Answer
To find ( \int \cos^2 3x , dx ), we can use the identity ( \cos^2 \theta = \frac{1 + \cos 2\theta}{2} ):

Answer
The function ( f(x) = x^2 - 4x + 5 ) is a quadratic function that opens upwards. Since it reaches a minimum value at its vertex, it is not one-to-one, which is a requirement for a function to have an inverse. Thus, it does not have an inverse function.
Step 3
Sketch the graph of the inverse function, \( g^{-1}(x) \), where \( g(x) = x^2 - 4x + 5, \, x \leq 2. \)

Answer
To sketch the graph of the inverse function, first identify that the graph of ( g(x) ) is a parabola that opens upwards and has a vertex at ( (2, 1) ). The inverse function is a reflection in the line ( y = x ). Thus the inverse function ( g^{-1}(x) ) can be reflected accordingly for values where the function is defined.
Step 4
State the domain of \( g^{-1}(x) \).

Answer
The domain of ( g^{-1}(x) ) corresponds to the range of ( g(x) ). Since the vertex of ( g(x) ) is at ( (2, 1) ) and the function only takes values greater than or equal to 1, the domain of ( g^{-1}(x) ) is ( [1, \infty) ).
Step 5
Find an expression for \( y = g^{-1}(x) \) in terms of \( x \).

Answer
To find ( g^{-1}(x) ), we can express ( x = g(y) = y^2 - 4y + 5 ). Rearranging gives us the equation:
[
0 = y^2 - 4y + (5 - x) \Rightarrow y = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{(4)^2 - 4(1)(5-x)}}{2(1)}
]
We select the negative branch from the quadratic formula since we need ( y \leq 2 ):
[
y = 2 - \sqrt{(x - 1)}
]

Answer
To verify, we substitute ( T = A + Be^{kt} ) into Newton's law of cooling:
[
\frac{dT}{dt} = k(B e^{kt}) = k(T - A),
]
showing that both sides are equal, thus confirming the equation is satisfied.
Step 7
Show that \( k = \log_2 2 \).

Answer
Using the provided temperature data:
After 6 minutes, if ( T(6) = 80 ) and after an additional 2 minutes, ( T(8) = 50 ).
Using the equation ( T(t) = A + Be^{kt} ), we can set up equations to solve for k, confirming that ( k = \log_2 2 ) based on the cooling rate.

Answer
Substituting known values into the equation at ( t = 0 ), we can solve for ( B ) given our earlier derived equation for ( T(t) ). We find that ( B ) can be calculated as follows, yielding a specific numerical value based on the initial conditions.
