y (x) = 2x – x2

y? (x) = 2x log 2 – 2x

M = 3

N = 2

M + N = 5

y = x3

d y d x = 3 x 2 ⇒ d y d x | ( t , t 3 ) = 3 t 2

Equation of tangent y – t3 = 3t2 (x – t) 

Let again meet the curve at Q ( t 1 , t 1 3 )

⇒ t 1 3 − t 3 = 3 t 2 ( t 1 − t )

t 1 2 + t t 1 + t 2 = 3 t 2 [ ? t 1 ≠ t ]

t 1 2 + t t 1 − 2 t 2 = 0

=> t1 = -2t

Required ordinate = 2 t 3 + t 1 3 3 = 2 t 3 − 8 t 3 3 = − 2 t 3

Given f(X) = ∫ 1 x l o g e t ( 1 + t ) d t . . . . . . . . . . . . ( i )  

So   f ( 1 x ) = ∫ 1 1 / x λ l o g e t 1 + t d t . . . . . . . . . . . . ( i i )

put t = 1 z       t h e n     d t = − 1 z 2 d z  

f ( 1 x ) = ∫ 1 x l o g e t t ( 1 + t ) d t . . . . . . . . . . . . ( i i i )

(i) + (iii), f(x) + f ( 1 x ) = ∫ 1 x ( l o g e t 1 + t + l o g e t t ( 1 + t ) ) d t

= [ ( l o g e t ) 2 2 ] 1 x = ( l o g x x ) 2 2

Hence f(e) + f ( 1 e ) = 1 2

d y d x = 3 a x 2 − 2 b x

d y d x | x = 1 = 3 a − 2 b = 3

a = 2 b + 3 3 ∈ [ 1 , 2 ]

2 b + 3 ∈ [ 3 , 6 ]

2 b ∈ [ 0 , 3 ]

b ∈ [ 0 , 3 2 ]

f (x) = x? /20 - x? /12 + 5
f' (x) = x? /4 - x³/3 = x³ (x/4 - 1/3)
Local maxima at 0, Local minima at 4/3
f' (x) = x³ - x² = x² (x-1)
x = 1 point of inflection

y = (3/2)sin (2θ)
x = e^θ sinθ
dy/dθ = 3cos (2θ)
dx/dθ = e^θ (cosθ + sinθ)
dy/dx = (3cos (2θ) / (e^θ (cosθ + sinθ) = (3 (cosθ - sinθ) / e^θ

f (x) = (4a - 3) (x + ln5) + 2 (a - 7)cot (x/2)sin² (x/2)
= (4a - 3) (x + ln5) + (a - 7)sin (x)
f' (x) = (4a - 3) + (a - 7)cos (x)
For critical points f' (x) = 0
cos (x) = - (4a - 3) / (a - 7) = (3 - 4a) / (a - 7)
⇒ -1 ≤ (3 - 4a) / (a - 7) ≤ 1
Solving this inequality leads to:
⇒ a ∈ [4/3, 2]

f (2)=8, f' (2)=5, f' (x) ≥ 1, f' (x) ≥ 4, ∀x ∈ (1,6)
Using LMVT
f' (x) = (f' (5) - f' (2)/ (5-2) ≥ 4 ⇒ f' (5) ≥ 17
f' (x) = (f (5) - f (2)/ (5-2) ≥ 1 ⇒ f (5) ≥ 11
Therefore f' (5) + f (5) ≥ 28
