Error Analysis Your friend incorrectly makes this graph as an example of a linear function with initial value 5. What is your friend's error? Find an example of a graph with initial value 5. What is your friend's error? O A. The graph crosses the x-axis at x =5 instead of the y-axis at y = 5. O B. The graph has y-intercept 5, not initial value 5. OC. The graph crosses the y-axis at y = - 5 instead of at y = 5. O D. The graph has rate of change 5, not initial value 5.

Arboriculture The growth of a red oak tree is approximated by the function G=0.003t3+0.137t2+0.458t0.839,2t34 where G is the height of the tree (in feet) and t is its age (in years). (a) Use a graphing utility to graph the function. (b) Estimate the age of the tree when it is growing most rapidly. This point is called the point of diminishing returns because the increase in size will be less with each additional year. (c) Using calculus, the point of diminishing returns can be found by finding the vertex of the parabola y=0.009t2+0.274t+0.458. Find the vertex of this parabola. (d) Compare your results from parts (b) and (c).
Swimming Laps Miyuki practices swimming laps with her team. The function y=f(t) graphed below gives her distance (in meters) from the starting edge of the pool t second after she starts her laps. (a) Describe in words Miyuki’s swim practice. What is her average speed for the first 30 s? (b) Graph the function y=1.2(t) .How is the graph of the new function related to the graph of the original function? (c) What is Miyuki’s new average speed for the first 30s?
A store offers customers a 30% discount on the price x of selected items. Then, the store takes off an additional 15% at the cash register. Write a price function P(x) that computes the final price of the item in terms of the original price x. (Hint: Use function composition to find your answer.)
Field Trip A class of fourth graders walks to a park on a field trip. The function y=f(t) graphed below gives their distance from school in ft t minutes after they left school. What is the average speed going to the park? How long was the class at the park? How far away is the park? Graph the function y=0.5f(t). How is the graph of the new function related to the graph of the original function? What is the average speed going to the new park? How far is the new park? Graph the function y=f(t10). How is the graph of the new function related to the graph of the original function? How does the field trip described by this function differ from the original trip?
Radioactive Decay The half-life of radium-226 is 1590 years. (a)If a sample has a mass of 150 mg, find a function that models the mass that remains after tyears. (b)Find the mass that will remain after 1000 years. (c)After how many years will only 50 mg remain?
Titanic At 2:00 p.m. on April 11, 1912, the Titanic left Cobh, Ireland, on her voyage to New York City. At 11:40 p.m. on April 14, the Titanic struck an iceberg and sank, having covered only about 2100 miles of the approximately 3400-mile trip. (a) What was the total duration of the voyage in hours? (b) What was the average speed in miles per hour? (c) Write a function relating the distance of the Titanic from New York City and the number of hours traveled. Find the domain and range of the function. (d) Graph the function in part (c).
