3. For the function y=x² In x, determine the critical values if x > 0.
APPLICATION
4. The amount of radioactive carbon-14 left in a sample of biological material over time is given by the
in 2
equation A=10e 5700 where A is the amount of carbon-14 in grams, and t is the time in years.
Determine the rate that the carbon-14 is decomposing when there are 4 grams remaining. Decimals
allowed.
5. Determine the equation for the tangent to the curve f(x)=In(1+e') when the tangent is parallel
to the line x-2y = 0.
6. The tension in a rope that is being used to drag an object with a mass 100 kg across the floor is
given by the equation below where T is tension in Newtons and is the angle between the rope
and the surface. (Friction has already been factored into the equation.) Determine the angle that
minimizes the tension in the rope (to the nearest hundredth of a radian). Remember to check.
