Accepted Answer

$$0.15$$

Question 7

Brent is riding his bicycle north away from an intersection at a rate of $$14$$ miles per hour. Sally is driving her car toward the intersection from the west at a rate of $$36$$ miles per hour. If Brent is $$4$$ miles from the intersection and Sally is $$3$$ miles from the intersection, what is the rate at which the distance between them is changing?

Accepted Answer

$$22$$ miles per hour

Question 8

Given $$f(x) = (1 - \sin x)^3$, use the local linear approximation at x$$ = \frac{\pi}{2}$$ to estimate f(0.5$$)$$. Is the estimate an overestimate or underestimate?

Accepted Answer

$$f(x)$$ has a local minimum at $$x = a$$

Question 16

A tank is being filled with water at a rate of $$5$$ liters per minute, but is leaking at a rate proportional to the amount of water present, $$L(t) = kW(t). $$Which differential equation models the amount of water $$W(t) in $$the tank?

Accepted Answer

$$\frac{dW}{dt} = 5 - kW$$
