how did the nature of work shape early colonial society in north america? does it still shape society today?

4 0

Since in colonial North America, many people did not have the luxuries we have now, their entire lives revolved around work. Without a good harvest season or another product to trade for food, a family could easily go hungry and starve to death. As exemplified through Jamestown's "Starving Time," the leader, whose name escapes me at this time, decided that if the colonists were not willing to work, they would not receive any food. The second question is more of an opinion question that I cannot answer for you.

Hi there!

To find the total amount of people that have ENTERED by t = 20, we must take the integral of the appropriate function.

$\text{Amount that entered} = \int\limits^{20}_{10} {S(t)} \, dt \\\\ = \int\limits^{20}_{10} {80 - 12cos(\frac{t}{5})} \, dt$

Evaluate using a calculator:

$= 899.97 \approx \boxed{900\text{ people}}$

To solve, we can find the total amount of people that have entered of the interval and subtract the total amount of people that have left from this value.

In other terms:
$\text{Amount of people} = \int\limits^{20}_{10} {S(t)} \, dt - \int\limits^{20}_{10} {R(t)} \, dt$

We can evaluate using a calculator (math-9 on T1-84):

$\text{\# of people} = \int\limits^{20}_{10} {80-12cos(\frac{t}{5})} \, dt - \int\limits^{20}_{10} {12e^{\frac{t}{10}}+20} \, dt$

$= 899.97 - 760.49 = 139.47 \approx \boxed{139 \text{ people}}$

If:
$P(t) = \int\limits^t_{10} {S(t) - R(t)} \, dt$

Then:

$\frac{dP}{dt} = P'(t)= \frac{d}{dt}\int\limits^t_{10} {S(t) - R(t)} \, dt = S(t) - R(t)$

Evaluate at t = 20:

$S(20) = 80 - 12cos(\frac{20}{5}) = 87.844\\\\R(20) = 12e^{\frac{20}{10}} + 20 = 108.669$

$S(20) - R(20) = 87.844 - 108.669 = -20.823$

This means that at t = 20, there is a NET DECREASE of people at the movie theater of around 20.823 (21) people per hour.

To find the maximum, we must use the first-derivative test.

Set S(t) - R(t) equal to 0:

$80 - 12cos(\frac{t}{5}) - 12e^{\frac{t}{10}} - 20 = 0\\\\60 - 12(cos(\frac{t}{5}) + e^{\frac{t}{10}})= 0$

Graph the function with a graphing calculator and set the function equal to y = 0:

According to the graph, the graph of the first derivative changes from POSITIVE to NEGATIVE at t ≈ 17.78 hours, so there is a MAXIMUM at this value.

Thus, at t = 17.78 hours, the amount of people at the movie theater is a MAXIMUM.
