A bug is crawling at a velocity of f(t) = 1/1 + t meters per hour, where 0 ≤ t ≤ 1 and t is in hours.

a) Find both the left-endpoint and right-endpoint approximations for the area under the graph f(t) during this hour. Use 10-minute increments.

b) Explain what your results to Part a) mean about this bug.

Separation of Variables: Let v(t) be the velocity, in knots per hour, of a vessel at time t, t = 0. After the second engine is turned on, its velocity satisfies the differential equation ??/??=3?+22, with initial condition v (0) = 2. First use separation of variables to find an expression for v in terms of t. Secondly, f the vessel cruising speed is 25 knots per hour, how long will the vessel take to reach this speed?

The effectiveness of a new bug repellent is tested on 16 subjects for a 10 hour period. (Assume normally distributed population.) Based on the number and location of the bug bites, the percentage of surface area exposed protected from bites was calculated for each of the subjects. The results were as follows: xtopbar =94, s=9 The new repellent is considered effective if it provides a percent repellency of at least 89. Using α=0.01, construct a hypothesis test with null hypothesis...

Ted Williams hits a baseball with an initial velocity of 120 miles per hour (176 ft/s) at an angle θ = 35o to the horizontal. The ball is struck 3 feet above home plate. You watch as the ball goes over the outfield wall and lands in the bleachers. After you congratulate Ted on his hit, he tells you: “You think that was something! If there was no air resistance I could have hit that ball clear out of the...
