- Repeat the previous exercise to find the formula forthe APY of an account that compounds daily. Usethe results from this and the previous exercise todevelop a function I(n)for the APY of any accountthat compounds n times per year.arrow_forwardIf you travel 300 miles on the first day and then drive v miles per hour for t hours on the second day, then the total distance traveled over the teo-day period is given by d=300+vt miles. Use a formula to express v as a function of d and t for this two-day event.arrow_forwardFor a person at rest, the velocity v (in liters per second) of airflow during a respiratory cycle (the time from the beginning of one breath to the beginning of the next) is modeled by v=0.85sint/3, where t is the time (in seconds). a Find the time for one full respiratory cycle. b Find the number of cycles per minute. c Sketch the graph of the velocity function. Use the graph to confirm your answer in part a by finding two times when new breaths begin. (Inhalation occurs when v0, and exhalation occurs when v0.)arrow_forward
