- 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 t years. b Find the mass that will remain after 1000 years. c After how many years will only 50 mg remain?arrow_forwardAverage Speed: A commuter regularly drives 70 miles from home to work, and the amount of time required for the trip varies widely as a result of road and traffic conditions. The average speed for such a trip is a function of the time required. For example, if the trip takes 2 hours, then the average speed is 70/2 = 35 miles per hour. a. What is the average speed if the trip takes an hour and a half? b. Find a formula for the average speed as a function of the time required for the trip. You need to choose variable and function names. Be sure to state units. c. Make a graph of the average speed as a function of the time required. Includes trips from 1 hour to 3 hours in length. d. Is the graph concave up or concave down? Explain in practical terms what this meansarrow_forwardRadioactive Decay The half-life of radium-226 is 1590 years.

- Population Growth The projected population of the United States for the years 2025 through 2055 can be modeled by P=307.58e0.0052t, where P is the population (in millions) and t is the time (in years), with t=25 corresponding to 2025. (a) Use a graphing utility to graph the function for the years 2025 through 2055. (b) Use the table feature of the graphing utility to create a table of values for the same time period as in part (a). (c) According to the model, during what year will the population of the United States exceed 430 million?arrow_forwardMouse Population A certain breed of mouse was introduced onto small island with an initial population of 320 mice, and scientists estimate that the mouse population is doubling every year. Find a function Nthat models the number of mice after tyears. Estimate the mouse population after 8 years.arrow_forwardFluid 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.)arrow_forward
- Inflating a balloon is spherical balloon is being inflated. The radius of the balloon is increasing at the rate of 1 cm/s.

What does this function represent?arrow_forwardPopulation Growth The growth G of a population of lower organisms over a day is a function of the population size n at the beginning of the day. If both n and G are measured in thousands of organisms, the formula is G=-0.03n2+n. a. Make a graph of G versus n. Include values of n up to 40 thousand onganisms. b. Calculate G35 and explain in practical terms what your answer means. c. For what two population levels will the population grow by 5 thousand over a day? d. If there is no population to start with, of course there will ne no growth. At what other population level will there be no growth?arrow_forwardSpawner-Recruit Model In fish management it is important to know the relationship between the abundance of the spawners also called the parent stock and the abundance of the recruitsthat is, those hatchlings surviving to maturity. According to the Ricker model, the number of recruits R as a function of the number of spawners P has the form R=APeBp for some positive constants A and B. This model describes well a phenomenon observed in some fisheries: A large spawning group can actually lead to a small group of recruits. In a study of the sockeye salmon, it was determined that A=4 and B=0.7. Here we measure P and R in thousands of salmon. a. Make a graph of R versus P for the sockeye salmon. Assume there are at most 3000 spawners. b. Find the maximum number of salmon recruits possible. c. If the number of recruits R is greater than the number of spawners P, then the difference R-P of the recruits can be removed by fishing, and next season there will once again be P spawners surviving to renew the cycle. What value of P gives the maximum value of R-P, the number of fish available for removal by fishing?arrow_forward
