a .
To find: is the given statement uses the word function in way that is mathematically correct.
a .
Answer to Problem 94E
No
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The statement, “The amount in your savings account is a function of your salary”.
The amount in the savings account depends upon how much amount you deposit in the account and how much you spend.
Hence, the use of word “function” is not mathematically correct in this case.
b.
To find: is the given statement uses the word function in way that is mathematically correct.
b.
Answer to Problem 94E
Yes
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The statement, “The speed at which a free-falling baseball strikes the ground is a function of the height from which it was dropped.
This fact can be verified by the Newton’s law of motion, the greater the height from which the ball is dropped, the greater will be its speed while striking the ground
Hence, the use of word “function” is mathematically correct in this case.

- i attached the question and the way i solved it, i believe i made an error, could you point it out for me because the correct answer is 3pi/2correct answer is D, please see both attached photosarrow_forwardQuestion 3 and 4arrow_forwardcould you explain this using stoke theoremi already circled the correct answerarrow_forward
- can you explain why the answer is 1/3arrow_forwardThe position of a particle that moves along the x-axis is defined by x = - 3t^2 + 12^t - 6 f, where t is in seconds. For the time interval t = 0 to t = 3 s, (1) plot the position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time; (2) calculate the distance traveled; and (3) determine the displacement of the particleshow the graph and write the solution with a penarrow_forwardThe position of a particle that moves along the x-axis is defined by x = - 3t^2 + 12^t - 6 f, where t is in seconds.

- The answer for number 1 is D Could you show me whyarrow_forwardThe path of a particle moving in a straight line is given by s = t^3 - 6t^2+ 9t + 4, where s is in ft and t in seconds. a. Finds and a when v = 0. b. Find s and v when a = 0.show the graph if needed and write the solution with a penarrow_forwardfind the roots it may help to know b =1arrow_forward
