Chapter 2: Q. 76 (page 234)

In Exercises 72鈥�77, find a function f that has the given derivative f. In each case you can find the answer with an educated guess-and-check process. (Some of these exercises involve hyperbolic functions.)
$f' (x) = \frac{1}{9 - x^{2}}$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The function that has the derivative $f' (x) = \frac{1}{9 - x^{2}}$ is $f (x) = \frac{1}{3} \tan h^{- 1} (\frac{x}{3})$ .

Step by step solution

Step 1. Given Information.

The derivative:

$f' (x) = \frac{1}{9 - x^{2}}$

Step 2. Guess the formula for the given derivative.

We know that,

$\frac{d}{d x} (\tan h^{- 1} x) = \frac{1}{1 - x^{2}}$

So we can conclude that the derivative will be of the form of hyperbolic sinefunction.

Step 3. Check guess-and-check process.

Consider the function,

$f (x) = \tan h^{- 1} (\frac{x}{3}) f' (x) = \frac{1}{1 - {(\frac{x}{3})}^{2}} . \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3 (1 - \frac{x^{2}}{9})} = \frac{1}{(\frac{9 - x^{2}}{3})} = \frac{3}{9 - x^{2}}$

which is not a given derivative.

Step 4. Check another function.

Consider the function,

$f (x) = \frac{1}{3} \tan h^{- 1} (\frac{x}{3}) f' (x) = \frac{1}{3} (\frac{1}{1 - {(\frac{x}{3})}^{2}} . \frac{1}{3}) = \frac{1}{3} (\frac{1}{3 (1 - \frac{x^{2}}{9})}) = \frac{1}{3} (\frac{1}{(\frac{9 - x^{2}}{3})}) = \frac{1}{3} (\frac{3}{9 - x^{2}}) = \frac{1}{1 - 9 x^{2}}$

which is the given derivative.

So the function is $f (x) = \frac{1}{3} \tan h^{- 1} (\frac{x}{3})$ .
