Chapter 1: Q13E (page 9)

Sketch a rough graph of the outdoor temperature as a function of time during a typical spring day.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The required graph is as follows:

Step by step solution

01

Describe the given information

It is required to sketch the graph of the outdoor temperature versus the time of the day during a typical spring day.

02

Draw the graph of the outdoor temperature as a function of time during a typical spring day

The graph for the temperature against time during a spring day is sinusoidal. This means that it is periodic or it will repeat its behaviour after a certain time. It is known that the temperature is a regular cycle, therefore, it will be modelled by either sine or cosine function. The other factors of the graphs can be global warming status, geographic location, weather, etc.

On spring days the temperature will decrease at midnight, and it will be increasing till the afternoon. After that, it will again decrease.

Draw the required graph as follows.

Determine whether\({\bf{f}}\)is even, odd, or neither. If you have a graphing calculator, use it to check your answer visually.

64.\({\bf{f}}\left( {\bf{x}} \right){\bf{ = 1 + 3}}{{\bf{x}}^{\bf{3}}}{\bf{ - }}{{\bf{x}}^{\bf{5}}}\)

For the function \(f\) whose graph is shown, arrange the following numbers in increasing order:

\(0\) \(1\) \({f^'}\left( 2 \right)\) \({f^'}\left( 3 \right)\) \({f^'}\left( 5 \right)\) \({f^{''}}\left( 5 \right)\)

Some scientists believe that the average surface temperature of the world has been rising steadily. They have modeled the temperature by the linear function\({\bf{T = 0}}{\bf{.02t + 8}}{\bf{.5}}\), where\({\bf{T}}\)is the temperature in\({}^{\bf{o}}{\bf{C}}\)and\({\bf{t}}\)represents years since 1900.

(a) What do the slope and\({\bf{T}}\)-intercept represent?

(b) Use the equation to predict the average global surface temperature in 2100.

Express the surface area of a cube as a function of its volume.

Find

(a) \({\bf{f + g}}\)

(b) \({\bf{f}} - {\bf{g}}\)

(c) \({\bf{fg}}\)

(d) \({\bf{f}}/{\bf{g}}\)

and state their domains.
