He looked at his watch, and the time read exactly 3:40 p.m. At this time, he started pumping gas into the tank. At exactly 3:44, the tank was full and he noticed that he had pumped 10.7 gallons. What is the average rate of flow of the gasoline into the gas tank?arrow_forward
- Draw a sketch of the square and cube functions. What are the similarities and differences in the graphs?arrow_forwardDVD Player sales The table shows the number of DVD play-ers sold in a small electronics store in the years 2003-2013. What was the average rate of change of sales between 2003 and 2013? Whatwas the average rate of change of sales between 2003 and 2004? What was the average rate of change of sales between 2004 and 2005? Between which two successive years did DVD player sales increase most quickly?arrow_forwardThe resistance of a copper wire carrying an electrical current is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. A copper wire with a diameter of 0.0126inch has a resistance of 64.9ohms per thousand feet. What length of 0.0201-inch-diameter copper wire will produce a resistance of 33.5ohms?arrow_forward
- Heart Disease In a certain country, the number of deaths due to heart disease decreased from 235 in one year to 221 in the next year. What percentage decrease in deaths due to heart disease does this represent?arrow_forwardExplain how to interpret the absolute value of acorrelation coefficient.arrow_forwardCan the average rate of change of a function be constant?arrow_forward
- What is the composition of two functions, fg ?arrow_forwardArctic Foxes The age/weight relationship of male Arctic foxes caught in Svalbard, Norway, can be estimated by the function --0.020(1-66) M(1) = 3583e where t is the age of the fox in days and M(t) is the weight of the fox in grams. Source: Journal of Mammology. (a) Estimate the weight of a male fox that is 250 days old. (b) Use M(t) to estimate the largest size that a male fox can attain. (Hìnt: Find lim M(t).) (c) Estimate the age of a male fox when it has reached 50% of its maximum weight. (d) Estimate the rate of change in weight of a male Arctic fox that is 250 days old. (Hint: Recall that D,e) = f'(1)e().) (e) Use a graphing calculator to graph M(t) and then describe the growth pattern. (f) Use the table function on a graphing calculator or a spread- sheet to develop a chart that shows the estimated weight and growth rate of male foxes for days 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, and 300.arrow_forward48arrow_forward
