Problem #1 :

Using separation of variables and the formalism demonstrated in class, find the general solution to the Helmholtz equation (also known as the time independent wave equation) :

∇^2 F + k^2 F = 0

Assume that k is a real number. For clarification, the general solution is the solution in the case where boundary conditions are not specified.

Problem #2 :

Express the following functions as an infinite Fourier sine series using sin(nπx/a)

a)f(x) = x

b)f(x) = e^x

c)f(x) = cos(x)

  • Currently, 4,600 pounds of steel and 5,000 machine hours are available.
  • To meet customer demands, exactly 950 total products must be produced.
  • Customers also demand that at least 400 units of Product W be produced.

Formulate an LP that can be used to maximize sales revenue for the manufacturer.

LP Formula

Let Pi be the number of product type i produced by the manufacturer, where i = X, Y, X, and W.

  1. How is the ratio of outputs to inputs, y x, different from the slope ratio?
  2. When a linear graph passes through the origin, why is the ratio of outputs to inputs, y x the same as the slope?
  3. How can you tell from a graph whether a relationship is inverse variation or direct variation? Does this change when we look at direct square variation versus inverse square variation? Why or why not?
  4. What is a horizontal asymptote? Do direct or inverse variation graphs have asymptotes? Why?
  5. Explain how to tell whether a table varies directly, inversely, or neither. Include what to watch for to determine if a function varies directly or inversely with the square.

The population of mosquitoes in a certain area increases at a rate proportional to the current population, and in the absence of other factors, the population doubles each week. There are 800,000 mosquitoes in the area initially, and predators (birds, bats, and so forth) eat 60,000 mosquitoes/day. Determine the population of mosquitoes in the area at any time. (Note that the variable t represents days.)

How to determine whether the following statements about big-O notation are true or false?

(a) Let f(n) = √ n log n − 4, then f(n) = O(n^ 2)

(b) Let f(n) = 4 n + 2 log^ 2 (n), then f(n) = O(log^ 2 (n))

(c) Let f(n) = 5 √ n + 2, then f(n) = Ω(log^ 4 (n))

(d) Let f(n) = 5 n^ 2 + 5 n log n + 4, then f(n) = O(n^3 )

(e) Let f(n) = 2 log^2 (n) + 5√ n + 7, then f(n) = Θ(√ n)

2) A drug lord wishes to optimize the area in which he will grow his coca plants. The area concerned has a river on one side and must be closed in with fencing on the other three sides. He has 500ft of fencing. Determine the dimensions of the field that will maximize the area. Show that this is indeed a maximum.


3) The drug lord is now in jail. He requests that there be a window with a semicircular top in his cell that lets in the most amount of light possible. If there are 20m of framing material available, what are the dimensions of the window? Again, show that this is indeed a maximum.
