Concept explainers

Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experime…

Chapter 2.3, Problem 9E

In each of the next set of problems, assume that the data can be modeled bya straight line and that the trend continues indefinitely. Use two data points tofind such a line and then estimate the requested quantities. (See Example1.)

Baseball Suppose a baseball is thrown at 85 miles per hour. Theball will travel 320 feet when hit by a bat swung at 50 miles per hourand will travel 440 feet when hit by a bat swung at 80 miles per hour. Let y be the number of feet traveled by the ball when hit by a bat swungat x miles per hour. (Note: The preceding data are valid for[&50|leq|x|leq|90&], where the bat is 35 inches long, weighs 32 ounces, andstrikes a waist-high pitch so that the place of the swing lies at [&10|deg|&] from the diagonal). [Data from: Robert K. Adair, The Physics of Baseball(HarperCollins, 1990)]. How much farther will a ball travel for each mile-per-hour increase in the speed of the bat?
