Math Problem Statement

Analyse the function f(x) = x - 2√x + 2, determine its domain, behavior, variation, and construct its curve. Additionally, analyze the sequence u_{n+1} = 1/3 u_n + n - 2 starting with u_0 = 1.

Solution

This is a mathematical exercise set from a 2Bac (2nd-year Baccalaureate) level focused on analysis and sequences. Here’s a breakdown of the first exercise:


Exercice 1 Analysis

  1. Given Function:
    f(x)=x2x+2f(x) = x - 2\sqrt{x} + 2
    The curve (Cf)(\mathcal{C}_f) represents ff in a standard orthonormal plane (O,i,j)(O, \vec{i}, \vec{j}).

Questions Breakdown

  1. Domain and Limit:

    • Find DfD_f, the domain of f(x)f(x).
    • Calculate limx+f(x)\lim_{x \to +\infty} f(x).
  2. Infinite Branches:

    • Study the behavior of the curve (Cf)(\mathcal{C}_f) as x+x \to +\infty.
  3. Relative Position:

    • Compare the curve (Cf)(\mathcal{C}_f) to the line Δ:y=x\Delta : y = x.
  4. Right Derivability:

    • Examine whether ff is differentiable at x=0x = 0 from the right-hand side.
  5. Function Evaluation:

    • Calculate f(x)f(x) for x[0,+]x \in [0, +\infty].
  6. Variation Table:

    • Determine the monotonicity of ff and create its variation table.
  7. Curve Construction:

    • Sketch the line Δ\Delta and curve (Cf)(\mathcal{C}_f).

Sequence Analysis

  • Given the sequence (un)(u_n) defined as: u_{n+1} = \frac{1}{3}u_n + n - 2 \\ u_0 = 1 \end{cases} \quad (n \in \mathbb{N})$$
  1. Monotonicity:

    • Prove that unu_n is increasing for all nNn \in \mathbb{N}.
  2. Boundedness:

    • Show that unu_n is bounded above.
  3. Convergence:

    • Deduce whether the sequence (un)(u_n) converges.
