Fluid Flow The intake pipe of a 100-gallon tank has a flow rate of 10 gallons per minute, and two drainpipes have flow rates of 5 gallons per minute each. The figure shows the volume V of fluid in the tank as a function of time t. Determine whether the input pipe and each drainpipe are open or closed in specific subintervals of the 1 hour of time shown in the graph. (There are many correct answers.)
Bungee Jumping Luisa goes bungee jumping from a 500-ft-high bridge. The graph shows Luisas height ht in ft after t seconds. Describe in words what the graph indicates about Luisas bungee jump. Suppose Luisa goes bungee jumping from a 400-ft-high bridge. Sketch a new graph that shows Luisas height Ht after t seconds. What transformation must be performed on the function h to obtain the function H? Express the function H in terms of h.
Magazine Circulation: The circulation C of a certain magazine as a function of time t is given by the formula C=5.20.1+0.3t Here C is measured in thousands, and t is measured in years since the beginning of 2006, when the magazine was started. a. Make a graph of C versus t covering the first 6 years of the magazines existence. b. Express using functional notation the circulation of the magazine 18 months after it was started, and then find that value. c. Over what time interval is the graph of C concave up? Explain your answer in practical terms. d. At what time was the circulation increasing the fastest?. e. Determine the limiting value for C. Explain your answer in practical terms.
Resale Value: The resale value V, in dollars, of a certain car is a function of the number of year t since the year 2012. In the year 2012, the resale ale is 18,000 and each year thereafter the resale value decreases by 1700. a. What is the resale value in the year 2013? b. Find a formula for V as a function of t. c. Make a graph of V versus t covering the first 4 years since the year 2012. d. Use functional notation to express the resale value in the year 2015, and then calculate that value.
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).
