Optimization
Optimization comes from the same root as "optimal". "Optimal" means the highest. When you do the optimization process, that is when you are "making it best" to maximize everything and to achieve optimal results, a set of parameters is the base for the selection of the best element for a given system.
Integration
Integration means to sum the things. In mathematics, it is the branch of Calculus which is used to find the area under the curve. The operation subtraction is the inverse of addition, division is the inverse of multiplication. In the same way, integration and differentiation are inverse operators. Differential equations give a relation between a function and its derivative.
Application of Integration
In mathematics, the process of integration is used to compute complex area related problems. With the application of integration, solving area related problems, whether they are a curve, or a curve between lines, can be done easily.
Volume
In mathematics, we describe the term volume as a quantity that can express the total space that an object occupies at any point in time. Usually, volumes can only be calculated for 3-dimensional objects. By 3-dimensional or 3D objects, we mean objects that have length, breadth, and height (or depth).
Area
Area refers to the amount of space a figure encloses and the number of square units that cover a shape. It is two-dimensional and is measured in square units.
![### Problem Statement on Tangent Lines
Consider the curve defined by the equation:
\[ 6x + 4y^2 - y = 6 \]
**a. Determine the points where the curve has a vertical tangent line.**
To solve this, you need to find the points on the curve where the derivative \( \frac{dy}{dx} \) is undefined.
**b. Does the curve have any horizontal tangent lines?**
To solve this, you need to find the points on the curve where the derivative \( \frac{dy}{dx} \) is zero.
### Analysis:
- **Vertical Tangent Line**: This occurs where the denominator of the derivative is zero.
- **Horizontal Tangent Line**: This occurs where the numerator of the derivative is zero.
To find these:
1. Differentiate the implicit equation \( 6x + 4y^2 - y = 6 \) with respect to \( x \) to find \( \frac{dy}{dx} \).
2. Use the conditions for vertical and horizontal tangents to solve the problems accordingly.
To graphically interpret these tangent lines:
- **Vertical Tangent Line**: Look for points where the slope of the curve tends to infinity.
- **Horizontal Tangent Line**: Look for points where the curve is not changing in the vertical direction (zero slope).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fa1de489e-8c51-4ba0-8d15-cf142b4b6c4d%2Fec899eab-700d-4873-b94a-10d3bd92cf2b%2Fcl8gkb8.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
