DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS
SITUATION 5: A curve having an equation of y=ax3 + bx2 + cx + d has a critical point at the
origin and a point of inflection at (2,4).
43. Find the value of c.
a. 0
b. 3/2
c. -1/4
d. ¼
SOLUTION
y=ax3+bx2+cx+dy=ax3+bx2+cx+d
then we know that this curve must pass through the point (0,0)(0,0) which is also a
critical point:
0=a(0)3+b(0)2+c(0)+d0=a(0)3+b(0)2+c(0)+d
d=0d=0
y=ax3+bx2+cxy=ax3+bx2+cx
y′=3ax2+2bx+cy′=3ax2+2bx+c
The first derivative is zero at a critical point:
0=3a(0)2+2b(0)+c0=3a(0)2+2b(0)+c
c=0
44. The motion of a particle is described by the equation D = 20t + 5/(t+1). Where D is in
meters and t in seconds. At what speed is it moving after 4 seconds?
a. 18.90 m/s
b. 17.60 m/s
c. 19.80 m/s
d. 16.70 m/s
45. The motion of a body moving vertically upward at expressed as h = 100t-16.1t2, where h is
the height in feet and t is the time in seconds. What is the velocity of the body after 2seconds?
a. 35.60 ft/s
b. 32.80 ft/s
c. 36.50 ft/s
d. 28.20 ft/s

43. A company uses a type of truck which costs P2,000,000, with life of 3 years and final
salvage value of P320,000. How much could the company afford to pay for another type of
truck for the same purpose, whose life is 4 years with a final salvage value of P400,000, if
money is worth 4%?
a. P2,805,120
b. P2,585,870
c. P2,718,480
d. P2,642,320
solution:
AC1 = 21,176.47
AC1 = AC2
AC1 = (C02)(0.04) + (C02 – 400,000)(0.04)/(1+0.04)4 – 1
C2 = 149,176.47/
44. To maintain a bridge, P5,000 will be required at the end of 3years and annually thereafter.
If money is worth 8%, determine the capitalized cost of all future maintenance.
a. P42,558.74
b. P47,639.00
c. P53,583.68
d. P49,614.52
SOLUTION:
Pw = 5000/(0.08(1+0.08)^2) = P53,583.68
Situation 6:
A research foundation wishes to set up a trust fund earning 10% compounded annually
to
provide P2,000,000.00 for the lot and building and P1,000,000.00.00 for the initial
equipment of a Structural Engineering and Materials Laboratory;
pay P400,000 for annual operating costs; and
pay P500,000 for the purchase of new equipment and replacement of some
equipment every 5 years beginning 5 years from now.
45. How much money should be paid into the fund for the building and equipment and to pay
for perpetual operation and equipment replacement?
