(1.1/1.2: Interpolating polynomials) Say we want to find a polynomialf(x) ofdegree 3,f(x) =a0+a1x+a2x2+a3x3,satisfying some inte

rpolation conditions. In each case below, write a system of linearequations whose solutions are (a0,a1,a2,a3). You don’t need to solve the system.(a) We wantf(x) to pass through the points (−1,−1),(1,2),(2,1) and (3,5).(b) We wantf(x) to pass through (1,0) with derivative +2 and (2,3) withderivative−1

(a) If

<em>f(x)</em> = <em>a</em>₀ + <em>a</em>₁ <em>x </em>+<em> a</em>₂ <em>x</em> ² + <em>a</em>₃ <em>x</em> ³

then from the given conditions we get the system of equations,

<em>f</em> (-1) = <em>a</em>₀ - <em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> a</em>₂ - <em>a</em>₃ = -1

<em>f</em> (1) = <em>a</em>₀ + <em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> a</em>₂ + <em>a</em>₃ = 2

<em>f</em> (2) = <em>a</em>₀ + 2<em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+ 4<em>a</em>₂ + 8<em>a</em>₃ = 1

<em>f</em> (3) = <em>a</em>₀ + 3<em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> </em>9<em>a</em>₂ + 27<em>x</em> ³ = 5

(b) Similarly, if

<em>f(x)</em> = <em>a</em>₀ + <em>a</em>₁ <em>x </em>+<em> a</em>₂ <em>x</em> ² + <em>a</em>₃ <em>x</em> ³

then

<em>f'(x)</em> = <em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> </em>2<em>a</em>₂ <em>x</em> + 3<em>a</em>₃ <em>x</em> ²

so that the given conditions yield the system,

<em>f</em> (1) = <em>a</em>₀ + <em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> a</em>₂ + <em>a</em>₃ = 0

<em>f'</em> (1) = <em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> </em>2<em>a</em>₂ + 3<em>a</em>₃ = 2

<em>f</em> (2) = <em>a</em>₀ + 2<em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> </em>4<em>a</em>₂ + 27<em>a</em>₃ = 3

<em>f'</em> (2) = <em>a</em>₁<em> </em>+<em> </em>4<em>a</em>₂ + 12<em>a</em>₃ = -1

Kesha threw her baton up in the air from the marching band platform during practice. The equation h(t) = −16t² + 54t + 40 gives
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

a) 40 feet

b) 54 ft/min

c) 4 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Kesha models the height ( h ) of the baton from the ground level but thrown from a platform of height hi.

- The function h ( t ) is modeled to follow a quadratic - parabolic path mathematically expressed as:

                           h ( t ) = −16t² + 54t + 40

Which gives the height of the baton from ground at time t mins.

- The initial point is of the height of the platform which is at a height of ( hi ) from the ground level.

- So the initial condition is expressed by time = 0 mins, the height of the baton h ( t ) would be:

                         h ( 0 ) = hi = -16*(0)^2 + 54*0 + 40

                         h ( 0 ) = hi = 0 + 0 + 40 = 40 feet

Answer: The height of the platform hi is 40 feet.

- The speed ( v ) during the parabolic path of the baton also varies with time t.

- The function of speed ( v ) with respect to time ( t ) can be determined by taking the derivative of displacement of baton from ground with respect to time t mins.

                        v ( t ) = dh / dt

                        v ( t )= d ( −16t² + 54t + 40 ) / dt

                        v ( t )= -2*(16)*t + 54

                        v ( t )= -32t + 54

- The velocity with which Kesha threw the baton is represented by tim t = 0 mins.

Hence,

                        v ( 0 ) = vi = -32*( 0 ) + 54

                        v ( 0 ) = vi = 54 ft / min

Answer: Kesha threw te baton with an initial speed of vo = 54 ft/min

- The baton reaches is maximum height h_max and comes down when all the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy. The baton starts to come down and cross the platform height hi = 40 feet and hits the ground.

- The height of the ball at ground is zero. Hence,

                     h ( t ) = 0

                     0 = −16t² + 54t + 40

                     0 = -8t^2 + 27t + 20

- Use the quadratic formula to solve the quadratic equation:

                     

                    t = \frac{27+/-\sqrt{27^2 - 4*8*(-20)} }{2*8}\\\\t = \frac{27+/-\sqrt{1369} }{16}\\\\t = \frac{27+/-37 }{16}\\\\t =  \frac{27 + 37}{16} \\\\t = 4

Answer: The time taken for the baton to hit the ground is t = 4 mins
