1. A spherical scoop of ice cream is melting in such a way that its radius is decreasing at a con3
stant rate of 0.1 cm/minute. When the volume of the scoop is 32π
3 cm , at what rate is its
volume decreasing?
Hint: Volume of a sphere = 43 πr3 , where r = radius in cm, note that here radius is a function of
time.
V = 43 πr3
Here, the radius and consequently the volume are changing with time, so
V (t) = 43 π(r(t))3 where r(t) is the radius at time t.
Differentiate with respect to time

2. A lighthouse is on a small island 4 km. away from the nearest point P of a straight shoreline.
The light of this lighthouse makes 2 revolutions per minute, moving a beam of light along the
shoreline as it revolves. How fast is the beam of light moving along the shoreline when it is 2
km.from the point P?
Hint: One revolution of the light is 2π radians (do not use degrees)
Let x(t) be the distance between the point P and the beam of light on the shoreline at time t.
Then, from this picture
we can see that
tan(θ(t)) =
x(t)
4
where θ(t) is the angle between the beam of light and the line connecting P and the lighthouse.
There are two nice ways to do this:
Method 1:
x(t) = 4tan(θ(t))
Differentiating with respect to time we have
dx
=
dt
Since we are given that

when x(t) = 2 we have

and when x =2, using pythagoras and
cos(θ) =

we finally have
dx

Method 2:
θ(t) = arctan( x(t)

So

So either way, we have that the beam of light is moving at a speed of 20 π km per minute when
it is 2 km from the point P.

3. Find the equations of the tangent lines to the curve
x2 − xy + y2 = 4
at the points where the curve crosses the x-axis.
First, this curve crosses the x-axis when y = 0, so when
x2 − x(0) + 02 = 4
x2 = 4
x = ±2
So it crosses at (2, 0) and (−2, 0).
Next, we need the slope of the tangents to these points. So implicitly differentiate:
2x − (1 · y + x · y) + 2y · y0 = 0
2y · y0 − x · y0 = y − 2x
y0 (2y − x) = y − 2x
y − 2x
y0 =
2y − x
At (2, 0):
y = mx + b
m=
0−2(2)
2(0)−2
=
−4
−2
=2
So now,
y = 2x + b
plug in (2, 0)
0 = 2(2) + b
b = −4
Page 5
At (−2, 0):
m=
0−2(−2)
2(0)−(−2)
=
4
2
=2
So now,
y = 2x + b
plug in (−2, 0)
0 = 2(−2) + b
b = 4
So the equations of the tangent lines are y = 2x − 4 and y = 2x + 4

= sin (x)cos(x) + x[2sin(x)cos(x)cos(x) + sin2 (x)(−sin(x))]
y0 = sin2 (x)cos(x) + 2xsin(x)cos2 (x) − xsin3 (x)
y0 = 1 · (sin2 (x)cos(x)) + x ·
(last step not necessary)

(c) y = 5 · ln(7x3 ) + 3 · arcsin(6x − 2)
y0 = 5 · 7x13 · 21x2 + 3 · √

(t 2 +1)3
2 Ways to do This:
Product Rule:
g(t) = (2t − 5)4 (t 2 + 1)−3
g0 (t) = 4(2t − 5)3 (2) · (t 2 + 1)−3 + (2t − 5)4 · (−3)(t 2 + 1)−4 (2t)
Quotient Rule:
g0 (t) =

4(2t−5)3 (2)·(t 2 +1)−3 −(2t−5)4 ·(−3)(t 2 +1)−4 (2t)
