Determine whether the statement is true or false.

If f has an absolute minimum value at c, then f '(c) = 0.
True
False

What steps or reasoning did you use? Your work counts towards your score.
The Fermat's Theorem says that if f has a local maximum or minimum at c, and f'(c), exists, then f'(c)=0.
This states absolute minimum, so the theory doesn't apply.

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of f on the given interval.
f(x) =

x
x2 x + 1

, [0, 3]
$$0

absolute minimum value

$$1
absolute maximum value

Solution or Explanation
f(x) =

x
x2 x + 1

, [0, 3]. f'(x) =

(x2 x + 1) x(2x 1)
(x2 x + 1)2

not in the given interval, [0, 3]. f(0) = 0, f(1) = 1, and f(3) =

x2 x + 1 2x2 + x
(x2 x + 1)2

1 x2
(x2 x + 1)2

=0

x = 1, but x = 1 is

3
. So f(1) = 1 is the absolute maximum value and f(0) = 0 is the
7

absolute minimum value.

After the consumption of an alcoholic beverage, the concentration of alcohol in the bloodstream (blood alcohol concentration, or BAC)
surges as the alcohol is absorbed, followed by a gradual decline as the alcohol is metabolized. The function
C(t) = 1.35te2.802t
models the average BAC, measured in mg/mL, of a group of eight male subjects t hours after rapid consumption of 15 mL of ethanol
(corresponding to one alcoholic drink). What is the maximum average BAC during the first 2 hours? (Round your answer to three
decimal places.)
-.0229

0.177 mg/mL

When does it occur? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

14.55

0.36 h

Solution or Explanation
Let a = 1.35 and b = 2.802. Then C(t) = atebt
C'(t) = a(tebt b + ebt 1).

C'(t) = 0
bt + 1 = 0
t=
0.36 h. C(0) = 0, C(1/b) = a e1 = a 0.177, and C(2) = 2ae2b 0.010. The

be
maximum average BAC during the first three hours is about 0.177 mg/mL and it occurs at approximately 0.36 h (21.4 min).

After an antibiotic tablet is taken, the concentration of the antibiotic in the bloodstream is modeled by the function
C(t) = 3(e0.4t e0.6t)
where the time t is measured in hours and C is measured in g/mL. What is the maximum concentration of the antibiotic during the
first 12 hours? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
.0085

0.4444 g/mL

Solution or Explanation
C(t) = 3(e0.4t e0.6t), [0, 12]. C'(t) = 3(0.4e0.4t + 0.6e0.6t). C'(n) = 0
ln(3/2)

Use a graph to estimate the critical numbers of f(x) = |x3 5x2 + 4| correct to one decimal place.
x = -.8
x=0

-0.8 (smallest value)

0

x=1
x = 3.3

1
3.3

x = 4.8

4.8 (largest value)

Solution or Explanation

We see that f '(x)=0 at about x = 0.0 and x = 3.3, and that f '(x) does not exist at about x = 0.8, 1.0, and 4.8, so the critical
numbers of f are about 0.8, 0, 1, 3.3, and 4.8.

No, f is continuous on [1, 4] but not differentiable on (1, 4).

Yes, it does not matter if f is continuous or differentiable; every function satisfies the Mean Value Theorem.
Yes, f is continuous on [1, 4] and differentiable on (1, 4).
No, f is not continuous on [1, 4].
There is not enough information to verify if this function satisfies the Mean Value Theorem.
