QUESTION 1
 Show that f(x) = -x2 + 10x + 9 is increasing at x = 4.
 F’(x) = -2x + 10
 F’(4) = -2(4) +10
 F’(4) = 2 > 0
 This function is increasing at x = 4.
QUESTION 2A
 Check whether y = Sin(x) is decreasing on ( π/2, π)
 π = 1800
 π/2 = 900
 Y’(x) = cosx
 Y’(π/2) = 0
 Y’(π) = -1
 This function is decreasing at (π/2, π)
QUESTION 2B
 Check whether y = Sin(x) is increasing or decreasing on

(0, π/2)
 π = 1800
 π/2 = 900
 Y’(x) = cosx
 Y’(0) = 0
 Y’(π/2) = -1
 This function is decreasing at (0, π/2)
QUESTION 3
 Find extreme values of f(x) = x4 - 8x2
SOLUTION F’’(x) = 12x2 – 16
 f(x) = x4 - 8x2
 F’(x) = 4x3 – 16x F’’(0) = -16 < 0 The function has max value at x =0
 4x3 - 16x = 0 F’’(-2) = 32 > 0 The function has min value at x = -2
F’’(2) = 32 >0 The function has min value at x = 2
 4x(x2 – 4) = 0
 We know that a2 - b2 = (a + b)(a - b)
 4x(x2 – 22) = 0
 4x(x+2)(x-2)=0
 Either 4x = 0, or (x+2) = 0, or (x-2) = 0
 x = 0, x = -2, x = 2
QUESTION 4
 Check whether f(x) = x2 + 5 is increasing at x = 3.

 F’(x) = 2x
 F(3) = 2(3) = 6 >0
 The function is increasing at x = 3.
QUESTION 5
Find extreme values of f(x) = sinx + cosx on [0, 2π]
 F’(x) = cosx – sinx  x = 450 or pi / 4
 F”(x) = -sinx - cosx  Another value pi/4 + pi
 For extreme values we put F’(X) = 0  tan(π/4 + π) = tan (5π/4) = 1
 Cosx – sinx = 0  F”(π/4) = - sin(π/4) - cos(π/4)
 Cosx = sinx  F”(π/4) = - < 0 (Maximum Value)
 Dividing both sides by cosx
 F”(5π/4) = - sin(5π/4) - cos(5π/4)
 Cosx/cosx = sinx/cosx
 F”(5π/4) = > 0 (Minimum Value)
 1 = tanx
 F”(0) = - sin (0) – cos (0) = -1 (Max Value)
 tanx =1
 F”(2π) = - sin(2π) – cos(2π) = -1 (Max Value)
 x =tan-1(1)
The given function has min value at 5π/4 and max value at 0, 2π, and π/4
