Assignment 3 Due : 4pm Friday 21 September MAS182 Applied Mathematics Semester 2, 2012 Mathematics and Statistics Please show all your working. Where possible give the exact answer. 1. Find the equation for the tangent at x = 1 to the curve given by the solutions of (1 - x)y 3 - y x 3 = 5 - 4xy. 2. A grain silo has sprung a leak and the leaking grain is forming a conical pile below the silo. The grain is leaking at a rate of 0.6m3 /hour. If the base width of the pile is always 1.5 times the height of the pile, how fast is the pile increasing in height when it is 2m high? 3. Let f(x) = 5 + (2x + 3) ln(v x + x - 1) (i) Find the derivative of f. (ii) Using the derivative, estimate f(1.1) (Hint: Linear Approximation). 4. Find the following integrals. Make sure you use calculus and show all your working. (i) ? 3x(x 2 - 4)2/3 dx (ii) ? x 2 - 2 x 3 - 6x + 1 dx (iii) ? 4 1 e -t/4 + t -2 dt (iv) ? 4 0 v x v x v x + 7 dx. 5. Using calculus and showing all your working find the area bounded by the curves f(x) = x 3 - x 2 + x and g(x) = 2x 2 - x.
