Pipe is to be laid from point A in a rectangular plot of size 10 x 20 feet to a point P on side BC and from there on to C as shown in red in the figure below. The cost of laying pipe within the plot is
$c per foot (it must be underground), while the cost of laying pipe along the side of the plot is $d per foot.

(a) Determine the total cost, f(x), as a function of c, d and x, where x is the distance from P to B. (Note that f(x) is discontinuous at x = 0.)
f(x) =
dollars
(b) What is the cost of laying the pipe on the side of the plot (x = 0) when c = 30 and d = 25? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
(c) What is the least cost of laying the pipe when c = 30 and d = 25? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Distance between cars At noon, car A is 10 feet to the right
and 20 feet ahead of car B, as shown in the figure. If car A
continues at 88 ft/sec (or 60 mi/hr) while car B continues at
66 f/sec (or 45 mi/hr), express the distance d between the
cars as a function of t, where t denotes the number of sec-
onds after noon.

- The head circumference C of a child is related to the height H of the child (both in inches) through the functionH(C) = 2.15C - 10.53 (a) Express the head circumference C as a function of height H.(b) Verify that C = C(H) is the inverse of H = H(C) by showing that H(C(H) ) = H and C(H(C) ) = C.(c) Predict the head circumference of a child who is 26 inches tall.arrow_forwardDefind constant-valued functions ?arrow_forwardUnderstanding symmetry:When a function y = f(x) has the property that f(−x) = −f(x) for every value of x in the domain of f , the function is said to be an odd function and its graph in a rectangular coordinate system is symmetrical with respect to the origin. When a function r = f(θ) has the property that f(−θ) = −f(θ) for every value ofθ in the domain of f , what geometrical property would the graph of r = f(θ) have when it is plotted in a polar coordinate system?arrow_forward
- Bronze is an alloy, or mixture, of copper and tin. The alloy initially contains 2 kg copper and 8 kg tin. You add x kg of copper to this 10 kg of alloy. The concentration of copper in the alloy is a function of x: f(x) = Concentration of copper (a) Find a formula for f(x) The statements below correspond to questions (b) - (f): A The concentration of the alloy after removing 0.7 kg of copper. B The amount of copper needed to be added/removed in order to have an alloy with a copper concentration of 70%. C The concentration of the alloy after removing 1.5 kg of copper. D The total amount of copper which can be removed in order for the alloy to become pure tin. E The total amount of the alloy you have if its concentration of copper is 70%. F The initial concentration of the alloy. G The concentration of the alloy after adding 0.7 kg of copper. H There is no such feature on the graph, so this has no physical meaning.

- (Ecology) A sewage treatment plant accidentally discharged untreated sewage into a lake. This affected the amount of dissolved oxygen in the lake water. Experimental data suggested that the amount of oxygen in the lake follows the function with t measured in days. Is oxygen increasing or decreasing at t = 5 days? At t = 15 days?arrow_forwardI need the answer as soon as possiblearrow_forwardThe amount of copper ore produced from a copper mine in Arizona is modeled by the function f(x) = 500 + 37x where x is the number of years since 2005 and f(x) is measured in thousands of tons.
