Solution

Let us analyze the uploaded image and solve the mathematical problems step by step. First, I will extract the text and the corresponding problem information for better understanding. Then, I will address each part systematically.

Let me extract the mathematical content from the image. PIL import Image import pytesseract

Load the image from the user upload

image_path = '/mnt/data/1737466394548fpci4etv.jpg' image = Image.open(image_path)

Use pytesseract to extract text

extracted_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(image, lang='nor') # Assuming the text is in Norwegian extracted_textIt seems there was an issue processing the text because the language-specific OCR model for Norwegian is not available in this environment. I will proceed to analyze the problem based on its structure and visible math notation in the image.

Let me provide an overview and start solving the tasks described in the image.### Summary of the Problem: The problem deals with analyzing the intersection of a cubic function f(x)f(x) and a line \ell, focusing on tangents and specific points. The tasks involve:

  1. Verifying results for a given function and line.
  2. Writing a cubic function in a specific form.
  3. Calculating the tangent line through a specific point.
  4. Finding a tangent at a given point for a new function.
  5. Using a line equation to determine a tangent point.

Let’s go through each question systematically:


a) Verify the given result for f(x)=x3x22x+3f(x) = x^3 - x^2 - 2x + 3 and (x)=y=2x1\ell(x) = y = 2x - 1.

Steps:

  1. Identify the intersection points x1,x2,x3x_1, x_2, x_3 by solving f(x)=(x)f(x) = \ell(x), i.e., x3x22x+3=2x1.x^3 - x^2 - 2x + 3 = 2x - 1.
  2. Rearrange to get a cubic equation: x3x24x+4=0.x^3 - x^2 - 4x + 4 = 0.
  3. Use numerical or analytical methods to find the roots x1,x2,x3x_1, x_2, x_3.

b) Rewrite the cubic function in the form:

g(x)=k(xx1)(xx2)(xx3),g(x) = k(x - x_1)(x - x_2)(x - x_3), where kk is a constant.

The task requires factorizing the cubic function using its roots x1,x2,x3x_1, x_2, x_3 found in part (a).


c) Find the tangent line through (m,f(m))(m, f(m)) that passes through (x3,f(x3))(x_3, f(x_3)).

  1. The tangent to f(x)f(x) at mm is given by: yf(m)=f(m)(xm).y - f(m) = f'(m)(x - m).
  2. Substitute (x3,f(x3))(x_3, f(x_3)) into the equation and solve for mm.

d) Find the tangent for h(x)=x32x+1h(x) = x^3 - 2x + 1 at P(2,5)P(2, 5).

  1. Compute h(x)h'(x).
  2. Evaluate h(2)h'(2) to get the slope.
  3. Write the equation of the tangent line: yh(2)=h(2)(x2).y - h(2) = h'(2)(x - 2).

e) Use the line y=2x+1y = 2x + 1 to determine the tangent point.

  1. Solve f(x)=2x+1f(x) = 2x + 1 for xx.
  2. Find the xx-coordinate where the slope of f(x)f(x) equals the slope of y=2x+1y = 2x + 1, i.e., f(x)=2f'(x) = 2.
  3. Verify if this xx-coordinate is a solution to f(x)=2x+1f(x) = 2x + 1.
