Chapter 6: Problem 6 Algebra and Trigonometry 8
In applications, the symbols used for the independent and dependent variables are often based on common usage. So, rather than using y = f(x) to represent a function, an applied problem might use C = C(q) to represent the cost C of manufacturing q units of a good since, in economics, q is used for output. Because of this, the inverse notation f-1 used in a pure mathematics problem is not used when finding inverses of applied problems. Rathel; the inverse of a function such as C = C( q) will be q = q( C). So C = C( q) is a function that represents the cost C as a function of the output q, while q = q( C) is a jil.l1ction that represents the output q as a function of the cost C. Problems 87-90 illustrate this idea. Vehicle Stopping Distance Taking into account reaction time, the distance d (in feet) that a car requires to come to a complete stop while traveling r miles per hour is given by the function d(r) = 6.97r - 90.39 (a) Express the speed r at which the car is traveling as a function of the distance d required to come to a complete stop. (b) Verify that r = red) is the inverse of d = d(r ) by showing that r(d(r) ) = r and d(r(d)) = d. (c) Predict the speed that a car was traveling if the distance required to stop was 300 feet.

Historical Problem Pierre de Fermat (1601-1665) conjectured that the function f(x) = 2 (2') + 1 for x = 1, 2, 3, ... , would always have a value equal to a prime number. But Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) showed that this formula fails for x = 5. Use a calculator to determine the prime numbers produced by f for x = 1, 2, 3, 4. Then show that f(5 ) = 641 X 6,700,417, which is not prime.

Diversity Index Shannon's diversity index is a measure of the diversity of a population. The diversity index is given by the formula H = -(PI log PI + P210g P2 + ... + Pl1log PH) where PI is the proportion of the population that is species 1, P2 is the proportion of the population that is species 2, and so on. (a) According to the U.S. Census B ureau, the distribution of race in the United States in 2000 was as follows: Race American Indian or Native Alaskan Asian Black or African American Hispanic Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander White Source: u.s. Census Bureau Proportion 0.014 0.041 0.128 0.124 0.003 0.690 Compute the diversity index of the United States in 2000. (b) The largest value of the diversity index is given by H max = logeS), where S is the number of categories of race. Compute H max' H (c) The evenness ratio is given by Ef{ = --, where Hmax 0:5 EN :5 1. If Ef{ = 1, there is complete evenness. Compute the evenness ratio for the United States.

Healing of Wounds The normal healing of wounds can be modeled by an exponential function. If Ao represents the original area of the wound and if A equals the area of the wound, then the formula A = Aoe - 0.35 11 describes the area of a wound after n days following an injury when no infection is present to retard the healing. Suppose that a wound initially had an area of 100 square millimeters. (a) If healing is taking place, after how many days will the wound be one-half its original size? (b) How long before the wound is 10% of its original size?

Alcohol and Driving The concentration of alcohol in a person's bloodstream is measurable. Suppose that the relative risk R of having an accident while driving a car can be modeled by the equation where x is the percent of concentration of alcohol in the bloodstream and k is a constant. (a) Suppose that a concentration of alcohol in the bloodstream of 0.03 percent results in a relative risk of an accident of 1.4. Find the constant k in the equation. (b) Using this value of k, what is the relative risk if the concentration is 0.17 percent? (c) Using the same value of k, what concentration of alcohol corresponds to a relative risk of 100? (d) If the law asserts that anyone with a relative risk of having an accident of 5 or more should not have driving privileges, at what concentration of alcohol in the bloodstream should a driver be arrested and charged with a DUI? (e) Compare this situation with that of Example 10. If you were a lawmaker, which situation would you support? Give your reasons.

Critical Thinking In buying a new car, one consideration might be how well the price of the car holds up over time. Different makes of cars have different depreciation rates. One way to compute a depreciation rate for a car is given here. Suppose that the current prices of a certain Mercedes automobile are as follows: Age in Years New 2 3 4 5 $38,000 $36,600 $32,400 $28,750 $25,400 $21 ,200 Use the formula New = Old(eRt) to find R, the annual depreciation rate, for a specific time t. When might be the best time to trade in the car? Consult the NADA ("blue") book and compare two like models that you are interested in. Which has the better depreciation rate?

Then $1000 worth of purchasing power now will have only $970 worth of purchasing power in one year because 3% of the original $1000 (0.03 X 1000 = 30) has been eroded due to inflation.
