(a)

Answer to Problem 94E
Zeros of polynomial are -2.81,-0.832 and 0.642
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
In this theorem the values where sign was changing whose domain lies in the interval contain one zero as at that interval the line of equation intersect the axis and at the point of intersection zeros of polynomial present.
The table for the polynomial
x | f(x) |
-3 | + |
-2 | - |
-1 | - |
0 | + |
1 | - |
2 | - |
So the signs were change in the interval of (-3, 2), (-1, 0) and (0, 1) so the zeros of polynomial are in the intervals.

To Approximate: the zeros of a function.
(b)

Answer to Problem 94E
Zeros of polynomial are -2.81,-0.832 and 0.642
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
Adjusting the interval by 0.1 , 0.01 ,0.001 and 0.0001
x | f(x) |
-3.0 | - |
-2.8 | + |
x | f(x) |
-2.8 | - |
-2.81 | + |
x | f(x) |
-2.810 | - |
-2.811 | + |
X | f(x) |
-2.8100 | - |
-2.8101 | + |
So one zero of polynomial is -2.81
Similarly for the interval (-1, 0) and (0, 1) the other two zeros are -0.832 and 0.642

- (b) Find the (instantaneous) rate of change of y at x = 5. In the previous part, we found the average rate of change for several intervals of decreasing size starting at x = 5. The instantaneous rate of change of fat x = 5 is the limit of the average rate of change over the interval [x, x + h] as h approaches 0. This is given by the derivative in the following limit. lim h→0 - f(x + h) − f(x) h The first step to find this limit is to compute f(x + h). Recall that this means replacing the input variable x with the expression x + h in the rule defining f. f(x + h) = (x + h)² - 5(x+ h) = 2xh+h2_ x² + 2xh + h² 5✔ - 5 )x - 5h Step 4 - The second step for finding the derivative of fat x is to find the difference f(x + h) − f(x). - f(x + h) f(x) = = (x² x² + 2xh + h² - ])- = 2x + h² - 5h ])x-5h) - (x² - 5x) = ]) (2x + h - 5) Macbook Proarrow_forwardEvaluate the integral using integration by parts.
