Problem
In this question you must show all stages of your working.
Solutions relying entirely on calculator technology are not acceptable.
The curve C has equation y=f(x), x>0.
Given that
- the point P(4,−5) lies on C
- f′(x)=4x2x2+ax+b, where a and b are constants
- the gradient of the tangent to C at P is 7
(a) show that
4a+b=24
(2)
Given also that a+b=−9,
(b) find, in simplest form, f(x).

解答
(a)

思路

点 P 的 x 坐标是 4,并且该点处切线斜率是 7,所以 f′(4)=7。把 x=4 代入即可推出目标式。
答题过程
展开
Since the gradient at P is 7,
f′(4)=7.
So
442(4)2+a(4)+b=832+4a+b=32+4a+b=4a+b=775624.
This is the required result.

先联立 4a+b=24 和 a+b=−9,求出 a,b。再把 f′(x) 拆成幂函数形式积分。最后用点 P(4,−5) 求积分常数。

Solve
4a+b=a+b=24,−9.
Subtract the second equation from the first:
3a=a=3311.
Then
11+b=b=−9−20.
Therefore
f′(x)===4x2x2+11x−204x1/22x2+4x1/211x−4x1/22021x3/2+411x1/2−5x−1/2.
Integrate:
f(x)==21⋅5/2x5/2+411⋅3/2x3/2−5⋅1/2x1/2+c51x5/2+611x3/2−10x1/2+c.
Use P(4,−5):
−5=====51(4)5/2+611(4)3/2−10(4)1/2+c51(32)+611(8)−20+c532+344−20+c1596+220−300+c1516+c.
So
c==−5−1516−1591.
Therefore
f(x)=51x5/2+611x3/2−10x1/2−1591.
(c)
解法一
思路
展开
y=f(x−3) 是把 y=f(x) 向右平移 3 个单位,所以点的 x 坐标加 3,y 坐标不变。
答题过程
展开
The transformation from y=f(x) to y=f(x−3) is a translation 3 units to the right.
So
P(4,−5)↦Q(7,−5).
