Solution

Let's go through the problems one by one and solve them in detail.

Problem 1: Finding h(1)h'(1)

Given: h(x)=f(2x)(g(x))2h(x) = f(2x) (g(x))^2 where:

  • f(x)f(x) is a function such that f(1)=3f(1) = 3.
  • The graph of f(x)f'(x) is provided.
  • g(x)g(x) and g(x)g'(x) values are:
    • g(0)=10,g(1)=35,g(2)=30g(0) = 10, \, g(1) = 35, \, g(2) = 30
    • g(0)=5,g(1)=2,g(2)=2g'(0) = 5, \, g'(1) = -2, \, g'(2) = 2

To find h(1)h'(1), we will use the product rule and the chain rule:

h(x)=f(2x)(g(x))2h(x) = f(2x) (g(x))^2

Taking the derivative using the product rule:

h(x)=f(2x)2(g(x))2+f(2x)2g(x)g(x)h'(x) = f'(2x) \cdot 2(g(x))^2 + f(2x) \cdot 2g(x)g'(x)

To find h(1)h'(1):

  1. h(1)=f(21)2(g(1))2+f(2)2g(1)g(1)h'(1) = f'(2 \cdot 1) \cdot 2(g(1))^2 + f(2) \cdot 2g(1)g'(1)
  2. h(1)=2f(2)(35)2+f(2)235(2)h'(1) = 2f'(2)(35)^2 + f(2) \cdot 2 \cdot 35 \cdot (-2)

We need f(2)f'(2) and f(2)f(2). We look at the graph for f(x)f'(x) to find f(2)f'(2), and since f(1)=3f(1) = 3, f(2)f(2) can be obtained from additional context or graphical data provided.

Let's substitute the known values and compute:

  1. Calculate h(1)h'(1) using the specific values for f(2)f'(2) and f(2)f(2) after inspecting the graph and provided function values.

Problem 2: Continuous Random Variable XX

Given a continuous random variable XX with a probability density function (pdf) defined graphically, we are to:

(a) Calculate Pr(4<X<6)Pr(4 < X < 6):

The probability can be calculated by integrating the pdf over the interval [4,6][4, 6]:

Pr(4<X<6)=46f(x)dxPr(4 < X < 6) = \int_{4}^{6} f(x) \, dx

(b) Calculate E[X]E[X]:

The expected value E[X]E[X] is:

E[X]=xf(x)dxE[X] = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} x f(x) \, dx

Since the pdf is zero outside the interval defined by the graph, we only need to integrate over the non-zero regions.

(c) Calculate Var(X)\text{Var}(X):

The variance Var(X)\text{Var}(X) is:

[ \text{Var}(X) = E[X^2] - (E[X])^2 ]

where:

E[X2]=x2f(x)dxE[X^2] = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} x^2 f(x) \, dx

Problem 3: Maclaurin Series for k(x)k(x)

Given: k(x)=xlog(1+2x)ex2k(x) = x \log(1 + 2x)e^{-x^2}

(a) Find the degree 5 Maclaurin polynomial for k(x)k(x):

Use the Maclaurin series for exe^x and log(1+x)\log(1 + x) to expand:

ex2=n=0(x2)nn!,log(1+2x)=n=1(1)n+1(2x)nne^{-x^2} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{(-x^2)^n}{n!}, \quad \log(1 + 2x) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{n+1} (2x)^n}{n}

Multiply these and truncate terms beyond degree 5.

(b) Deducing k(5)(0)k^{(5)}(0):

Observe the coefficients of x5x^5 in the Maclaurin expansion to find k(5)(0)k^{(5)}(0).

(c) Finding limx0k(x)2x2x3\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{k(x) - 2x^2}{x^3}:

Use the series expansion to compute the limit.
