Problem 3. A driver on a desert road discovers a hole in the gas tank
leaking gas at the constant rate of 4 gallons per hour. This driver, having no
way to plug the hole, decides to drive for as long as the gas supply allows.
The gauge reading indicates the tank is three-fourths full, which means that
the tank contains 14 gallons. The car consumes gas at the rate of 18 miles per
gallon at 40 mph. For each 5 mph below 40 mph add one-half mile per gallon
to this rate; for each 5 mph above 40 mph, subtract one mile per gallon from
this rate. If the driver chooses the best constant speed in order to get the
maximum driving distance, find the maximum distance that the 14 gallons
will allow. Assume that gas consumption is a continuous function of speed.
Problem 8: In a biathalon race you first ride a bicycle at an average speed of 19.9 mi/h for 22 miles, then you must run for another 5.5 miles.
With what average speed, in miles per hour, must you run if your average speed for the entire race is to be 11.8 mi/h?

- #2) If a Kevlar fabric company can produce 40,362.7 square yards per year for bullet proof vests and the financial profit per square yard is $37.00, how much money does the company profit each second the business is in operation (assuming they are constantly producing Kevlar 24 hours every day, use 365 days in one year)?

Two researchers from Fly By Night Industries conduct an experiment with a sports car on a test track. While one is driving the car, the other will look at the speedometer and record the speed of the car at one- second intervals. Now, these aren't official researchers and this isn't an official test track, so the speeds are in miles per hour using an analog speedometer. The data set they create is: {(1,5), (2, 2), (3, 30), (4, 50), (5, 65), (6,70)} Z = 25 They notice that the acceleration is not a constant value. They decide that a fourth-degree polynomial will be the best to describe the speed of the car as a function of time. The task here is to determine the fourth-degree polynomial that fits this data set the best. 1. Construct the system of normal equations A¹ AX = A¹b. AT A = A¹b = 2.
