TopicChain Rule
TypeEquation of tangent line
DifficultyStandard +0.3 This is a straightforward multi-part chain rule question requiring: (i) differentiation and tangent equation (standard), (ii) integration with substitution (routine), and (iii) related rates using dy/dx = 1/2 (direct application). All parts follow standard procedures with no novel insight required, making it slightly easier than average.

\includegraphics{figure_10} The diagram shows part of the curve with equation \(y = (3x + 4)^{\frac{1}{3}}\) and the tangent to the curve at the point \(A\). The \(x\)-coordinate of \(A\) is 4.
  1. Find the equation of the tangent to the curve at \(A\). [5]
  2. Find, showing all necessary working, the area of the shaded region. [5]
  3. A point is moving along the curve. At the point \(P\) the \(y\)-coordinate is increasing at half the rate at which the \(x\)-coordinate is increasing. Find the \(x\)-coordinate of \(P\). [3]
