One study modeled cyanide in the bloodstream after smoking a cigarette using C=0.1+0.3t0.6e0.17t, where C is the concentration of cyanide in the bloodstream, measured in nanograms per deciliter, and t is the time, in minutes, since smoking a cigarette. a. Make a graph of the concentration of cyanide during the first hour after smoking a cigarette. Add the line corresponding to the target level of 0.3 nanogram per deciliter. b. During which period is the concentration of cyanide 0.3 nanogram per deciliter or higher?arrow_forwardReminder Round all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Walking and Running You live east of campus, and you are walking from campus toward your home at a constant speed. When you get there, you rest for 5minutes and then run back west at a rapid speed. After a few minutes, you reach your destination, and then you rest for 10minutes. Measure your location as your distance west of your home, and make graphs of your location and velocity.arrow_forwardReminderRound all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Wind ChillThe graph in Figure 1.40 shows the temperature T = Tv adjusted for wind chill as a function of the velocity v of the wind when the thermometer reads 30 degrees Fahrenheit. The adjusted temperature T shows the temperature that has an equivalent cooling power when there is no wind. a. At what wind speed is the temperature adjusted for wind chill equal to 0? b. Your answer in part a is the solution of an equation involving Tv. Which equation? c. At what value of v would a small increase in v have the greatest effect on Tv? In other words, at what wind speed could you expect a small increase in wind speed to cause the greatest change in wind chill? Explain your reasoning. d. Suppose the wind speed is 45 miles per hour. Judging from the shape of the graph, how significant would you expect the effect on Tv to be if the wind speed increased?

Length of Skid Marks Versus Speed When a car skids to a stop, the length L, in feet, of the skid marks is related to the speed S, in miles per hour, of the car by the power function L=130hS2. Here the constant h is the friction coefficient, which depends on the road surface. For dry concrete pavement, the value of h is about 0.85. a. If a driver going 55milesperhour on dry concrete jams on the brakes and skids to a stop. how long will the skid marks be? b. A policeman investigating an accident on dry concrete pavement finds skid marks 230feet long. The speed limit in the area is 60milesperhour. Is the driver in danger of getting a speeding ticket? c This part of the problem applies to any road surface, so the value of h is not known. Suppose you are driving at 60milesperhour, but, because of approaching darkness, you wish to slow to a speed that will cut your emergency stopping distance in half. What should your new speed be? Hint: You should use the homogeneity property of power functions here. By what factor should you change your speed to ensure that L changes by a factor of 0.5?arrow_forwardReminder Round all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Newtons Law of Cooling says that a hot object cools rapidly when the difference between its temperature and that of the surrounding air is large, but the object cools more slowly when it nears room temperature.

Hair Growth When you are 18 years old you have a hair that is 14 centimeters long, and your hair grows about 12 centimeters each year.

Cleaning Contaminated Water A tank of water is contaminated with 60 pounds of salt. In order to bring the salt concentration down to a level consistent with EPA standards, clean water is being piped into tank, and the well-mixed overflow is being collected for removal to a toxic-waste site. The result is that at the end of each hour, there is 22 less salt in the tank than at the beginning of the hour. Let S=S(t) denote the number of pounds of salt in the tank t hours after the flushing process begins. a. Explain why S is an exponential function and find its hourly decay factor. b. Give a formula for S. c. Make a graph of S that shows the flushing process during the first 15 hours, and describe in words how the salt removal process progresses. d. In order to meet EPA standards, there can be no more than 3 pounds of salt in the tank. How long must the process continue before EPA standards are met? e. Suppose this cleanup procedure costs 8000 per hour to operate. How much does it cost to reduce the amount of salt from 60 pounds to 3 pounds? How much does it cost to reduce the amount of salt from 3 pounds to 0.1 pound?arrow_forwardReminderRound all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Water in a TankWater is leaking out of a tank.

What do you conclude about the nature of the function W during this period? d.After about 10 minutes, the hole in the tank suddenly gets larger, and water begins to leak out of the tank at 12 gallons per minute. i.Make a graph of W versus t. Be sure to incorporate linearity where it is appropriate. ii.Make a graph of dWdt versus t.arrow_forward

Let N=N(t) denote the number of sheep in a certain protected area at time t. a. Explain the meaning of dNdt in practical terms. b. A small breeding population of bighorn sheep is initially introduced into the protected area. Food is plentiful, and conditions are generally favor-able for bighorn sheep. What would you expect to be true about the sign of dNdt during this period? c. This summer a number of dead sheep were discovered, and all of them were infected with a disease that is known to spread rapidly among bighorn sheep and is nearly always fatal. How would you expect an unchecked spread of this disease to affect dNdt? d. If the reintroduction program goes well, then the population of bighorn sheep will grow to the site that the available food supply can support and will remain at about that same level. What would you expect to be true of dNdt when this happens?arrow_forwardReminder Round all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Drug 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.
