Answer:
- 0 ≤ m ≤ 7
- 0.4541 cm/month; average rate of growth over last 4 months of study
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part A</u>:
The study was concluded after 7 months. The fish cannot be expected to maintain exponential growth for any significant period beyond the observation period. A reasonable domain is ...
0 ≤ m ≤ 7
__
<u>Part B</u>:
The y-intercept is the value when m=0. It is the length of the fish at the start of the study.
__
<u>Part C</u>:
The average rate of change on the interval [3, 7] is given by ...
(f(7) -f(3))/(7 -3) = (4(1.08^7) -4(1.08^3))/4 = 1.08^3·(1.08^4 -1)
≈ 0.4541 cm/month
This is the average growth rate of the fish in cm per month over the period from 3 months to 7 months.
Answer:
The distance from the shoreline from P the pipe from the island will reach land in order to minimize the total construction cost is 0 m, or the pipe should be routed to the point P
Step-by-step explanation:
We note that, cost to lay pipe in water = 2.3 × cost to lay pipe on land
Distance of the small resort on the island from point p on the shoreline = 3 miles
Location of the closest source of fresh water is 10 miles along the shoreline from p
∴ The small resort, the point p and the closest source of the fresh water on the shoreline together form a right triangle with sides
Height = 3 miles
Base = 10 miles and
Hypotenuse =
To find the cost of laying the pipeline by the various route, we multiply the water routes by 2.3 and the land routes by 1 and we get
Costs:
Height = Water route = 2.3 × 3 miles = 6.9
Base = Land route = 1 × 10 miles = 10
Hypotenuse = Water route = 2.3 × 10.44 miles = 24.012
Therefore, the two routes are either
10 miles to point p and 3 miles across the water to the resort with a cost = 10 + 6.9 = 16.9 or
Directly to the small resort through 10.44 miles across the water with cost = 24.012
Therefore, to minimize cost, the pipe should come from the resort to P from there to the fresh water source.
That is the distance from the shoreline from P the pipe from the island will reach land in order to minimize the total construction cost = 0 m.
