1. Find the rate of change of y with respect to x at the indicated value of x. y =
x tan(x) |
3 sec(x) |
; x = 0
y' = _____
2. The total world population is forecast to be
P(t) = 0.00066t3 − 0.0713t2 + 0.84t + 6.04 (0 ≤ t ≤ 10) in year t, where t is measured in decades, with t = 0 corresponding to 2000 and P(t) is measured in billions.
(a) World population is forecast to peak in what year? Hint: Use the quadratic formula. (Remember that t is in decades and not in years. Round your answer down to the nearest year.)
____________
(b) At what number will the population peak? (Be sure to use the value of t found in part (a). Round your answer to two decimal places.)
____________ billion
