Consider the function f (x) = (2/3) x^3 + bx^2 + 2x + 3, where b is some undetermined coefficient: (a) find f'(x) and f''(x) and (b) if you know that f(x) has a stationary point at x = 2, use this information to find b.

(a) We have f(x)=(2/3)x3+ bx2 + 2x +3. First we have to solve for f'(x)=(dy/dx)f(x) which gives:f'(x) = [(32)/3]x2 + 2bx + 2 <=> f'(x)=2x2+ 2bx + 2 Fr...
