German TV and radio users pay an annual license fee of 200 euros. In 2008, the German poet Friedrich Schiller, who died in 1805, was sent reminders to pay his license fee.1 (The reminders were sent to an elementary school named after Schiller, despite a teacher pointing out that "the addressee is no longer in a position to listen to the radio or watch television".)

Limits

When it comes to calculus, limits are considered to be a very important topic of discussion. The main importance of limit lies in expressing the value of a function as it gets closer to a certain value. Also, limits can help you to understand other topics, such as continuity and differentiability better. In a broader sense, every calculus notion is a limit. Other branches of calculus have also been derived from limits.

Question

German TV and radio users pay an annual license fee of 200 euros. In 2008, the German poet Friedrich Schiller, who died in 1805,
was sent reminders to pay his license fee.1 (The reminders were sent to an elementary school named after Schiller, despite a teacher
pointing out that "the addressee is no longer in a position to listen to the radio or watch television".) Assume the license fee had been
charged at a continuous rate of 200 euros per year since 1805 and that the continuous interest rate was 2% per year over this
period. If Schiller were charged the license fee, with interest, since his death, how much would he have owed by 2008?
Round your answer to two decimal places.
Schiller would have owed
i
euros.

Suppose that with a certain phone company, an international long distance phone call from Canada to Brazil costs $0.90 for the first minute (up to and including 60 seconds), plus $0.50 for each additional minute or part of a minute. Note: "Part of a minute" means that if a new minute is started even just by one second, a full minute is charged. For example, a 5 min 1 sec phone call costs the same as a 5 min 50 sec phone call and the same as a 6 min O sec phone call. Suppose C (t) is the function that gives the cost of making a t minute long phone call. On a piece of paper, sketch a graph showing C (t) (with C on the y-axis and t on the a-axis). Then use your graph to evaluate each of the following: (Write DNE for undefined.) C (2.5) [ Select ] C (4) = [ Select ] lim C (t) [ Select ] 2+3.1 lim C (t) [ Select ] lim C (t) = [ Select ] lim C (t) = [ Select ]
During his short stint as Shadow Finance Minister, Barnaby Joyce displayed a curious grasp of numbers. One of his most infamous exclamations was “All this billions, quillions, Brazilians.” Less well known was his tax-reform proposal, recommending that if you earn $x per day, you are taxed x% of that amount (with the understanding that you pay 100% tax if you earn $100 or more per day. Under Senator Barnaby’s plan, which amount x gives you the highest earnings after tax has been taken out?
