Solution by Steps

step 1

Given the function

f(x) = m x^2 + 1

and its inverse, we need to find the value of

m

where the graphs touch at a point

step 2

The inverse function

f^{-1}(x)

can be found by solving

y = m x^2 + 1

for

x

step 3

Rearrange

y = m x^2 + 1

to

x^2 = \frac{y - 1}{m}

, so

x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{y - 1}{m}}

step 4

Since the graphs touch at a point,

f(x) = f^{-1}(x)

. Therefore,

m x^2 + 1 = x

step 5

Solve

m x^2 + 1 = x

for

x

:

m x^2 - x + 1 = 0

step 6

For the graphs to touch, the quadratic equation must have a double root. The discriminant

\Delta

must be zero:

\Delta = b^2 - 4ac = (-1)^2 - 4(m)(1) = 0

step 7

Solve for

m

:

1 - 4m = 0 \implies m = \frac{1}{4}

Question 1b

step 1

Substitute

m = \frac{1}{4}

back into the equation

m x^2 + 1 = x

:

\frac{1}{4} x^2 + 1 = x

step 2

Solve

\frac{1}{4} x^2 - x + 1 = 0

for

x

:

x = 2

step 3

Find

y

by substituting

x = 2

into

f(x)

:

y = \frac{1}{4} (2)^2 + 1 = 2

step 4

The coordinates of the point where the two graphs touch are

(2, 2)

Answer

The value of

m

is

\frac{1}{4}

. The coordinates of the point where the two graphs touch are

(2, 2)

.

Question 2a

step 1

Given

f'(x) = 3(x-1)^2 + m

, we need to find the values of

m

for

f(x)

to have two stationary points, one stationary point, and no stationary point

step 2

A stationary point occurs where

f'(x) = 0

step 3

Solve

3(x-1)^2 + m = 0

for

x

:

3(x-1)^2 = -m

step 4

For

f(x)

to have two stationary points, -m > 0 \implies m < 0

step 5

For

f(x)

to have one stationary point,

-m = 0 \implies m = 0

step 6

For

f(x)

to have no stationary point, -m < 0 \implies m > 0

Question 2b

step 1

To write down a possible

f(x)

with no stationary point, we need m > 0

step 2

Choose

m = 1

for simplicity

step 3

Integrate

f'(x) = 3(x-1)^2 + 1

to find

f(x)

step 4

f(x) = \int (3(x-1)^2 + 1) \, dx = \int 3(x^2 - 2x + 1) + 1 \, dx = x^3 - 3x^2 + 3x + C

Answer

For

f(x)

to have two stationary points, m < 0. For one stationary point,

m = 0

. For no stationary point, m > 0. A possible

f(x)

with no stationary point is

x^3 - 3x^2 + 3x + C

.

Explanation

The discriminant of a quadratic equation determines the number of real roots, which in turn affects the number of stationary points of a function.

Solution by Steps

step 1

Given the polynomial function

f(x) = 16x^4 + 8x^3 + 7

, we need to find the remainder when

f(x)

is divided by

2x - 1

step 2

Using the Polynomial Remainder Theorem, the remainder of

f(x)

divided by

2x - 1

is

f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)

step 3

Calculate

f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)

:

f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = 16\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^4 + 8\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^3 + 7 = 16 \cdot \frac{1}{16} + 8 \cdot \frac{1}{8} + 7 = 1 + 1 + 7 = 9

Therefore, the remainder is 9

# Part (b)

step 1

To translate

f(x)

so that the resulting graph intersects the

x

-axis at

\left(\frac{1}{2}, 0\right)

, we need to find a vertical shift

k

such that

f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) + k = 0

step 2

Since

f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = 9

, we need

9 + k = 0

, so

k = -9

step 3

The translated function is

f(x) - 9

# Part (c)

step 1

Given

g(x) = 2(2x - 1)(4x^3 + px^2 + qx + 1)

, we need to determine the values of

p

and

q

such that

g(x) = 16x^4 + 8x^3 + 7 - 9

step 2

Expand

g(x)

:

g(x) = 2(2x - 1)(4x^3 + px^2 + qx + 1) = 2(8x^4 + 2px^3 + 2qx^2 + 2x - 4x^3 - px^2 - qx - 1)

= 16x^4 + (4p - 8)x^3 + (2q - p)x^2 + (2 - q)x - 2

step 3 ⋮ Equate coefficients with

16x^4 + 8x^3 + 7 - 9 = 16x^4 + 8x^3 - 2

:

4p - 8 = 8 \implies p = 4

2q - p = 0 \implies 2q - 4 = 0 \implies q = 2

Therefore,

p = 4

and

q = 2

.

Solution by Steps

step 1

To apply the quotient rule to the given function, we start with the function

y = \frac{20}{x^3}(1 - 2 \log_2(x))

step 2

The quotient rule states that for a function

y = \frac{u}{v}

, the derivative

\frac{dy}{dx}

is given by

\frac{v \frac{du}{dx} - u \frac{dv}{dx}}{v^2}

step 3

Here,

u = 20(1 - 2 \log_2(x))

and

v = x^3

step 4

Compute

\frac{du}{dx}

:

\frac{d}{dx}[20(1 - 2 \log_2(x))] = 20 \cdot (-2) \cdot \frac{1}{x \ln(2)} = -\frac{40}{x \ln(2)}

step 5

Compute

\frac{dv}{dx}

:

\frac{d}{dx}[x^3] = 3x^2

Substitute into the quotient rule:

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x^3 \cdot (-\frac{40}{x \ln(2)}) - 20(1 - 2 \log_2(x)) \cdot 3x^2}{(x^3)^2}

step 7

Simplify the expression:

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-40x^2}{x \ln(2) \cdot x^6} - \frac{60x^2(1 - 2 \log_2(x))}{x^6} = \frac{-40}{x^5 \ln(2)} - \frac{60(1 - 2 \log_2(x))}{x^4}

step 8

Combine the terms:

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-40}{x^5 \ln(2)} - \frac{60}{x^4} + \frac{120 \log_2(x)}{x^4}

step 9

Factor out common terms:

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{x^4} \left( \frac{-40}{x \ln(2)} - 60 + 120 \log_2(x) \right)

step 10

Simplify further:

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{x^4} \left( -\frac{40}{x \ln(2)} - 60 + 120 \log_2(x) \right)

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{x^4} \left( -\frac{40}{x \ln(2)} - 60 + 120 \log_2(x) \right)
