- Repeat the previous exercise to find the formula forthe APY of an account that compounds daily. Usethe results from this and the previous exercise todevelop a function I(n)for the APY of any accountthat compounds n times per year.arrow_forwardThe number of bacteria in a refrigerated food product is given by N(T)=23T256T+1,3T33 ,where T is the temperature of the food. When the food is removed from the refrigerator, the temperature is given by T(t)=5t+1.5 , where t is the time in hours. a. Find the composite function N(T(t)) . b. Find the time (round to two decimal places) when the bacteria count reaches 6,752.arrow_forwardWhen a certain drug is taken orally, the concentration of the drug in the patient's bloodstream After t minutes is given by C(t)=0.06t0.0002t2 where 0t240 and concentration is measured in mg/L .When is the maximum serum concentration reached, and what is that maximum concentration?arrow_forward
- Use your schools library, the Internet, or some other reference source to find real-life applications of approximations of functions.arrow_forwardWhat is the composition of two functions, fg ?arrow_forwardThe population Pinmillions of Texas from 2001 through 2014 can be approximated by the model P=20.913e0.0184t, where t represents the year, with t=1 corresponding to 2001. According to this model, when will the population reach 32 million?arrow_forward
- Near the surface of the moon, the distance that an object falls is a function of time. It is given by d(t)=2.6667t2 , where t is in seconds and d(t) is in feet. If an object is dropped from a certain height, find the average velocity of die object from t=1tot=2 .arrow_forwardA forest fire leaves behind an area of grass burned in an expanding circular pattern. If the radius of the circle of burning grass is increasing with time according to the formula r(t)=2t+1 , express the area burned as a function of time, t (minutes).arrow_forwardDoctors treated a patient at an emergency room from 2:00P.M. to 7:00P.M. The patient’s blood oxygen level L (in percent) during this time period can be modeled by L=0.270t2+3.59t+83.1,2t7 where t represents the time of day, with t=2 corresponding to 2:00P.M. Use the model to estimate the time (rounded to the nearest hour) when the patient’s blood oxygen level was 93 .arrow_forward
- The radius r, in inches, of a spherical balloon isrelated to the volume, V, by r(V)=3V43 . Air is pumped into the balloon, so the volume after t seconds is given by V(t)=10+20t . a. Find the composite function r(V(t)) . b.Find the exact time when the radius reaches 10 inches.arrow_forwardAssume that an object tossed vertically upward reaches a height of h feet after t seconds, where h=100t16t2. What is that maximum height?arrow_forward
