The force F (in tons) of water against the face of a dam is estimated by the function
Chapter 1, Problem 80(choose chapter or problem)
Why you should learn it (p. 97) The force F (in tons) of water against the face of a dam is estimated by the function
\(F(y)=149.76 \sqrt{10} y^{5 / 2}\)
where y is the depth of the water (in feet).
(a) Complete the table. What can you conclude?
(b) Use a graphing utility to graph the function. Describe your viewing window.
(c) Use the table to approximate the depth at which the force against the dam is 1,000,000 tons. Verify your answer graphically. How could you find a better estimate?
