Question 38444: Given f(x) = -x^3 + 3x^2 - x + 4
find
f(-2)

Did I do this correctly?

f(-2) = -(-2)^3 + 3(-2)^2 - -2 + 4
f(-2) = -(-8) + 3(4) +2 + 4
f(-2) = 8 + 12 + 2 + 4
f(-2) = 24

Question 38533: V = C(Ro – R)R^2
where C > 0 is a constant based on individual body characteristics,
Ro is the radius of the windpipe before the cough, and R is the
radius of the windpipe during the cough. Find the value of R that
maximizes the velocity, and state the resulting maximum velocity.
I just want to confirm that I am on the right track?
V = C(Ro – R)R^2
= C Ro R^2 - CR^3
V'(R)= 0
CR(2Ro - 3R) = 0,
R = 0 or 2/3.
I think the elgebra may not be right?
Can someone please tell me if this is the right idea.
Thankyou.
