A company’s sales, in millions of peso, of electrical appliances can be modelled by S(x) = -1.3x3 + 16x2+ 25.4x + 576, where x is the number of years since 2005. Use synthetic substitution to estimate the sales for 2018 and 2020. Do you think this model is useful in estimating future sales? Why?
Scientists in Malaysia have collected data revealing that there is a linear relationship between the length (snout to vent) of the beaked sea snake and the length of its catfish prey such that
l(x) = 2.41 + 0.12x,
where x is the snout-vent length (cm) of the snake and l(x) is the predicted length (cm) of the catfish. Source: Biotropica.
a. Use the function above to estimate the size of catfish that a snake which has a snout-vent length of 70 cm will choose for prey.
b. Calculate the derivative of this function and interpret the results.
4. Discuss the difference between degree turning point and X intercepts of a power function

- We opened this section with a study showing that late in the semester, procrastinating students reported more symptoms of physical illness than their nonprocrastinating peers.a. At the beginning of the semester, procrastinators reported an average of 0.8 symptoms, increasing at a rate of 0.45 symptoms per week. Write a function that models the average number of symptoms after x weeks.b. At the beginning of the semester, nonprocrastinators reported an average of 2.6 symptoms, increasing at a rate of 0.15 symptoms per week. Write a function that models the average number of symptoms after x weeks.c. By which week in the semester did both groups report the same number of symptoms of physical illness? For that week, how many symptoms were reported by each group?How is this shown in Figure.arrow_forwardWhere is the constant of proportionality on the graph?arrow_forwardThe median size of a new single-family house built in the United States between 1987 and 2001 can be modeled by the equation H(x) = 0.359x3 − 15.198x2 + 221.738x + 862.514 square feet where x is the number of years after 1980. 1. Determine the value of x in the domain 7 ≤ x ≤ 21 for which the median house size was increasing least rapidly. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) 2. Thus, in which year was the median house size was increasing least rapidly? 3. Find the corresponding house size. (Round your answer to one decimal place.) 4.
