Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Find the domain and derivative

  • Domain: For the function (y = g(x)=x\sqrt{18 - x^{2}}), the expression under the square - root must be non - negative. So, (18-x^{2}\geq0), which gives ((x + 3\sqrt{2})(x - 3\sqrt{2})\leq0). The domain is ([-3\sqrt{2},3\sqrt{2}]).
  • Derivative: Using the product rule ((uv)^\prime=u^\prime v+uv^\prime), where (u = x) and (v=\sqrt{18 - x^{2}}=(18 - x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}). (u^\prime = 1) and (v^\prime=\frac{1}{2}(18 - x^{2})^{-\frac{1}{2}}\times(-2x)=\frac{-x}{\sqrt{18 - x^{2}}}). Then (g^\prime(x)=\sqrt{18 - x^{2}}+x\times\frac{-x}{\sqrt{18 - x^{2}}}=\frac{18 - x^{2}-x^{2}}{\sqrt{18 - x^{2}}}=\frac{18 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{18 - x^{2}}}). Set (g^\prime(x)=0), then (18 - 2x^{2}=0). (2x^{2}=18), (x^{2}=9), (x=\pm3).

Step2: Determine the sign of the derivative

  • Test intervals: We consider the intervals ((-3\sqrt{2},-3)), ((-3,3)) and ((3,3\sqrt{2})). For (x\in(-3\sqrt{2},-3)), let (x=-4) (since (-3\sqrt{2}\approx - 4.24)). Then (g^\prime(-4)=\frac{18-2\times(-4)^{2}}{\sqrt{18-(-4)^{2}}}=\frac{18 - 32}{\sqrt{18 - 16}}=\frac{-14}{\sqrt{2}}<0). For (x\in(-3,3)), let (x = 0). Then (g^\prime(0)=\frac{18-2\times0^{2}}{\sqrt{18-0^{2}}}=\frac{18}{\sqrt{18}}=\sqrt{18}>0). For (x\in(3,3\sqrt{2})), let (x = 4) (since (3\sqrt{2}\approx4.24)). Then (g^\prime(4)=\frac{18-2\times4^{2}}{\sqrt{18 - 4^{2}}}=\frac{18 - 32}{\sqrt{18 - 16}}=\frac{-14}{\sqrt{2}}<0).

Answer:

A. The function (g) is increasing on the open interval ((-3,3))
