Part A
(a)
(b) It appears that the rate of change of f, while negative, is increasing.
This implies that the graph of f is concave upward.
(c) L = 7.6(0.7) + 5.7(0.3) + 4.2(0.5) + 3.1(0.6) + 2.2(0.4) = 11.87.
(d) Using disks ∆V = πr^2 ∆x. One possible answer uses the left endpoints
of the subintervals as values of r:
V ≈ π(7.6)^2 (0.7) + π(5.7)^2 (0.3) + π(4.2)^2 (0.5) + π(3.1)^2 (0.6) + π(2.2)^2 (0.4)
(a) 12 y 0 + 0.3 = 24 yields y 0 1.975.
(b) Replace x by 0.3 in the equation of the curve:
The calculator’s solution to three decimal places is y 0 = 1.990.
(c) Since the true value of y 0 at x = 0.3 exceeds the approximation,
conclude that the given curve is concave up near x = 0. (Therefore, it is
above the line tangent at x = 0.)
