Drag measurements were taken for a 5 cm diameter sphere in water at 20 °C to predict the drag force of a 1 m diameter balloon rising in air with standard temperature and pressure. Given kinematic viscosity of water (v) = 1.0 X 10-6 m2/s and kinematic viscosity of air (v) = 1.46 X 10-5 m2/s.

Suppose that a decision-maker’s preferences over the set A={a, b, c} are represented by the payoff function u for which u(a) = 0, u(b) = 1, and u(c) = 4.
(a) Are they also represented by the function v for which v(a) =−1, v(b) = 0, and v(c) = 2?
(b) How about the function w for which w(a) =w(b) = 0 and w(c) = 8?
(c) Give another example of a function f:A→R that represents the decision-maker’s preferences.
(d) Is there a function that represents the decision-maker’s preferences and assigns negative numbers to all elements of A?

2. The Dean of Students at the University of Waterloo wanted to
estimate the proportion of students who are willing to report
cheating by fellow students. So, her staff surveyed the 172
students currently enrolled in the introduction to biology class.
The students were asked, “Imagine that you witness two students
cheating on a quiz. Would you tell the professor?” 19 of the
surveyed students responded “yes.” (11 points total)
a. Using these data, calculate the 90% confidence interval for the
proportion of all students at the University of Waterloo that would
report cheating. (4 points)
b. Interpret the confidence interval from part “a” in a sentence.
Interpret in terms of percentages, rather than proportions. (4
points)
c. Is it appropriate to use these data to estimate the proportion
of all students at the university that would report cheating? Why
or why not? (3 points)

There are 10 CS students, 12 CPRE students and 8 SE students, to form a committee.
(a) How many different committees of size 3 can you pick if you need one representative from each program?
(b) How many different committees of size 2 can you pick if you cannot pick both representatives from the same program?
(c) In how many ways can you pick a president, a secretary, and a treasurer from the group of students if they cannot all be CS students?

the voltage for the electrochemical cell shown below was .450 V.
Pt(s)|Cd(NO3)2 (aq)(.0100M) || Cl- (aq) | AgCl (s)| Ag(s)
The standard reduction potentials are
Cd2++2e---> Cd (s) Eo= -.402 V
AgCl+e---> Ag(s) + Cl- Eo=.222V
Calcuate the concentration of Cl- if the cell potential was determined to be 0.605 V

An electrochemical cell is composed of pure copper and pure lead electrodes immersed in solutions of their respective divalent ions. For a 0.7 M concentration of Cu2+, the lead electrode is oxidized yielding a cell potential of 0.520 V. Calculate the concentration of Pb2+ ions if the temperature is 25˚C. The standard potentials for Cu and Pb are +0.340 V and -0.126 V.

A new machine is purchased by a business for $200,000. For tax reasons, we assume the machine will lose $40,000 in value each year. If t is the number of years since the machine was purchased, and if V (t) represents the value of the machine after t years, write an equation in the form V (t)=mt+b for the value of the machine. Determine the domain and range for the function V (t).
