Accepted Answer

$$p = 6$$

Question 6

A semicircle of radius $$r = 23x - 5 is $$inscribed in a rectangle so that the diameter is the length of the rectangle. Express the area $$A of $$the rectangle as a function of $$x.$$

Accepted Answer

$$A(x) = (23x - 5)^2$

Question 7

A right triangle has one vertex at the origin, one at $$(x, y) on$$ $$y = 27x^3$, x$$ \u003e 0$$, and one on the positive y$-axis. Express the area A$ of the triangle as a function of x$.

Accepted Answer

$$A(x) = \frac{1}{2} x \cdot 27x^3$

Question 8

An island is 11 miles from the nearest point $$P on a $$straight shoreline. A town is 19 miles down the shore from $$P. If a $$person can row at 6 mph and walk at 3 mph, express the total travel time $$T(x) as a $$function of $$x$$, the distance from $$P to $$where the person lands.

Accepted Answer

$$T(x) = \frac{\sqrt{11^2$ + x^2$}}{6} + \frac{19 - x}{3}$$

Question 9

For the travel time function $$T(x) = \frac{\sqrt{11^2$ + x^2$}}{6} + \frac{19 - x}{3}$$, what is the domain?

Accepted Answer

$$0 \leq x \leq 19$$

Question 10

If the person lands the boat 8 miles from $$P$$, how long will it take to reach the town? (Round to the nearest tenth)

Accepted Answer

About 5.1 hours

Question 11
