Exercise 2. Find the points on the curve
y = (x − 1)2 (x + 2)
where the tangent line is horizontal.
Solution: We need to find the points (x, y ) where y 0 (x) = 0. To compute
y 0 we could use product rule or multiply (x − 1)2 (x + 2) to get
y = x 3 − 3x + 2, anyway we get: y 0 = 3x 2 − 3. Solving 3x 2 − 3 = 0 we get
x = 1 and x = −1. Using these values in y = x 3 − 3x + 2 we get y = 0
and y = 4 respectively. Finally the desired points are: (1, 0) and (−1, 4)

Exercise 3. For f (x) = 3x +5x−2
. Find the equations of the tangent and
x

normal line to f (x) when x = 1.

Solution: We know that the slope of the tangent line to f (x) = 3x +5x−2
x
at x = 1 is given by f 0 (1). To compute f 0 we can use quotient rule or do
the following:
3x 2 + 5x − 2
3x 2 5x

And then take the derivative, anyway we get f (x) = 3 + 2x −2 and
f 0 (1) = 5, and thus mtangent = 5, mnormal = −1
5 . Finally since both tangent
and normal line to f (x) at x = 1 pass through (1, f (1)) = (1, 6), we get:
y − 6 = 5(x − 1)

normal line to f (x) at x = 1: y − 6 =

passes through the point (1, −4)
