Concept explainers
Approximating displacement The velocity of an object is given by the following functions on a specified interval. Approximate the displacement of the object on this interval by subdividing the interval into n subintervals. Use the left endpoint of each subinterval to compute the height of the rectangles.

- If 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_forwardFind the unknown value. 27. y varies jointly with x and the cube root of 2. If when x=2 and z=27,y=12, find y if x=5 and z=8.arrow_forwardFind length x. All dimensions are in millimetersarrow_forward
- Find the intensities of earthquakes whose magnitudes are aR=6.0andbR=7.9.arrow_forwardNear the surface of the moon, the distance that an object falls is a function of time. It is given by d(t)=2.6667t2 , where t is in seconds and d(t) is in feet. If an object is dropped from a certain height, find the average velocity of die object from t=1tot=2 .arrow_forward
