Concept explainers

Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Chapter 7.3, Problem 41E

Running In 1987 , Canadian Ben Johnson set a world record in the 100 -m sprint.(The record was later taken away when he was found to have used an anabolic steroid to enhance his performance.) His speed at various times in the race is given in the following table ∗ . Source: Information Graphics.

Time(sec) Speed(mph)
0 0
1.84 12.9
3.80 23.8
6.38 26.3
7.23 26.3
8.96 26.0
9.83 25.7

a. Use the information in the table and left endpoints to estimate the distance that Johnson ran in miles. You will first need to calculate Δ t for each interval. At the end, you will need to divide by 3600 (the number of seconds in an hour), since the speed is in miles per hour.

b. Repeat part a, using right endpoints.

c. Wait a minute, we know that the distance Johnson ran is 100   m . Divide this by 1609 , the number of meters in a mile, to find how far Johnson ran in miles. Is your answer from part a or part b closer to the true answer? Briefly explain why you think this answer should be more accurate.

d.

find the zeros of the function algebraically:   f(x) = 9x2 - 3x - 2
Rylee's car is stuck in the mud. Roman and Shanice come along in a truck to help pull her out. They attach one end of a tow strap to the front of the car and the other end to the truck's trailer hitch, and the truck starts to pull. Meanwhile, Roman and Shanice get behind the car and push. The truck generates a horizontal force of 377 lb on the car. Roman and Shanice are pushing at a slight upward angle and generate a force of 119 lb on the car. These forces can be represented by vectors, as shown in the figure below. The angle between these vectors is 20.2°. Find the resultant force (the vector sum), then give its magnitude and its direction angle from the positive x-axis. 119 lb 20.2° 377 lb
