Chapter 4, Problem 68(choose chapter or problem)
The Guinness Book of World Records, 2004 states that Dominic OBrien (England) memorized on a single sighting a random sequence of 54 separate packs of cards all shuffled together (2808 cards in total) at Simpsons-In-The-Strand, London, England, on May 1, 2002. He memorized the cards in 11 hours 42 minutes, and then recited them in exact sequence in a time of 3 hours 30 minutes. With only a 0.5% margin of error allowed (no more than 14 errors), he broke the record with just 8 errors. If we let x represent the time (hours) it takes to memorize the cards and y represent the number of cards memorized, then a rational function that models this event is given by According to this model, how many cards could be memorized in an hour? What is the greatest number of cards that can be memorized?
