Class

Time allowed: 15 minutes. 1. (2 marks) On the same axes, sketch the graphs of y = |2x 7| and y = 3x 2. Hence, or otherwise, solve |2x 7| = 3x 2.

2. (2 marks) Show that f (x) = x3 + 6x2 + 15x + 3 has an inverse function.

3. (4 marks) Determine a, b, c, d such that sin = 8

a + b 2 and cos = 8

c + d 2.

4. (2 marks) d Find cosh(sin x). dx

1. |2x 7| = 3x 2 2x 7 = 3x 2 or (2x 7) = 3x 2 2x 5 = 3x or 5x = 9 x = 5 or x = 9 . 5 However, when x = 5, |2x 7| = 17 and 3x 2 = 17, so 9 x = is the only solution. 5

Figure 1: y = |2x 7| and y = 3x 2

2. f (x) = x3 + 6x2 + 15x + 3 f (x) = 3x2 + 12x + 15 = 3(x2 + 4x + 5) = 3((x + 2)2 + 1) 0 for all x R. Since the curve is monotonic increasing, it is one-to-one. [Also, since f (x) is a cubic polynomial, it is onto.] Thus, it has an inverse function.

3. According to the double angle formulae, cos 2x = 1 2 sin2 x = 2 cos2 x 1. Substituting x = gives: 8 cos = 1 2 sin2 4 8 1 2 sin2 = 1 8 2 2 1 2 sin = 8 2 4 (taking the positive square root, since a= 1 1 and b = . 2 4

is in quadrant 1).

Substituting x = gives: 8 cos = 2 cos2 1 4 8 1 2 cos2 = +1 8 2 2 2 1 cos = + 8 4 2 (taking the positive square root, since c= 1 1 and d = . 2 4

is in quadrant 1).
