The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the points where the derivative \( f'(x) \) of the function \( f(x) = x \sin(\pi x) \) vanishes for all natural numbers \( n \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the function**: \[ f(x) = x \sin(\pi x) \] 2. **Differentiate the function**: We will use the product rule for differentiation. The product rule states that if you have two functions \( u(x) \) and \( v(x) \), then the derivative \( (uv)' = u'v + uv' \). Let: - \( u = x \) and \( v = \sin(\pi x) \) Then: - \( u' = 1 \) - \( v' = \pi \cos(\pi x) \) Now applying the product rule: \[ f'(x) = u'v + uv' = 1 \cdot \sin(\pi x) + x \cdot \pi \cos(\pi x) \] Thus, \[ f'(x) = \sin(\pi x) + \pi x \cos(\pi x) \] 3. **Set the derivative to zero**: We want to find where \( f'(x) = 0 \): \[ \sin(\pi x) + \pi x \cos(\pi x) = 0 \] 4. **Rearranging the equation**: Rearranging gives: \[ \sin(\pi x) = -\pi x \cos(\pi x) \] 5. **Divide both sides by \( \cos(\pi x) \)** (where \( \cos(\pi x) \neq 0 \)): This gives: \[ \tan(\pi x) = -\pi x \] 6. **Analyze the equation**: The equation \( \tan(\pi x) = -\pi x \) suggests that we need to find the intersections of the functions \( y = \tan(\pi x) \) and \( y = -\pi x \). 7. **Finding the points of intersection**: - The function \( \tan(\pi x) \) has vertical asymptotes at \( x = \frac{1}{2} + n \) for \( n \in \mathbb{Z} \). - The line \( y = -\pi x \) is a straight line with a negative slope. We can observe that: - For \( n = 0 \), the first intersection occurs at \( x = 0 \). - For \( n = 1 \), the next intersections occur between \( n \) and \( n + 1 \). 8. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the derivative \( f'(x) \) vanishes at points \( x = n + \frac{1}{2} \) for all natural numbers \( n \). ### Final Answer: The points where \( f'(x) \) vanishes for all natural numbers \( n \) are: \[ x = n + \frac{1}{2}, \quad n \in \mathbb{N} \]
