. If 2000 5-gallon water bottles are produced, find the (i) total cost (ii) average cost (iii) marginal cost (iv) marginal average cost βx − 3 if x ≤ 2(b) Suppose that f(x) = βx + 2 if x > 2Find the value of β so that f(x) is continuous everywhere along the real line. (c) The demand for watches is given by p = 7000 − 2q dollars, and the supply of watches is given by p = 0.01q + 2q + 1000 dollars, where q is the number of watches demanded and supplied when the price per watch is p dollars. Based on the information provided, calculate the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price for watches. (d) Show that x − 4 is a factor of x − 5x + 2x + 20x − 24.
