- Resale Value: The resale value V, in dollars, of a certain car is a function of the number of year t since the year 2012. In the year 2012, the resale ale is 18,000 and each year thereafter the resale value decreases by 1700. a. What is the resale value in the year 2013? b. Find a formula for V as a function of t. c. Make a graph of V versus t covering the first 4 years since the year 2012. d. Use functional notation to express the resale value in the year 2015, and then calculate that value.arrow_forwardPopulation Growth The projected population of the United States for the years 2025 through 2055 can be modeled by P=307.58e0.0052t, where P is the population (in millions) and t is the time (in years), with t=25 corresponding to 2025. (a) Use a graphing utility to graph the function for the years 2025 through 2055. (b) Use the table feature of the graphing utility to create a table of values for the same time period as in part (a). (c) According to the model, during what year will the population of the United States exceed 430 million?arrow_forwardPopulation Growth The projected population of the United States for the years 2025 through 2055 can be modeled by P=307.58e0.0052t, where P is the population (in millions) and t is the time (in years), with t=25 corresponding to 2025.

- a. Use a formula to express the altitude of a helicopter as a function of time. Be sure to explain the meaning of the letters you choose and the units. b. Express using functional notation the altitude of the helicopter 90 seconds after takeoff, and then calculate that value. c. Make a graph of altitude versus time covering the first 3 minutes of the flight. Explain how the description of the function is reflected in the shape of the graph.arrow_forwardhow do i graph all of what is asking and how would it look like?arrow_forwardf(c+Ax)-f(c) The expression lim Ax→0 is important in the study of calculus. Match the parts of Ax this expression with their meanings in context of the graph. C+Ax 1. The y-coordinate of point P. 2. The y-coordinate of point Q. 3. The horizontal distance from point P to point Q. f(c+Ax)-f(c) Ax lim Ax→0 f(c+Ax)=f(c) Ax 4. The vertical distance from point P to point Q. f(c + Ax) 5. The straight-line distance from P to Q. f(c + Ax) – f(c) 6. The slope of the secant line joining P and Q. 7. The slope of the tangent line at P. 8. The slope of the tangent line at Q.arrow_forward
