Y 2     =   nDeriv(Y 1 ,X,X)

Y 3     =   nDeriv(Y 2 ,X,X)

Graph   Y 3     and find    its zero.

Make    sure    that    only    the equation    sign    in  Y 3     is  darkened.

Press   2nd and TRACE   to  access  the CALC    menu.

Select  2:zero  and press   ENTER,  and a   graph   will    appear.

Move    the cursor  anywhere    to  the left    of  where   the second  derivative  graph   crosses the x-axis,
and press ENTER to mark the left bound.

Move    the cursor  anywhere    to  the right   of  where   the second  derivative  graph   crosses the x-axis,
and press ENTER to mark the right bound.

Press   ENTER   when    you are prompted    for a   guess.

The bottom  of  the graph   will    now show    “Zero”  and the value   of  x   when    y   =   0.

x   =   2.9999996   when    y   =   0


  1. C First, rewrite the integral as .


Now,    we  can use u-substitution  to  evaluate    the integral.   Let u   =   cos x.  Then    du  =   −sin    x.  We
can also change the limits of integration. The lower limit becomes cos 0 = 1 and the upper limit
becomes cos 1, which we leave alone. Now we perform the substitution, and we get

Evaluating  the integral,   we  get −ln u   =   −ln(cos 1)  +   ln  1   =   −ln(cos 1). This    log is  also

equal   to  ln(sec1).


  1. C In order to find the average value, we use the Mean Value Theorem for Integrals, which says


that    the average value   of  f(x)    on  the interval    [a, b]  is   f(x)   dx.
