Minimizing a Distance When we seek a minimum or maximum value of a function, it is sometimes easier to work with a simpler function instead. Suppose g(x)=f(x) where f(x)0 for all x. Explain why the local minima and maxima of f and g occur at the same values of x. Let gx be the distance between the point 3,0 and the point (x,x2) on the graph of the parabola y=x2. Express g as a function of x. Find the minimum value of the function g that you found in part b. Use the principle described in part a to simplify your work.

A triangle is formed by the coordinate axes and a line through the point (2,1), as shown in the figure. The value of y is given by y=1+2x2 Write the area A of the triangle as a function of x. Determine the domain of the function in the context of the problem. Sketch the graph of the area function. Estimate the minimum area of the triangle from the graph.
