Chapter 8, Problem 1SYU
To determine

Whether the statement “If a function gives an indication of the quantity Q of pollutants, in parts per million, at a distance of x kilometers at time t from a waste incinerator post the incineration has come to an end. Since APPLIED CALCULUS-PRINT COMPANION (LL), Chapter 8, Problem 1SYU then the units Q=f(x,t) of 1.5 are ppm.” is true or false.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 1SYU

The provided statement is false. The unit of 1.5 is not ppm.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

A statement,

If a function Q=f(x,t) gives an indication of the quantity Q of pollutants, in parts per million, at a distance of x kilometers at time t from a waste incinerator post the incineration has come to an end. Since f(1.5,6)=4.1 then the units of 1.5 are ppm.”

Consider the given information that if a function Q=f(x,t) gives an indication of the quantity Q of pollutants, in parts per million, at a distance of x kilometers at time t from a waste incinerator post the incineration has come to an end. Since f(1.5,6)=4.1 then the units of 1.5 are ppm.”

The function indicated Q=f(x,t) is a two variable function where, x is the distance in kilometers and t is time. Q is indication of the quantity. Since parts per million is not distance and in f(x,t) as f(1.5,6)

x=1.5. Thus, the unit of x should be kilometers.

Thus, the provided statement is false.

A manufacturer of handcrafted wine racks has determined that the cost to produce x units per month is given by C = 0.3x² + 7,000. How fast is the cost per month changing when production is changing at the rate of 14 units per month and the production level is 80 units? Costs are increasing at the rate of $ (Round to the nearest dollar as needed.) per month at this production level.
