Question text

11 (a) The point (-1, 6) lies on a curve. dy This curve has the derived function =-4x3-9x2+5. dx Show that (-1, 6) is a stationary point of the curve. [2] (b) A different curve has equation y = 2x3-6x+8. (i) Calculate the gradient of the tangent to this curve at the point (-2,2). ................................................. [3] (ii) Find the x-coordinates of the stationary points of this curve. x = ....................... and x = .......................
