(b) O| loz,5 In the diagram, the shaded region is bounded by the y-axis, the curve y=e* and a horizontal line ¢ that cuts the curve at a point whose x coordinate is log, 5. A solid is formed by rotating the shaded region about the y-axis. Write down a definite integral whose value is the volume of the solid. (Do NOT evaluate the integral.) @ @ Find f 2 dx. 45 (a) Solve log, (3x—4)=5. (a) Differentiate with respect to x: @ (2e*-4)’ (a) Find the equation of the normal to the curve y=2log, x at the point (e, 2). (a) Evaluate e3> correct to 3 significant figures. © (b) (a) @ (a) Consider the function f(x) = @ Gi) Gi) Gi) log, x x , forx>0. Show that the graph of y=f(x) has a stationary point at x=e. By considering the gradient on either side of x=e, or otherwise, show that the stationary point is a maximum. Use the fact that the maximum value of f(x) occurs at x=e to deduce that e*> x for all x > 0. 2 Evaluate feva : 1 Find { 2a. x3 Differentiate with respect to x: @ log,x Find the equation of the tangent to y=log,x at the point (e, 1).
