Question 31
The curve C has equation y = f ( x ) given by
3
f ( x ) = 2 ( x − 2) , x ∈ » .
a) Sketch the graph of f ( x ) .
b) Find an expression for f ′ ( x ) .
The point P ( 3, 2 ) lies on C and the straight line l1 is the tangent to C at P .
c) Find an equation of l1 .
The straight line l2 is another tangent at a different point Q on C .
d) Given that l1 is parallel to l2 show that an equation of l2 is
y = 6x − 8 .
f ′ ( x ) = 6 x 2 − 24 x + 24 , y = 6 x − 16

Question 32
The point P ( 2,9 ) lies on the curve C with equation
y = x3 − 3 x 2 + 2 x + 9 , x ∈ » , x ≥ 1 .
a) Find an equation of the tangent to C at P , giving the answer in the form
y = mx + c , where m and c are constants.
The point Q also lies on C so that the tangent to C at Q is perpendicular to the
tangent to C at P .
