The position function of an object moving along a straight line is given by s=f(t). The average velocity of an object over the t

ime interval [a,b] is the average rate of change of f over [a,b]; it’s velocity at t=a is the rate of change of f at a.
A ball is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 144ft/sec, so that it’s height (in feet) after t sec is given by s=f(t)= 144t-16t^2.
(A)What is the average velocity of the ball over the following time intervals?
[3,4]= ft/sec
[3,3.5]= ft/sec
[3,3.1]= ft/sec

(B) what is the instantaneous velocity at time t=3? Ft/sec

(C) what is the instantaneous velocity at time t=8? Ft/sec

(D) when will the ball hit the ground?

A) Position at time t = 3 s : 
<span>s₁ = 144×3 - 16×3² = 288 ft </span>
Position at time t = 4 s : 
<span>s₂ = 144×4 - 16×4² = 320 ft 
</span>
<span>Δs = s₂ - s₁ = 320 - 288 =  32ft </span>
<span>Δt = t₂ - t₁ = 4 - 3 = 1 s 

</span><span>Vavg[3, 4] = Δs / Δt = 32 / 1 = <u>32 ft/s</u>
</span><span>Vavg[3 , 3.5] = [(144×3.5 - 16×3.5²) - (144×3 - 16×3²)] / [3.5 - 3] = <u>40 ft/s</u>
</span><span>Vavg[4 , 4.1] = [(144×3.1 - 16×3.1²) - (144×3 - 16×3²)] / [3.1 - 3] = <u>4.64 ft/s</u></span>

B) lim [(144t - 16t²) - (144×4 - 16×3²)) / (t - 3)] = 
<span>t→3
</span>lim [(-16t² + 144t - 288) / (t - 3)] = 
<span>t→3
</span>
<span><u>48 ft/s</u>

</span>C) <span>lim [(144t - 16t²) - (144×8 - 16×8²)) / (t - 8)] = </span>
<span>t→8 </span>

<span>lim [(-16t² + 144t - 128) / (t - 8)] = </span>
<span>t→8 </span>

<span>lim (-16t + 16) = </span>
<span>t→8 </span>

<span><u>-112 ft/s</u> 

D) </span><span>144t - 16t² = 0 </span>
<span>(144 - 16t) t = 0 </span>
<span>t = 0 </span>
<span>or </span>
<span>144 - 16t = 0

A warehouse contains 7250 books in it. Books are being shipped from the warehouse such that the number of books decreased by 150
Lapatulllka [165]

Using an linear function, we have that:

  • The inequality is: -150D + 7250 < 2000
  • The warehouse will start printing more books on the 35th day, hence it won't be printing on the 30th day.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem:

  • A warehouse contains 7250 books in it, hence b = 7250.
  • Books are being shipped from the warehouse such that the number of books decreased by 150 per day, hence m = -150.

Thus, the number of books each day is modeled by the following function:

B(D) = -150D + 7250

It will begin to print more books when the warehouse contains less than 2000 books, hence, the inequality is:

B(D) < 2000

-150D + 7250 < 2000

Then:

-150D < -5250

150D > 5250

D > \frac{5250}{150}

D > 35

The warehouse will start printing more books on the 35th day, hence it won't be printing on the 30th day.
