- Forensics At 8:30 A.M., a coroner went to the home of a person who had died during the night. In order to estimate the time of death, the coroner took the person’s temperature twice. At 9:00 A.M. the temperature was 85.7F, and at 11:00 A.M. the temperature was 82.8F. From these two temperatures, the coroner was able to determine that the time elapsed since death and the body temperature were related by the formula t=10lnT7098.670 where t is the time in hours elapsed since the person died and T is the temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) of the person’s body. (This formula comes from a general cooling principle called Newton’s Law of Cooling. It uses the assumptions that the person had a normal body temperature of 98.6F at death and that the room temperature was a constant 70F.) Use the formula to estimate the time of death of the person.arrow_forwardCompound Interest Use the formula A=P1+rnnt to calculate the balance A of an investment when P=$3000, r=6 and t=10years, and compounding is done (a) by the day, (b) by the hour, (c) by the minute, and (d) by the second. Does increasing the number of compoundings per year result in unlimited growth of the balance? Explain.arrow_forwardBouncing Ball A ball is dropped from a height of 9 ft. The elasticity of the ball is such that it always bounces up one- third the distance it has fallen..

(b) Find a formula for the total distance the ball has traveled at the instant it hits the ground the nth time.arrow_forward
- Radioactive Decay The half-life of a radioactive substance is the time H that it takes for half of the substance to change form through radioactive decay. This number does not depend on the amount with which you start. For example, carbon-14 is known to have a half-life of H=5770 years. Thus, if you begin with 1 gram of carbon-14, then 5770 years later you will have 12 gram of carbon-14. And if you begin with 30 grams of carbon-14, then after 5770 years there will be 15 grams left. In general, radioactive substances decay according to the formula A=A00.5tH Where H is the half-life, t is the elapsed time, A0 is the amount you start with the amount when t=0, and A is the amount left at time t. a. Uranium-228 has a half-life H of 9.3 minutes. Thus, the decay function for this isotope of uranium is A=A00.5t9.3, where t is measured in minutes. Suppose we start with grams of uranium-228. i. How much uranium-228 is left after 2 minutes? ii.How long will you have to wait until there are only 3 grams left? b. Uranium-235 is the isotope of uranium that can be used to make nuclear bombs. It has a half-life of 713 million years. Suppose we start with 5 grams of uranium-235. i. How much uranium-235 is left after 200 million years? ii. How long will you have to wait until there are only 3 grams left?arrow_forwardEnlarging a Field A farmer has a rectangular cow pasture with width 100 ft. and length 180 ft. An increase the number of requires the farmer to increase the area of her pasture. She has two options: Option 1: Increase the length of the field. 0ption 2: Increase the width at the field. It costs $10 per foot to install new fence. Moving the old fence costs $6 per linear foot of fence to be moved. (a) For each option, find a formula for A, the area gained, in terms of the cost C. (b) Complete the table for the area gained in terms of the cost for each option. (c) If the farmer has $1200 for this project, which option gives her the greatest gain in area for her money? What if she had $2000 for the project?arrow_forward
