Algebra
1)
a) Given,
Q=f(t)= 300∗(0.75)
t
40
a)
To write the formula for Q= Ae−kt , let g(t) = Ae−kt
0.75-1=-0.25
Which is 25% decreasing
We need to find the points, calculate f(0), f(1)
f(0)=300*0.75=225; (0,300)
f(1)=300*(0.75)
1
40 =297.85; (1,297.85)
g(t)= = Ae−kt
g(1)= = Ae−k =297.85
here A=300(from Q=f(t))
so, 297.85=300=e−k
=e−k =297.85
300
k=7.192* 10−3
b)
finding t half
given Q=300
half of Q=150
plugging this into Q= Ae−kt ,
150=300e−7,192∗10−3 t
Solving for t,
T=96.377minutes

c)
here,
red curve is the graph, violet line is the halving time.
2)
Starting from (1,0), move along the unit circle until the angle θ is formed with x axis.
cosθ is the x coordinate and sinθ is the y coordinate.
cos(90+θ) lies in the second coordinate. Therefore the x coordinate is negative and y coordinate is
positive.
Cos(90+θ)=cos90cosθ-sin90sinθ
=0-sinθ
=-sinθ

So cos(90+θ)=-sinθ
That is, cos ¿+θ)=-sinθ
3)
Amplitude is the half range.
That is A= 1
2 (35− (−5 ) )=20
Mean value is the average of the two extremes.
That is,
T m= 35−5
2 =15
Time period for one complete cycle t p= 12+12=24
So the period = 2 π
t p
= π
12
So putting it all together,
H=T m + Asin (tp∗t− π
2 )
That is , H=15+20 sin ( π
12 t − π
2 )
a)
b)
given,
H= A +Bsin (Ct + D )

Comparing with H=15+ 20 sin ( π
12 t− π
2 )
A=15
B=20
C= π
12, D=- π

4)given f(x)=2 x3 −7 x+2
a)
f(0) is found by putting x=0
that is f(0)=2
f(1)=-3
f(2)=4
f(-1)=-2+7+2=7
f(-2)=-16+14+2=0
b)
f(x)=2 x3 −7 x+2=0
x=-2 is a solution.
So x+2=0
Dividing f(x) by x+2
That is, 2 x3−7 x +2
( x+ 2 ) =2 x2 −4 x +1
Putting 2 x2 −4 x +1=0
x=−b ± √ b2−4 ac
2 a
There fore ,x =1 ± 1
√2
c)

d)
x<-2,
x <1+ 1
√2 ,
x<1− 1
√2
the region shaded is the required answer.
5)
Given,
R ( q )=ln ( 1+1000 q2 )
Marginal revenue is fond by differentiating with respect to q.

That is, R ' ( q )= 2000 q
1+ 1000 q2
Marginal revenue when q= 10 is,
R ' ( 10 )= 20000
1+ 100000 =0.199998⩪ 0.2
That is R’(x) is the slope of the curve which is=0.2
6)
Given, f(x)=x3+2
a)
Graph of y=f(x) is given by,
The interval given is [-1,2]
So the coordinates are (-1,1); (2,10)
b) the lines are x=-1 and x=2.
Subdivision, n =3
Therefore ∆x= b−a
n = 2− ( −1 )
3 =1
So the intervals are, [-1,0]; [0,1]; [1,2]
Area by upper sum, A=∑
i=1
3
f ( xi−1 ) ∆ x=f ( x0 ) ∆ x+ f ( x1 ) ∆ x+ f (x2)∆ x
Here, f ( x0 ) =−13 +2=1; f ( x1 ) =0+2=2 ; f ( x2 ) =1+2=3
So the area=1+2+3=6 sq units
c)
the area can be improved by increasing the number of sub division.

That is value of n can be increased.
7)
Given, h ( x )=50+ 45 sin πx
50
a)h’(x) is found by differentiating h(x) with respect to x.
that is ,h’(x)= 0+45 cos ( πx
50 )∗π
50
=
45 cos ( πx
50 )∗π
50
b)
h’(40) is found by substituting x=40
that is,
h’(40)=45 cos ( π∗40
50 )∗π
50
=45 cos ( 4 π
5 )∗π
50
=-2.2874
This means that slope at the point 40 is -2.2874
c)
maximum is found by putting derivative=0
that is h’(x)=0
implies, 45 cos ( πx
50 )∗π
50 =0
=cos ( πx
50 )=0
= πx
50 = π
2 , 3 π
2
x=25,75
that is maximum is at x=25
that is maximum=h(25)

=50+45 sin π∗25
50
=95m
The minimum is at x=75
That is h(75)=50-45
=5m
d)
given, h’’(x)=-45 ( π
50 )2
sin ( πx
50 )
rate of change is greatest at h’(x)=0
that is, at x=25
that is upper limit =25
lower limit is 0,
distance is calculated by integrating h’(x)
that is,
¿∫
0
25
45 π
50 cos ( πx
50 )
=9∗5 sin πx
50 ,0,25
=9*5sin π

=45m
Hence the answer.
