- Finding Inequalities Each of Exercises S-1 through S-4 poses a question that can be answered by solving an inequality. State the appropriate inequality. Note that you are not asked to solve the inequality. Two Investments The value of investment number 1 is given by B1=2501.07t. The value of investment number 2 is given by B2=250+50t. Both B1 and B2 are measured in dollars, and t is time, in years. The time period when investment number 2 has a balance at least as large as investment number 1 is given by an inequality. Find that inequality.arrow_forwardFalling-Body Problems Suppose an object t dropped from a height h0 above the ground.

On the other hand, they can rent the photocopier for 95 a month including maintenance. If they purchase a photocopier, each copy would cost 3; if they rent, the copy is 6 per copy. The office estimates that they make 8000 copies a month. a Find a formula for the cost C of purchasing and using the copier for n months. b Find a formula for the cost C of renting and using the copier for n months. c Make a table of the cost of each method for 1 year to 6 years of use, in 1-year increments. d After how many moths of use would the cost be the same for each method?arrow_forwardDrug Concentration When a drug is administered orally, it takes some time before the blood concentration reaches its maximum level. After that time, concentration levels decrease. When 500 milligrams of procainamide is administered orally, one model for a particular patient gives blood concentration C, in milligrams per liter, after t hours as C=2.65(e0.2te2t) What is the maximum blood-level concentration, and when does that level occur?arrow_forward

- The Single-Graph Method In Exercises S-17 through S-28, use the single-graph method to solve the given equation. x4+x5=x6. There are three solutions. Find all three.arrow_forwardSetting Up Equations Each of Exercise S-1 through S-4 poses a question that can be answered by solving an equation. Given the appropriate equation. Note that you are not asked to solve the equation. Argon-39 is a radioactive isotope of argon. Initially a sample of argon-39 contains 10 grams, and the amount remaining after t years is given by A=10x0.5t269grams. The half-life is the time required for the amount of argon-39 to be reduced by half. The half-life of argon-39 is the solution of an equation. Find that equation.arrow_forwardAlexanders Formula One interesting problem in the study of dinosaurs is to determine from their tracks how fast they ran. The scientist R. McNeil Alexander developed a formula giving the velocity of any running animal in terms of its stride length and the height of its hip above the ground. The stride length of dinosaur can be measured from successive prints of the same foot, and the hip height roughly the leg length can be estimated on the basis of the size of a footprint, so Alexanders formula gives a way of estimating from dinosaur tracks how fast the dinosaur was running. See Figure 2.45. If the velocity v is measured in meters per second, and the stride length s and hip height h are measured in meters, then Alexanders formula is v=0.78s1.67h1.17. For comparison, a length of 1 meter is 39.37inches, and a velocity of 1 meter per second is about 2.2milesperhour. First, we study animals with varying stride lengths, but all with a hip height of 2meters so h=2 i. Find the formula for the velocity v as a function of the stride length s. ii. Make a graph of v versus s. Include stride lengths from 2to10meters. iii. What happens to the velocity as the stride length increases? Explain your answer in practical terms. iv. Some dinosaur tracks show a stride length of 3meters, and a scientist estimates that the hip height of the dinosaur was 2meters. How fast was the dinosaur running?arrow_forward
