Solution

You've uploaded an assignment image containing calculus-related problems. I’ll help break down the questions and work through the solutions. Here is a brief overview of the types of problems listed in the assignment:

Section A: Short Answer Type Questions

  1. nth derivative of axcos(x)a^x \cos(x)
  2. Find yny_n if y=tan1(1x)y = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)
  3. Find yny_n if y=x3sin(x)y = x^3 \sin(x) at x=0x = 0
  4. Find yny_n if y=eaxsin(2x)y = e^{-ax} \sin(2x)
  5. Examine if Rolle’s theorem is applicable for f(x)=sec(x)f(x) = \sec(x) on [0,2π][0, 2\pi]
  6. Expand ln(x)\ln(x) in powers of (x1)(x - 1) up to the third degree term
  7. Examine if Lagrange's mean value theorem is applicable for f(x)=1x21f(x) = \frac{1}{x^2 - 1} on [1,2][1, 2]

Section B: Long Answer Type Questions

  1. Expand 4x2+7x+54x^2 + 7x + 5 in powers of (x3)(x - 3)
  2. If y=ln(x+1+x2)y = \ln\left(x + \sqrt{1 + x^2}\right), prove a given recursive relation for yny_n
  3. If y=xnln(x)y = x^n \ln(x), show a relation for yny_n
  4. Verify Rolle’s theorem for specific functions:
    • x26x+8x^2 - 6x + 8 on [2,4][2, 4]
    • exsin(x)e^x \sin(x) on [0,π][0, \pi]

Would you like me to start with any specific question? I can work through solutions one at a time or provide assistance with a particular concept.

Let me know how you'd like to proceed! Here are 5 questions based on this material:

  1. What is the general method to find the nth derivative of a product like axcos(x)a^x \cos(x)?
  2. How does Rolle’s theorem apply to periodic functions like sec(x)\sec(x)?
  3. How can Taylor series expansion be used to approximate ln(x)\ln(x)?
  4. What is the significance of the recursive relation for yny_n in logarithmic functions?
  5. How is Lagrange’s Mean Value Theorem verified for rational functions?

Tip:

For the nth derivative problems, applying Leibniz's rule for differentiating products might simplify your work when dealing with functions like axcos(x)a^x \cos(x).
