Answer to Problem 1RE

The change in y is 16.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The function y is f(x)=2x2+5.

Definition used:

Increments:

“For y=f(x), Δx=x2x1 and Δy=y2y1”.

Calculation:

Consider the function f(x)=2x2+5.

Compute the change in x or Δx for the function f(x)=2x2+5 for x1=1 and x2=3.

From the given definition, it is known that Δx=x2x1.

Δx=x2x1=31=2

So the value of change in x is Δx=2.

Compute the change in y or Δy for the function f(x)=2x2+5 for x1=1 and x2=4.

Compute f(1) by substituting x=2 in the function f(x)=2x2+5.

f(1)=2(1)2+5=2+5=7

Therefore, the value of f(1) is 7.

Compute f(3) by substituting x=3 in the function f(x)=2x2+5.

f(3)=2(3)2+5=2×9+5=23

Therefore, the value of f(3) is 23.

From the given definition, it is known that Δy=y2y1.

Δy=f(x2)f(x1)=f(3)f(1)=237=16

Therefore, the change in y as x changes from 1 to 3 is 16.

(B)

To determine

To find: The average rate of change of y with respect to x when the value of x changes from 1 to 3.

(B)

Answer to Problem 1RE

The average rate of change of y with respect to x is 8.

Explanation of Solution

Definition used:

Average Rate of Change:

“For y=f(x), the average rate of change form x=a to x=a+h is given by

f(a+h)f(a)(a+h)a=f(a+h)f(a)h  h0”.

Calculation:

From part (A), the value of f(3) is 23 and the value of f(1) is 7.

Compute the average rate of change by using the above mentioned definition.

Average rate of change=f(1+2)f(1)(1+2)1=f(3)f(1)31=2372=162

=8

Therefore, the average rate of change of y with respect to x when the value of x changes from 1 to 3 is 8.

(C)

To determine

To find: The slope of the secant line passing through the points (1,f(1)) and (3,f(3)).

(C)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1RE

The slope of the secant line is 8.

Explanation of Solution

Result used:

“The slope of the secant line joining points (a,f(a)) and (b,f(b)) is f(a)f(b)ab”.

Calculation:

From part (A), the value of f(3) is 23 and the value of f(1) is 7.

Compute the slope of the secant line joining points (1,f(1)) and (3,f(3)) as follows,

f(3)f(1)31=2372=162=8

Therefore, the slope of the secant line passing through the points (1,f(1)) and (3,f(3)) is 8.

(D)

To determine

To find: The instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x when x=1.

(D)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1RE

The instantaneous rate of change of y is 4.

Explanation of Solution

Definition used:

Instantaneous rate of change:

“For y=f(x), the instantaneous rate of change at x=a is limh0(f(a+h)f(a)h) if limit exists”.

Calculation:

Obtain instantaneous rate of change at x=1.

That is, limh0(f(a+h)f(a)h)=limh0(f(1+h)f(1)h) (1)

Obtain f(1+h).

f(1+h)=2(1+h)2+5=2(1+2h+h2)+5=2+4h+2h2+5=7+4h+2h2

From part (A), f(1)=7.

Substitute the value of f(1+h),f(1) in the equation (1),

limh0(f(1+h)f(1)h)=limh0(f(1+h)hf(1)h)=limh0(7+4h+2h2h7h)=limh0(4+2h)=4

Therefore, the instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x at x=1 is 4.

(E)

To determine

To find: The slope of the tangent line at x=1.

(E)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1RE

The slope of the tangent line is 4.

Explanation of Solution

Formula used:

Slope of the tangent line.

The slope of the tangent line at the point x=a is the value of the derivative of the function at x=a.

Calculation:

From part (D), the instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x at x=1 is 4.

That is, the value of the derivative of the function f(x)=2x2+5 at x=1 is 4.

So by the above mentioned definition, the slope of the tangent line is 4.

Therefore, the slope of the tangent line at x=1 is 4.

(F)

To determine

To find: The value of f(1).

(F)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1RE

The value of f(1) is 4.

Explanation of Solution

Theorem used:

Power rule:

“If f(x)=xn, where n is a real number, then f(x)=nx(n1).

Also, y=nx(n1) and dydx=nx(n1)”.

Sum and difference property:

“If f(x)=u(x)±v(x), then f(x)=u(x)±v(x).

Also, y=u±v and dydx=dudx±dvdx”.

Constant Function rule:

“If f(x)=C is a constant function, then f(x)=0.

Also, y=0 and dydx=0”.

Calculation:

Compute the derivative of f(x).

f(x)=(2x2+5)=(2x2)+(5)           [By sum and difference rule]=4x+0                     [By power and constant rule]=4

Substitute x=1 in f(x)=4x and simplify it as follows.

f(x)=4(1)=4

Therefore, the value of f(1) is 4.
