As stated in the Syllabus:
You
are encouraged to start working on any assignment as soon as we have
covered some non-trivial part of it in class (i.e., even before it is
formally assigned on MyMathLab).
Here is how to know when to stop working on an assignment whose material has not yet been fully covered:
When you see problems that stop matching any of the examples that we have covered - stop.

stated right before Ex. 2.
Word Problem 2: Reconsider Ex. 1b with r=0.04 (i.e., half of the rate in Ex. 1).

r=0.08?
Now, use the General Formula derived in WP 1 and *compute*
an answer to the above question. Feel free to ask about this result in
class.

Note for # 78:
Find a very similar integral done in class; then follow the lines of
that Example.
Note for # 88: 1)
Recall that the total change of any quantity equals the integral of the
rate of change of that quantity over a given time period.
2) You must have already done a more general case of this integral in
this HW;
all that remains to be done is to substitute the bounds.

Properties of logarithm are found in Theorem 1 of Sec. 1.6.
Sec. 6.3: ## 17, 39, 10, 43, 25, 53, 57, 59, 63.
Hint for #
10: If
unsure, first use a search engine to get an answer and then try to
remember
which integration method gives answers of that form.
Note for ## 53, 57: Remember that ln(x^2) is not at all the same as (ln(x))^2.

Answer for # 12: no
Answer for # 14: no (plot the PDF if you are unsure of this answer)
Note for # 25: "The first two conditions of the PDF" referred to in the problem statement

For the "prediction" part, think of your intuitive definition of
"average".
You may also consult the Geometric interpretation of mean on p. 8-9.
Hint for # 14:
Variance and Standard deviation characterize the same property of a
random variable (Standard deviation is just the square root of
variance).
So, what property is that? Find the answer on pp. 8-3,4,
Hint for # 49: We computed a similar integral near the end of Lec. 7.
Note for # 35: This problem will become important when we study Sec. 11.4.

Note for # 47: You have already done a similar problem in this assignment.
Note for # 53: See the Note for # 49 in the previous HW.
Note for ## 37-39: The concept of quartiles is somewhat similar to the concept of median,
and quartiles are used in many applications. To clarify:
the probability that X is between min(x) and x1
is 0.25;
the probability that X is between x1 and x2 is
0.25;
the probability that X is between x2 and x3 is
0.25;
the probability that X is between x3 and max(x)
is 0.25.

Sec. 11.4: ## 75, 77, 78, 81, 82, and the reworded # 85 below.
Reworded # 85:
The instructor grades a test on a curve while assuming that the grades are normally distributed.
The instructor further determines that the average grade for the test is 70 and the standard deviation
is 8. The instructor wants to set grade brackets in such a way that (approximately) 10% of the grades
and A's, 20% are B's, 40% are C's, 20% are D's, and 10% are F's. What should these grade brackets
be? Round the answers to the nearest integer.
(I think I have made it somewhat clearer than in the book, but feel free to read
the book's version as well. Numbers in both versions are the same.)
Note for most of problems: Review Ex. 4 in the Notes.
Answer for #
78:
About 1.2%
Answer for #
82:
About 9.2%
Hint
for #
85:
In all previous problems, you have first found z and then,
G(z)
from the Table in Appendix C. Here, you will work backwards.
That is:
1) Determine the probability that you want. For example, for the
threshold between C and either B or D, you will take 0.2. (Why?)
And for the threshold between B and A you will take 0.4. (Why?)
2) Find the closest decimal for that probability in the Table; e.g.,
for P = 0.2, it appears to be 0.1985. Then determine which z
it corresponds to.
3) Using the equation (s - mu)/sigma = z, find the
score s.

Answer for # 52: dP/dt = -k*P, where k is some positive constant (why is it positive?)
Note for # 53: Think
whether your proportionality constant should be positive or negative.
For that, recall that the pizza is hotter than the room and decide
whether
the solution to your DE should increase or decrease. Review the bullet
point
right before topic 3 on p. 10-5.
Note for ## 47,49: You must review the graphs of e^{ax} for a>0 and a<0 and know them cold!

them online.

Notes for #
65:
1) Set t=0 in 2010.
2) The rate that the last question of the problem asks for is,
of course, given by the r.h.s. of your differential equation.
Note for ## 71 -- 82 and 68: All these problems are on the Limited growth/decay model.
So review the corresponding topics in the Lecture.
Hint for #
71:
What temperature should you include in the r.h.s. of your DE:
500F or 800F, so that it would be the counterpart of the 72F
in the DE of Example 6?
Notes for #
72:
1) Similarly, here, what temperature should be the counterpart
of the 72F from Example 6?
2) Once you decide on the above question, set up the model
taking into account the fact that the bar is now cooling down
(as opposed to heating).
Notes for #
68:
1) Set t=0 at the "two years ago"
mark.
2) Disregard the question about the rate and its interpretation,
found towards the end of the problem.

Word Problems:
1. Mortgage repayment problems
(A) Repeat steps of the solution of Ex. 7 in Lecture 11 for the case where the APR = r = 4.5%
(i.e., 25% below that in Ex 7). Find the total amount you will pay to the bank.
Denote M[r] the total amount you pay to the bank with the APR = r.
Compare (M[4.5%] - P0)
with (M[6%] - P0), where P0 is the principal (same as in
Ex. 7).
Is the former 25% smaller than the latter? Or more than that? Or less than that?
(B) Repeat the assignment of part (A) for r = 7.5% (i.e., 25% higher than that in Ex. 7).
Answer the same questions as in part (A).
2. Pollution remediation
(A) Repeat # 69 assuming that the incoming water is fresh (has no pollutants). How many pounds of

Answer for #
26:
e^{3x} + C e^{2x}, C=1
Notes for ## 69, 71, 72 and WP2: 1) The capacity of the tank (1000 gal) is not used in these problems.
2) Recall that the phrase "rate (in pounds per gallon)" at the end
of problem 69 is a misnomer: The problem is asking about
concentration, not rate, of pullutants.
3) It may look like asking you to do two word problems, WP2,
has significantly increased the amount of work that you need to do.
Well, it has not. You should realize it soon after you begin doing
WP2(A).

are expressed not in terms of prices, but in terms of the demands of bicycles
(e.g., x=12 means that 12 ten-speed bicycles have been "demanded," i.e., sold).

increasing the price of brand A by from $10/lb to $11/lb while keeping
the price
of brand B fixed at $10/lb will increase the revenue by $160;

increasing the price of brand B by from $10/lb to $11/lb while keeping the price
of brand A fixed at $10/lb will increase the revenue by $280.
Answer for # 88: R_x(10,5) = 60 =>
an increase in the demand of 10-speed bikes from 10 to 11 per day while
the demand of 3-speed bikes stays at 5 per day will increase the
revenue by $60;
P_x(10,5) = -20 =>
the above action will decrease the profit by $20.
Answer for # 96: Find it in a class Example.
Answer for # 98: L_w = k*v^2 =>
increasing the weight of the car by 1% will increase the skid length by
1%;
L_v = 2k*w*v =>
increasing the speed of the car by 1% will increase the skid length by 2%.
Answer for # 40: 0
Answer for # 42: 18

be done via MML.)
Sec. 7.3: ## 41, 44(B), Matched Problem (p. 459) for Example 4 (p. 458), # 47.
Word problems:
1. In # 87 of Sec. 7.2 (see HW 26), find the prices of brands A and B that maximize the revenue.
2. In a laboratory test, antibiotics A and B are used together to eliminate certain disease-causing bacteria.
The rate of elimination of the targeted bacteria f(x,y) = xy - 2x^2 - y^2 + 110x + 60y, where
x and y are amounts of antibiotics A and B in milligrams. Find the amounts of the two medicines
that will maximize the antibiotic effect (i.e., maximize the rate f(x,y) of bacteria elimination).
3. Subjects in a psychology experiment who practice for their Calculus exam for x hours and then
rest for y hours are found to achive an exam score of f(x,y) = 2xy - 4x^2 - y^2 + 22x - 4y + 65
(on average). Find the numbers of hours of practice and rest that would maximize the expected
exam score.
General note for all problems:
You must perform the 2nd-derivative test to verify that the solution you found is indeed a maximum
or a minimum, as required in each problem.
Answer for # 44(B): p = 40, q = 50, max P = $1200
Answer for the Matched problem for Example 4 is found on p. 461
Answer for WP1: p = 850/11 = 77.27, q = 1050/11 = 95.45
Answer for WP2: x = 40, y = 50
Answer for WP3: 3 hours of practice and 1 hour of rest will give a maximum score of 96 points
