6. (14%) Two different methods are applied to estimate ln (1.2) as follows.
(a) The linear approximation of ln x at x = 1 is .
Use this to estimate ln (1.2).
Answer: ln (1.2)≈ by linear approximation.
(b) Apply Mean Value Theorem to show that 1
1 + x < ln (1 + x)
x < 1 for x > 0.
(c) Use the result in (b) to find an interval in which ln (1.2) is located. Then use the midpoint of this interval to estimate ln (1.2).
Answer: ln (1.2)≈ by mean value theorem.
Sol:
(a) (1) L[ln(x)] = ln(1) + d
dxln(x)¯¯¯
x=1· (x − 1) = x − 1 (3pts) (2) L[ln(1.2)] = 0.2 (3pts)
(b) ln(y + 1) is continuous on [0, x], differentiable on (0.x).
By mean value theorm,
there exists a constant c in (0, x) such that ln(1 + x)− ln(1)
x = 1
1 + c < 1.
Also, 1
1 + c > 1
1 + x, so 1
1 + x < ln(1 + x)
x < 1 (5pts) (c) Using (b), 1
1.2 < ln(1.2)
0.2 < 1, 1
6 < ln(1.2) < 1 5. Take midpoint, ln(1.2)≈ 11

7. (12%) Let L be any line through the point (3, 24).
(a) The equation of the line L that cuts off the least area from the first quadrant
is .
The least area is .
(b) The equation of the line L which cuts off shotrest segment by the first quadrant
is .
The length of the shortest segment is .
Sol:
(a) Line equation: y− 24 = −8(x − 3) (3 points) the least area is 144 (3 points)
(b) Line equation: y− 24 = −2(x − 3) (3 points) the shortest segment length is 15√
5 (3 points)
Let y− 24 = m(x − 3) be a line L through (3, 24) with slope m < 0 (No need to consider vertical line m =±∞ and horizontal line m = 0) x-intercept of L: 3− 24
m y-intercept of L: 24− 3m (a) Area A(m) = 1
2(3− 24
m)(24− 3m) = 9
2(16− m − 64 m) = 9
2(16− f(m)) where f (m) = m + 64
m , f0(m) = 1− 64
m2 = 0, m2 = 64, m =±8
Since m < 0 and f0(m) > 0 when m <−8 and f0(m) < 0 when −8 < m < 0, f has an absolute maximum at m = 8, f (−8) = −16
∴ The least area = 9
2(16− (−16)) = 144 L : y− 24 = −8(x − 3) or 8x + y = 48
(b) Squared segment length L(m) = (3− 24
m)2+ (24− 3m)2 = 9[65− 16
m − 16m + 64
m2 + m2] = 9[65− g(m)]
where g(m) = 16m + 16
m − m2− 64 m2, g0(m) = 16− 2m − 16
m2 +128
m3 = 16m3− 2m4− 16m + 128
m3 = −2
m3[(m3+ 8)(m− 8)], m < 0
Since g0(m) > 0 when m <−2 and g0(m) < 0 when −2 < m < 0, m = −2 The length of the shortest segment = √
(3 + 12)2 + (24 + 6)2 = 15√ 5 L : y− 24 = −2(x − 3) or y + 2x = 30

Therefore, f (x) is continuous at 0.
Since f0(x) =|x|x(ln|x| + 1) → −∞ as x → 0, So, f0(0) doesn‘t exist.
