For this week's discussion, you are asked to generate a continuous and differentiable function f (2) with the following properties: • f(x) is decreasing at x = -6 • f(x) has a local minimum at x = -3 • f (x) has a local maximum at x = 3 Hints: • Use calculus! • Before specifying a function f (2), first determine requirements for its derivative f' (2). For example, one of the requirements is that f' (-3) = 0. • If you want to find a function g(x) such that g(-9) = 0 and g(8) = 0, then you could try g(x) = (x + 9) (x – 8). • If you have a possible function for f' (2), then use the techniques in Indefinite Integrals this Module to try a possible f (x). You can generate a plot of your function by clicking the plotting option (the page option with a "P" next to your function input). You may want to do this before clicking "How Did I Do?". Notice that the label "f(2) =" is already provided for you. Once you are ready to check your function, click "How Did I Do?" below (unlimited attempts). Please note that the bounds on the x-axis go from -6 to 6. f(x) = How Did I Do? Try Another

CLEARLY PLEASE Toluene is produced by hydroforming conversion of n-heptane in a Cr203@-A1203 catalyst medium. The operating conditions of the process are given on the flow chart. The solvent used in the process is recovered. CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2 - CH3CH3 + 4H2 Toluene production efficiency is 15% based on n-heptane fed into the process. The solvent ratio used in the extractor is 10 kg solvent / 1 kg toluene. According to this, a. Calculate how much heat must be added or removed to keep the reactor isothermal at 425 °C. b. What is the temperature of the n-heptane or solvent stream leaving the extractor. (The temperatures of the n- heptane and solvent streams can be considered the same.) но | 425 °C Cooler n-Heptane Superheater 425 °C 18°C 18 °C Catalytic Reactor HO Saturated Toluene vapour n-Heptane . 38c Solvent Heat Heat Extractor Still Exchanger Separator 18 °C 120 °C Solvent Solvent+Toluene
