The probability of precipitation in a California city varies from a peak of 0.38 (38%) in January to a low of 0.08 (8%) in July. Assume that the percentage of
precipitation varies monthly and behaves like a cosine curve.
Part 1 of 2
(a) Write a function of the form P (t) = A cos (Bt-C) + D to model the precipitation probability. The value P (t) is the probability of precipitation (as a
decimal), for month t, with January as t = 1.

4. As a tornado moves, its speed increases. The function S(d) = 93 log d + 65
a) Graph this function.
b) Calculate the average rate of change for the speed of the wind at the centre of a tornado from
mile 10 to mile 100.
c) Estimate the rate at which the speed of the wind at the centre of a tornado is changing at the
moment it has travelled its 10th mile and its 100th mile.
d) Use your graph to discuss how the rate at which the speed of the wind at the centre of a tornado
changes as the distance that the tornado travels increases.
As the speed of a train increases, the amount of power needed to maintain that speed increases, and the rate
of power increase also increases. Let P = f(v) be the power, in megawatts, needed for the train to maintain a
speed of v kilometers per hour.
(a) Sketch a possible graph of f.
(b) For each of the functions f, f', and f", decide whether the function is positive or negative, and explain
your answers.
(c) What requires a greater increase in power: increasing the train's speed from 100 to 150 kilometers per
hour, or increasing the train's speed from 200 to 250 kilometers per hour? Explain, based on your
answer to part (b).

After 1 hour and 15 minutes, her assistant found that 80,000 bacteria were present. 2. (a) What was the size of the initial population? Predict the size of the culture at t=3 hours. What was the size of the population at 40 minutes? Explain and justify your answers. (b) Create a graph of the population as a function of time. Find an equation that can be used to predict the size of the population at any time t. (c) Examine the rate at which the bacteria culture is growing. How fast growing after 1 hour? After 1.5 hours? After 2 hours? Use a time interval of h = 0.01 hours to estimate these rates. Interpret these rates in terms of the context of the problem situation. How do these three rates compare? (d) the culturearrow_forwardWhen drugs are administered into the bloodstream, the amount of the drug present decreases continuously at a constant rate. The amount of a certain drug, Xanaz, in the bloodstream is modeled by the function, where is the initial dosage, and t is the time (in hours) after the initial dose was given. The following chart shows the relationship between the original dose and how much is sti in the system after so much time. Xanax (3mg) amount still in system after X hours 2.5 1.5 0.5 2 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 Number of hours after dose was taken After how many hours will there be approximately 1/2 of the original dose in the body? 3. 2. 1.
