15. Find a solution (using ln x) to the differential equation f 0 (x) = 3/x satisfying f (1) = 2 Using the hint provided, let’s first guess that f (x) = ln x. If f (x) = ln x, then f 0 (x) = 1/x, but we want f 0 (x) = 3/x, so let’s multiply our fist guess of f (x) = ln x by 3 to get f (x) = 3 ln x. Then f 0 (x) = 3/x. Now let’s consider that we want f (1) = 2. Currently f (1) = ln 1 = 0, so let’s add 2 to our f (x) equation to get f (x) = 3 ln x + 2. Now f 0 (x) = 3/x and f (1) = 2. 16. (a) Find a formula using the natural logarithm function giving the solution of y 0 = a/x with y(1) = b. Solution: In problem 15 we saw that if y 0 = 3/x and y(1) = 2, then y(x) = 3 ln x + 2. So similarly if y 0 = a/x with y(1) = b, then y = a ln x + b. (b) Solve P 0 = 2/t with P (1) = 5. Solution: Using the general equation y = a ln t + b for y 0 = a/t and y(1) = b, in this problem we have a = 2 and b = 5, so y = 2 ln t + 5.

PP 269 1. Find a formula y = F (t) for a solution to the differential equation dy/dt = f (t) when f (t) is: (a) 5t − 3 Solution: F (t) =

5e4t − ln t. 4

2. Find G(5) if y = G(x) is a solution to the initial value problem: dy 1 = 2 dx x

y(2) = 3.

Solution: We take the antiderivative of dy/dx = 1/x2 to find that y = −1/x + C. But we’re given that y(2) = −1/2 + C = 3, which implies that C = 7/2. So G(x) = y = −1/x + 7/2, thus G(5) = −1/5 + 7/2 = 33/10. 3. Find F (2) if y = F (x) is a solution to the initial value problem: dy 1 = dx x

y(1) = 5.

Solution: We take the antiderivative of dy/dx = 1/x to find that y = ln x + C. But we’re given that y(1) = ln 1 + C = 5, which implies that C = 5. So F (x) = y = ln x + 5, thus F (2) = ln 2 + 5 ≈ 5.69.

4. Find H(3) if y = H(x) is a solution to the initial value problem: dy = x3 − 7x2 + 19 dx

y(−1) = 5.

Solution: We take the antiderivative of dy/dx = x3 − 7x2 + 19 to find that y = 41 x4 − 73 x3 + 19x + C. But we’re given that y(−1) = 5 = 41 (−1)4 − 37 (−1)3 − 19 + C, so C = −257/12. 1 7 257 4 3 Thus H(x) = y = 14 x4 − 37 x3 + 19x − 257 12 , and so H(3) = 4 (3) − 3 (3) + 19(3) − 12 = 58.5. 5. Find L(−2) if y = L(x) is a solution to the initial value problem: dy = e3x dx

y(1) = 6.

Solution: We take the antiderivative of dy/dx = e3x to find that y = 13 e3x + C. But we’re given that y(1) = 6 = 13 e(3)(1) + C, so C ≈ −0.695. Thus L(x) = y = 13 e3x − 0.695, and so L(−2) = 31 e(3)(−2) − 0.695 ≈ −0.694. PP 286-289 1. Solutions:

d (5f (t)−2g(t)) = 5f 0 (t)−2g 0 (t); evaluate at t=2: 5f 0 (2)−2g 0 (2) = 5·2−2·(−1) = 12. dt d (f (t)g(t)) = f 0 (t)g(t) + f (t)g 0 (t); evaluate at t = 2: f 0 (2)g(2) + f (2)g 0 (2) = 5. dt   g(t)f 0 (t) − f (t)g 0 (t) d f (t) g(2)f 0 (2) − f (2)g 0 (2) 11 = ; evaluate at t = 2: = . 2 2 dt g(t) g (t) g (2) 16 d g(f (t)) = g 0 (f (t)) · f 0 (t); evaluate at t = 2: g 0 (f (2)) · f 0 (2) = 34. dt   1 −1 −1 1 d = 2 ; evaluate at t = 2: 2 =− . dt f (t) f (t) f (2) 9 d f (3t − (g(1 + t))2 ) = f 0 (3t − (g(1 + t))2 ) · [3 − 2g(1 + t)] · g 0 (1 + t); evaluate at t = 2: dt f 0 ((3)(2) − (g(1 + 2))2 ) · [3 − 2g(1 + 2)] · g 0 (1 + 2) = f 0 (6 − (g(3))2 ) · (3 − 2g(3)) · g 0 (6 − 2g(3)) = f 0 (2) · (−1) · g 0 (2) = (2)(−1)(−1) = 2.

(k) What additional piece of information would you need to calculate the derivative of f (g(t)) at t = 1? d Solution: Since f (g(t)) = f 0 (g(t)) · g 0 (t). When we evaluate at t = 2 we get: dt f 0 (g(2)) · g 0 (2) = −f 0 (4), so we’d need to additionally know f 0 (4). 5. Which of the following functions has a derivative which is always positive (except at x = 0, where neither the function nor its derivative is defined)? 1/x Solution:

1/x2

− 1/x

d (1/x) = −1/x2 , which is not positive for all x 6= 0. dx

d (−1/x) = 1/x2 , which is positive for all x 6= 0. dx d (1/x2 ) = −2/x3 , which is not positive for all x 6= 0. dx d (−1/x2 ) = 2/x3 , which is not positive for all x 6= 0. dx Hence only

d (−1/x) = 1/x2 is positive for all x 6= 0. dx 4

9. The population of a particular country is 15,000,000 people and is growing at the rate of 10,000 people per year. In the same country the per capita yearly expenditure for energy is $1,000 per person and is growing at the rate of $8 per year. What is the country’s current total yearly energy expenditure? How fast is the country’s total yearly energy expenditure growing? Solution: Let P (t) represent the population over time, C(t) represent the per capita yearly expenditure for energy, and E(t) represent the total yearly energy expenditure. Then,

E(t) = P (t) · C(t) 0

0

(1) 0

E (t) = P (t) · C(t) + P (t) · C (t)

(2)

Using equation 1, we see that the current energy expenditure is E = (15, 000, 000)(1, 000) = $15, 000, 000, 000. Then using equation 1, we see that the energy expenditure is growing at a rate of E 0 = (10, 000)(1, 000) + (15, 000, 000)(8) = $130, 000, 000 per year. 10. The population of a particular country is 30 million and is rising at the rate of 4,000 people per year. The total yearly personal income in the country is 20 billion dollars, and it is rising at the rate of 500 million dollars per year. What is the current per capita personal income? Is it rising or falling? By how much? Solution: Let P (t) represent the population over time, I(t) represent the total yearly personal income, and C(t) represent the per capita personal income. Then, I(t) P (t) P (t) · I 0 (t) − P 0 (t) · I(t) C 0 (t) = P (t)2 C(t) =

(3) (4)

20 billion = 30 million $666.67. Using equation 4, we see that the current per capita personal income is growing (30 million)(500 million) − (4, 000)(20billion) at a rate of C 0 = = $16.76 per year. (30 million)2 Using equation 3 we see that the current per capita personal income is C =
