200 years has passed and now it is year 2220. The Earth is out of basic resources as theyhave been drastically drained in the past 200 years. The president of the United WorldCouncil (UWC) has approved you and your crew's Mission to Mars. You will pilot themost advanced spaceship the world has ever known, the Excelsior! It will carryequipment that will help to transform Mars so as to resemble the Earth, especially so thatit can support human life.Before the mission can launch a few items need to be figured out. What is the capacity ofthe fuel tank? How long should the fuel burn to achieve escape velocity (otherwise theExcelsior will be stuck in the Earth's gravitational pull)? How long will it take the Excelsiorto arrive at Mars?1. The ground crew is filling the fuel tanks. You know they fill the tanks at a rate ofr=100et,where r is measured in tons per hour and t is measured in hours. They fillthe tanks for two and a half hours. Calculate how many tons of fuel are in the tanksonce they are full, rounded to the nearest ton. (Hint: Use Integration)

If during the following year it is predicted that each comedy skit will generate 30 thousand and each musical number 20 thousand, find the maximum income for the year. A television program director must schedule comedy skits and musical numbers for prime-time variety shows. Each comedy skit requires 2 hours of rehearsal time, costs 3000, and brings in 20,000 from the shows sponsors. Each musical number requires 1 hour of rehearsal time, costs 6000, and generates 12,000. If 250 hours are available for rehearsal and 600,000 is budgeted for comedy and music, how many segments of each type should be produced to maximize income? Find the maximum income.
