3. Find the coordinates of the point in the first quadrant on the ellipse 9x2 + 16y2 = 144 so that the rectangle in the figure below has:
(a) the largest possible area.
(b) the smallest possible area.
4. Verify that the hypotheses of the Mean Value Theorem are satisfied for the functions on the given intervals, and find the number( s) "c" that the Mean Value Theorem guarantees:
(a) f (x) = sin(x) on [0, π/2 ]
(b) f (x) = x3 on [-1, 3]
5. Determine a formula for g(x) if you know:
