Chapter 1: Q21E (page 7)

You put some ice cube in a glass, fill the glass with cold water, and then let the glass sit on a table. Describe how the temperature of the water changes as time passes. Then sketch a rough graph of the temperature of the water as a function of the elapsed time.

Short Answer

Expert verified

As the ice starts melting, the temperature of the water becomes equal to the freezing point. But when the ice has completely melt down, its temperature slowly increases to room temperature

Step by step solution

01

Describe the change in temperature of the water

As the ice keeps melting, the temperature of water becomes equal to the freezing point. But when the ice has melted, the temperature of water slowly increases to room temperature.

02

Sketch the graph of temperature

The graph below represents the temperature change of water with the time elapsed.

Determine whether f is even, odd, or neither. You may wish to use a graphing calculator or computer to check your answer visually.

85. \(f\left( x \right) = {\bf{1}} + {\bf{3}}{x^{\bf{2}}} - {x^{\bf{4}}}\)

Determine whether f is even, odd, or neither. You may wish to use a graphing calculator or computer to check your answer visually.

83. \(f\left( x \right) = \frac{x}{{x + {\bf{1}}}}\)

The graph of a f and \(g\) is given.

(a) State the values of \(f\left( { - {\bf{4}}} \right)\)and \(g\left( {\bf{3}} \right)\).

(b) Which is larger, \(f\left( { - {\bf{3}}} \right)\)and \(g\left( { - {\bf{3}}} \right)\)?

(c) For what values of x is \(f\left( x \right) = g\left( x \right)\)?

(d) On what interval(s) is \(f\left( x \right) \le g\left( x \right)\)?

(e) State the solution of the equation \(f\left( x \right) = - {\bf{1}}\).

(f) On what interval(s) is g decreasing?

(g) State the domain and range of f.

(h) State the domain and range of g.

Find the domain and range and sketch the graph of the function \(h\left( x \right) = \sqrt {4 - {x^2}} \).

In a certain state the maximum speed permitted on freeways in 65 mi/h and the minimum speed is 40 mi/h. The fine for violating these limits is $15 for every mile per hour above the maximum speed or below the minimum speed. Express the amount of the fine F as a function of the driving speed \(x\) and graph \(F\left( x \right)\) for \(0 \le x \le 100\).
