You have entered a model rocket contest with your friend, Tiffany. You have been working on a pressurized rocket filled with nitrous oxide. Tiffany has determined the minimum atmospheric pressure at which the rocket fuel is stable. Based not hat value, and the equations given below, your task is to determine the optimum launch angle and initial velocity to maximize flight time. The goal is to re-use your rocket capsule, so you really want to avoid a fuel explosion.
The atmospheric pressure varies with elevation according to the equation: P(h)= 14.7e−h/10. where p is the pressure in psi and h, is an elevation in miles above sea levels. The height (in feet) of a rocket launched at an angle α degrees with the horizontal and an initial velocity, vo in feet/second, t seconds after launch is given by the equation h(t)=-16t^2+vo*t*sin(α).
1) If Tiffany has determined that the minimum safe pressure is 11 pounds per square inch, at what altitude will the rocket explode? Report your result in feet. Round to the nearest foot.
2) If the angle of launch is33o, with an initial velocity of 1,648 what is the minimum atmospheric pressure exerted on the rocket during its flight? Report your answer to one decimal place. Under these conditions, will the rocket explode during its flight?
3) If the angle of launch is32o, with an initial velocity of 1,908 what is the minimum atmospheric pressure exerted on the rocket during its flight? Report your answer to one decimal place. Under these conditions, will the rocket explode during its flight?
4) Tiffany has revisited her calculation and has now concluded that the minimum safe pressure for the fuel is 9 psi. What is the maximum height your rocket can achieve without exploding in flight? Report your answer in feet to the nearest foot.
5) Tiffany has (once again) checked her calculations, and you have verified with her that the safe pressure for your fuel is 9 and the fuel capsule holds enough fuel to produce an initial velocity of 2,169 feet per second. What launch angle will you use so that your rocket achieves the maximum safe altitude? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree.

Euler’s Method Let’s get our hands dirty and actually use Euler’s method to estimate the value of y(2) where y is the solution to the initial value problem
y′=y−2x y(0) = 1
Recall that Euler’s method says: Approximate values for the solution of the initial value problem
y′=F(x, y),y(x0) =y0 with step size h, at xn=xn−1+h, are
yn=yn−1+hF(xn−1, yn−1)
Fill in the table for steps of size h= 0.2.

Graph the portion of the approximate solution curve you found above. It should look like a lot of line segments. The first segment has been given on the grid below:
(c) Suppose f(x) is an exact solution to the initial value problem above. Describe, with justification, the behavior off(x) as x→∞. Hint: Graphing a slope field may be helpful for this.

1. Let g(s) = √ s. Find a simple function f so that f(g(s)) = 0. Hint: see Methods of computing square roots on Wikipedia. Use Newton’s method to estimate √ 2. Start with 3 different (and interesting) initial values of your choice and report the number of iterations it takes to obtain an accuracy of at least 4 digits.

Big Chill, Inc. sells portable dehumidifier units at the current price of $183. Unit variable costs are $75. Fixed costs, made up primarily of salaries, rent, insurance and advertising, are $4,018,000. Calculate breakeven sales for Big Chill, Inc. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
A manufacturer is considering a switch from manufacturers’ representatives to an internal sales force. The following cost estimates are available. Manufacturers’ reps are paid 8.7% commission and incur $610,000 in fixed costs, while an internal sales force has fixed costs projected at $2,150,000 and would receive 2.7% commission. Assume that sales revenue is double the breakeven volume or the point at which the manufacturer would be indifference between reps and an internal sales force. At this volume, how much would the manufacturer save, assuming the company had switched to an internal sales force? Report your answer in dollars.

a)Determine whether the equation is separable (S), linear (L), autonomous (A), or non-linear (N). (An equation could be more than one of these types.)
