Problems 2, 3, 5-7, and parts of 10-12 require the Symbolic Math Tool-
box. The others do not.
1. Use contour to do the following:
(a) Plot the level curves of the function f ( x , y ) = 3 y + y 3
x 3 in the
region where x and y are between 1 and 1 (to get an idea of what
the curves look like near the origin), and in some larger regions (to
get the big picture).
(b) Plot the curve 3 y + y 3
x 3
= 5.
(c) Plot the level curve of the function f ( x , y ) = y ln x + x ln y that con-
tains the point (1 , 1).
2. Find the derivatives of the following functions. If possible, simplify each
answer.
(a) f ( x ) = 6 x 3
5 x 2
+ 2 x 3.
2 x 1
x 2
(b) f ( x ) =
+ 1 .
(c) f ( x ) = sin(3 x 2
+ 2).
(d) f ( x ) = ar csin(2 x + 3).
(e) f ( x ) = 1 + x 4 .
(f) f ( x ) = x r .
(g) f ( x ) = arctan( x 2
+ 1).
3. See if MATLAB can do the following integrals symbolically. For the indef-
inite integrals, check the results by differentiating.
(a) π/ 2
0
cos xdx .
(b) x sin( x 2 ) dx .
(c) sin(3 x ) 1 cos(3 x ) dx .
