Q. 2

Page 236

If f is a differentiable function, then the values x=cat which the sign of the derivative f'x changes are the locations of the local extrema of f. Use this information to find the local extrema of the functionrole="math" localid="1649873816717" f(x)=sinx. Illustrate your answer on a graph ofy=sinx.

Examples: Construct examples of the thing(s) described in the following. Try to find examples that are different than any in the reading.

(a) The graph of a function whose associated slope function f'is positive on (−∞, 2) and negative on (2,∞).

(b) The graph of a function with the following three properties: The average rate of change of f on [0, 2] is 3, the average rate of change of f on [0, 1] is −1, and the average rate of change of f on [−2, 2] is 0.

(c) The graph of a function f with the following three properties: The instantaneous rate of change of f at x = 2 is zero, the average rate of change of f on [1, 2] is 2, and the average rate of change of f on [2, 4] is 1.

The derivative of a smooth function fat a point x=ccan also be approximated with a symmetric difference quotient:

f'(c)≈f(c+h)-f(c-h)2h

(a) Use a graph to illustrate what the symmetric difference measures. Why would it be reasonable to use the two-sided symmetric difference to approximate f'(c)?(Hint: Your answer should involve a certain kind of secant line and a discussion of what happens as h gets close to 0.)

(b) Use a sequence of symmetric difference approximations to estimate the derivative of f(x)=x2atx=3Illustrate your answer with a sequence of graphs.
