- Tangent line of a graph of f(x)=x(b^x)at x=1 is equal to the tangent line for the graph of g(x)=-4-sin(1-e5x) at x=0. a)what is the value of the positive constant b, and what is the equation of the tangent line?arrow_forwardDerivatives from tangent lines Suppose the line tangent to the graphof f at x = 2 is y = 4x + 1 and suppose the line tangent to thegraph of g at x = 2 has slope 3 and passes through (0, -2). Find anequation of the line tangent to the following curves at x = 2.a. y = f(x) + g(x)b. y = f(x) - 2g(x)c. y = 4f(x)arrow_forwardA right triangle has one vertex on the graph of y = x3, x > 0, at (x, y) another at the origin, and the third on the positive y-axis at (0, y).

Set up a coordinate system where the poles are placed at x=−15 and x=15, where x is measured in feet. The height (in feet) of the cable at position x is h(x) = 17cosh(x/17) where cosh(x) = (e^x+e^-x)/2 is the hyperbolic cosine, which is an important function in physics and engineering. The cable is ______ feet long?arrow_forward
- Van der Waals Equation In Exercise 18 at the end of Section 2.3, we discussed the ideal gas law, which shows the relationship among volume V, pressure p, and temperature T for a fixed amount 1 mole of a gas. But chemists believe that in many situations, the van der Waals equation gives more accurate results. If we measure temperature T in kelvins, volume V in liters, and pressure p in atmosphere 1 atm is the pressure exerted by the atmosphere at sea level, then the relationship for carbon dioxide is given by p=0.082TV0.0433.592V2atm What volume does this equation predict for 1 mole of carbon dioxide at 500 kelvins and 100 atm?Suggestion: Consider volumes ranging from 0.1 to 1 liter.arrow_forwardMaximum Sales Growth This is a continuation of Exercise 10. In this exercise, we determine how the sales level that gives the maximum growth rate is related to the limit on sales. Assume, as above, that the constant of proportionality is 0.3, but now suppose that sales grow to a level of 4 thousand dollars in the limit. a. Write an equation that shows the proportionality relation for G. b. On the basis of the equation from part a, make a graph of G as a function of s. c. At what sales level is the growth rate as large as possible? d. Replace the limit of 4 thousand dollars with another number, and find at what sales level the growth rate is as large as possible. What is the relationship between the limit and the sales level that gives the largest growth rate? Does this relationship change if the proportionality constant is changed? e. Use your answers in part d to explain how to determine the limit if we are given sales data showing the sales up to a point where the growth rate begins to decrease.arrow_forward
