Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experime…

After a great deal of experimentation, two college senior physics majors determined that when a bottle of French champagne is shaken several times, held upright, and uncorked, its cork travels according to the function below, where s is its height (in feet) above the ground t seconds after being released. s(t)=-16t² + 30t+3 a. How high will it go? b. How long is it in the air?
+6x²+135x+1) (0≤x≤10). a) Find the number of units The total profit P(x) (in thousands of dollars) from a sale of x thousand units of a new product is given by P(x) = In (-x²+6x² + 135x+ that should be sold in order to maximize the total profit. b) What is the maximum profit?
The fox population in a certain region has an annual growth rate of 8 percent per year. It is estimated that the population in the year 2000 was 22600. (a) Find a function that models the population t years after 2000 (t = 0 for 2000). Your answer is P(t) = (b) Use the function from part (a) to estimate the fox population in the year 2008. Your answer is (the answer should be an integer)
