7. Determine the maximum and minimum point(s) for y = 2 sin(2x) + 3 cos(x) + x on the
interval 0 < x < 2π. [4 marks]
8. A child is flying a kite attached to a 20 m long string. At first, the kite is directly above the child, but it
blows east. The child notices that the angle between the string and the ground is decreasing by 5°
each second. How quickly is the kite moving horizontally when the angle between the string and the
ground is 76°? [6 marks]

9. The position of a particle as it moves horizontally is described by the model s = sin t− cos t on the
interval 0 < t < 2π. If s is the displacement in metres and t is the time in seconds, find the
maximum and minimum displacements and when they occur. [4 marks]

10. An artist has 9 m of wire. They will cut it into two pieces. One will be bent into a square while the
other will be bent into a circle. Where on the wire should they cut to get the smallest total area?
[6 marks]

11. A train service carries 20,000 people daily between Rationalia and Real City. The rail line could serve
up to 31,000 people. The cost to ride the train is $π, but research shows that for each fare increase
of $0.02, ridership will go down by 271 people.
a. Create a function to represent the revenue of the train service after x increases of $0.02.
[2 marks]

b. Given the constraints of the problem, what is the domain of your function? [2 marks]

d. If each rider costs the rail service $0.10, what fare should be charged to maximize profit?

12. An open-topped storage box with a square base has a capacity of 5 m3. The material for the sides
costs $1.60/m2 while the material for the bottom costs $2.00/m2. Find the dimensions that will
minimize the cost of making the box. [5 marks]

13. An apple orchard has 2000 trees per hectare and the average yield is 300 apples per tree. For each
additional tree planted per hectare the average yield per tree is reduced by about 0.1 apple. How
many trees per hectare will give the largest crop of apples? [4 marks]

14. An isolated farm house is located on the bank of a straight canal that is 200 m wide. Electric power
for the house must come from a connection that is on the opposite side of the canal, 500 m
downstream. If the cost to lay cable underwater is three times the cost of laying on land, what path
should be chosen to minimize cost? [5 marks]
