Answer to Problem 52E
The variable expression for total number of points is obtained as:
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Each field goal (FG) is equal to 3 points and each kicked point after touchdown (PAT) is equal to 1 point.
Calculation:
Let, p and
Since, each field goal (FG) is equal to 3 points and each kicked point after touchdown (PAT) is equal to 1 point.
Hence,
The variable expression for total number of points is obtained as:
b.
To-determine the total number of points for each kicker.

Answer to Problem 52E
Total number of FGs and PATs scored by George Blanda is
Total number of FGs and PATs scored by Nick Lowery is
Total number of FGs and PATs scored by Norm Johnson is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Each field goal (FG) is equal to 3 points and each kicked point after touchdown (PAT) is equal to 1 point.
From the table provided in the question,
Number of FGs and PATs scored by George Blanda is 335 and 943 respectively.
Number of FGs and PATs scored by Nick Lowery is 383 and 562 respectively.
Number of FGs and PATs scored by Norm Johnson is 366 and 638 respectively.
Calculation:
Since, each field goal (FG) is equal to 3 points and each kicked point after touchdown (PAT) is equal to 1 point.
Hence,
Number of FGs and PATs scored by George Blanda is 335 and 943 respectively.
So,
Total number of FGs and PATs scored by George Blanda is obtained as:
Number of FGs and PATs scored by Nick Lowery is 383 and 562 respectively.
So,
Total number of FGs and PATs scored by Nick Lowery is obtained as:
Number of FGs and PATs scored by Norm Johnson is 366 and 638 respectively.
So,
Total number of FGs and PATs scored by Norm Johnsonis obtained as:
c.
List the players from least total number of points to greatest.

So,
Total number of FGs and PATs scored by Norm Johnson is obtained as:
Hence,
The player can be listed as:
Player | Total number of points |
George Blanda | 1948 |
Nick Lowery | 1711 |
Norm Johnson | 1736 |

The water heater is shut off and the water cools to the temperature of the surrounding air, which is 60°F. The water cools slowly because of the insulation inside the heater, and the value of k is measured as 0.00351. a. Write a function that models the temperature T (t) (in °F) of the water t hours after the water heater is shut off. b. What is the temperature of the water 12 hr after the heater is shut off?
