#
67. (a) The square of the distance is Daxb x  $#  x  ! x#  #x  *% , so Dw axb #x  # and the critical

point occurs at x ". Since Dw axb  ! for x  " and Dw axb  ! for x  ", the critical point corresponds to the
minimum distance. The minimum distance is Da"b

&
# .

(b)

The minimum distance is from the point $# ! to the point a" "b on the graph of y x, and this occurs at the

value x " where Daxb, the distance squared, has its minimum value.
68. (a) Calculus Method:

The square of the distance from the point " $ to x "'  x# is given by
#

Daxb ax  "b#  "'  x#  $ x#  #x  "  "'  x#  #%)  $x#  $  #x  #!  #%)  $x# .


Then Dw axb  #

'x

Solving Dw axb ! we have: 'x #%)  $x#

$'x# %a%)  $x# b *x# %)  $x# "#x# %) x #. We discard x # as an extraneous solution,


leaving x #. Since Dw axb  ! for %  x  # and Dw axb  ! for #  x  %, the critical point corresponds to the
minimum distance. The minimum distance is Da#b #.
Geometry Method:
The semicircle is centered at the origin and has radius %. The distance from the origin to " $ is
#

"#  $ #. The shortest distance from the point to the semicircle is the distance along the radius
containing the point " $. That distance is %  # #.

90. Yes. If F(x) and G(x) both solve the initial value problem on an interval I then they both have the same first derivative.
Therefore, by Corollary 2 of the Mean Value Theorem there is a constant C such that F(x) G(x)  C for all x. In
particular, F(x! ) G(x! )  C, so C F(x! )  G(x! ) 0. Hence F(x) G(x) for all x.

(b) True. Given an antiderivative f(t) of the velocity function, we know that the body's position function is
s f(t)  C for some constant C. Therefore, the displacement from t a to t b is (f(b)  C)  (f(a)  C)
f(b)  f(a). Thus we can find the displacement from any antiderivative f as the numerical difference
f(b)  f(a) without knowing the exact values of C and s.

Chapter 4 Practice Exercises

Mathematica: (functions and values may vary)


The following commands use the definite integral and the Fundamental Theorem of calculus to construct the solution
of the initial value problems for exercises 103 - 105.
Clear[x, y, yprime]
yprime[x_] = Cos[x]2  Sin[x];
initxvalue = 1; inityvalue = 1;
y[x_] = Integrate[yprime[t], {t, initxvalue, x}]  inityvalue
If the solution satisfies the differential equation and initial condition, the following yield True
yprime[x]==D[y[x], x] //Simplify
y[initxvalue]==inityvalue
Since exercise 106 is a second order differential equation, two integrations will be required.
Clear[x, y, yprime]
y2prime[x_] = 3 Exp[x/2]  1;
initxval = 0; inityval = 4; inityprimeval = 1;
yprime[x_] = Integrate[y2prime[t],{t, initxval, x}]  inityprimeval
y[x_] = Integrate[yprime[t], {t, initxval, x}]  inityval
Verify that y[x] solves the differential equation and initial condition and plot the solution (red) and its derivative (blue).
y2prime[x]==D[y[x], {x, 2}]//Simplify
y[initxval]==inityval
yprime[initxval]==inityprimeval

Since f w  0 if x  1 and f w  0 if x  1, f(1) 16 is the absolute maximum.

so that f     . Thus f w changes sign at x $ from

positive to negative so there is a local maximum at x $ which has a value f(3) 1.
f (x)

5. Yes, because at each point of [! " except x 0, the function's value is a local minimum value as well as a
local maximum value. At x 0 the function's value, 0, is not a local minimum value because each open
interval around x 0 on the x-axis contains points to the left of 0 where f equals 1.
6. (a) The first derivative of the function f(x) x$ is zero at x 0 even though f has no local extreme value at x 0.
(b) Theorem 2 says only that if f is differentiable and f has a local extreme at x c then f w (c) 0. It does not
assert the (false) reverse implication f w (c) 0 f has a local extreme at x c.

Chapter 4 Applications of Derivatives

7. No, because the interval 0  x  1 fails to be closed. The Extreme Value Theorem says that if the function is continuous
throughout a finite closed interval a x b then the existence of absolute extrema is guaranteed on that interval.
8. The absolute maximum is k1k 1 and the absolute minimum is k0k 0. This is not inconsistent with the Extreme Value
Theorem for continuous functions, which says a continuous function on a closed interval attains its extreme values on that
interval. The theorem says nothing about the behavior of a continuous function on an interval which is half open and half
closed, such as " ", so there is nothing to contradict.

2. No, the function f(x)

3. On an open interval the extreme values of a continuous function (if any) must occur at an interior critical
point. On a half-open interval the extreme values of a continuous function may be at a critical point or at the
closed endpoint. Extreme values occur only where f w 0, f w does not exist, or at the endpoints of the interval.
Thus the extreme points will not be at the ends of an open interval.
4. The pattern f w      indicates a local maximum at x 1 and a local

5. (a) If yw 6(x  1)(x  2)# , then yw  0 for x  1 and yw  0 for x  1. The sign pattern is
f w    f has a local minimum at x 1. Also yww 6(x  2)#  12(x  1)(x  2)
"
#
6(x  2)(3x) yw w  0 for x  0 or x  2, while yww  0 for 0  x  2. Therefore f has points of inflection
at x 0 and x 2. There is no local maximum.
(b) If yw 6x(x  1)(x  2), then yw  0 for x  1 and 0  x  2; yw  0 for "  x  0 and x  2. The sign

7. If f is continuous on [a c) and f w (x) 0 on [a c), then by the Mean Value Theorem for all x [a c) we have
