I need some help with steps :
Find all critical numbers for f(x) = 2 times sqrt (9-x^2)
Thanks
Find all critical numbers for f(x) = 2 times sqrt (9-x^2)
Thanks
-
f = 2*(9 - x^2)^.5
f = 2*u^.5
u = 9-x^2
du = -2x dx
df = u^(-.5) du
df = (9-x^2)^(-.5) * -2x dx
df/dx = (9-x^2)^(-.5) * -2x
find all x such that df/dx = 0
x = sqrt(9), -sqrt(9), 0
f = 2*u^.5
u = 9-x^2
du = -2x dx
df = u^(-.5) du
df = (9-x^2)^(-.5) * -2x dx
df/dx = (9-x^2)^(-.5) * -2x
find all x such that df/dx = 0
x = sqrt(9), -sqrt(9), 0
