At what point, the slope of the curve y = – x3 + 3x2 + 9x – 27 is maximum? Also find the maximum slope. |
|
Answer» Given, curve y = – x3 + 3x2 + 9x – 27 Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get dy/dx = -3x2 + 6x + 9 Let slope of the curve dy/dx = z So, z = -3x2 + 6x + 9 Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get dz/dx = -6x + 6 For local maxima and local minima, dz/dx = 0 -6x + 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 1 d2z/dx2 = -6 < 0 Maxima Putting x = 1 in equation of the curve y = (-1)3 + 3(1)2 + 9(1) – 27 = -1 + 3 + 9 – 27 = -16 Maximum slope = -3(1)2 + 6(1) + 9 = 12 Therefore, (1, -16) is the point at which the slope of the given curve is maximum and maximum slope = 12. |
|
| 115806. |
Find the equation of all lines having slope 2 which are tangents to the curvey = \(\frac{1}{x - 3},\) x ≠ 3 |
|
Answer» slope of the line = 2 slope of the curve = \(\frac{-1}{(x - 3)^2}\) \(\frac{-1}{(x - 3)^2}\) = 2 ⇒ 2(x -3)2 = -1 ⇒ 2(x2 – 6x + 9) = -1 ⇒ 2x2 – 12x + 19 = 0 which has no real roots b2 – 4ac < 0 Hence there is no point on the curve |
|
| 115807. |
Find the slope of the tangent to the curve y = x3 – 3x + 2 at the point whose x-coordinate is 3. |
|
Answer» \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) = 3x2 – 3 dx slope at x = 3 is 3 (9) – 3 = 24. |
|
| 115808. |
Find the points on the curve y = x3 at which the slope of the tangent is equal to the y-coordinate of the point. |
|
Answer» y = x3 \(\frac{dy}{dx}\)= 3x2, Given that \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) = y = x3 ∴ 3x2 = x3 ⇒ x2 (3 – x) = 0 ⇒ x = 0 or x = 3 when x = 3, y = 33 = 27, when x = 0, y = 0 ∴ The required points are (0, 0), (3, 27). |
|
| 115809. |

|
Answer» Correct answer is (a) x + 2y = 0 The point of intersection of the curve with the Y-axis is the origin (0, 0). |
|
