Problem 38 Hard Difficulty
The arc length function for a curve y = f(x), wheref is an
increasing function, is s(x) = V3t + 5 dt.
(a) If f has y-intercept 2, find an equation for f.
(b) What point on the graph of f is 3 units along the curve
from the y-intercept? State your answer rounded to 3
decimal places.
Answer
a) f (x) = ?(3x + 4)3/2 + 3
b) point (1.159, 4.765) is about 3 units from the y -
intercept
