Background: A dog named Zip is often tied to a zipline. Fig 1A: Top view of yard. When tied, Zip travels in such a way that the hook on the line slides back and forth as he moves. A coordinate system is defined as described in the picture to the right. Figure 1A shows a top view and Figure 1B shows a Fig 1B: Sideview of zipline. sideview. A measurement system is connected to the hook. It periodically records the position on the line during the time Zip is connected to it. After 50,000 x=0 location of hook observations (electronically recorded) a continuous model for where the hook is located was developed by - 10m < x < 10m a team of engineers. They came up with the model that p(x) = { + 100) otherwise 1) Sketch a graph for p(x). Do you need to fill in this form? You can use Fill & Sign to complete form yourself or get others to sign. 2) What is the average position of the hook on the zipline?

Laying Phone Cable City A lies on the north bank of a river that is 1 mile wide. You need to run a phone cable from City A to City B, which lies on the opposite bank 5 miles down the river. You will lay L miles of the cable along the north shore of the river, and from the end of that stretch of cable you will lay W miles of cable running under water directly toward City B. See Figure 2.108. Figure 2.108 You will need the following fact about right triangles: A right triangle has two legs, which meet at the right angle, and the hypotenuse, which is the longest side. An ancient and beautiful formula, the Pythagorean theorem, relates the lengths of the three sides: Lengthofhypotenuse=Lengthofoneleg2+Lengthofotherleg2 a.
