1.

Find the equations of the tangent and the normal to the curve f(x) =
9 : √<
at the point (9, 0.5)
<=9
2. Differentiate with respect to x: y= (x- l)(x+ 3)2
3. Differentiate each expression using the quotient rule.
<L = M
a. y =
M<=<L

9:P<
b. Y =
√9=<L

4.

b. Find the x-coordinates of all points on the graph of y where the
tangent to the curve is parallel to the x-axis.
9
5. Find the equation(s) of any normal to the curve y = x + at points
Q
where the tangent

is parallel to the line y = -3x.

6.

Find the values of x for which the graphs of f and g have the same
gradient.
7. A cardboard box manufacturer makes open boxes by cutting equal
squares of side length
x cm from the corners of a rectangular piece of cardboard measuring
15 cm by 24 cm. The sides are then folded up, as shown in the
diagram. Find * so that the volume of the box is maximized, and find
the maximum volume of the box. Check your answers graphically.
8. A 150 cm length of wire is cut into two pieces. One of the pieces is
bent to form a square with side length s cm, and the other piece is
bent to form a rectangle with a side length that is twice its width.
Find the value of s which minimizes the sum of the areas enclosed by
the square and rectangle.
