1 Tom Robbins MATH 0- Summer 00 Homework Set 0 due 5//0 at 6:00 AM This first set (set 0) is designed to acquaint you with using WeBWorK. Your score on this set will not be counted toward your final grade You may need to give 4 or 5 significant digits for some (floating point) numerical answers in order to have them accepted by the computer..(4 pts) This problem demonstrates how you enter numerical answers into WeBWorK. Evaluate the expression : In the case above you need to enter a number, since we re testing whether you can multiply out these numbers. (You can use a calculator if you want.) For most problems, you will be able to get WeBWorK to do some of the work for you. For example Calculate (-4) * (7): The asterisk is what most computers use to denote multiplication and you can use this with WeBWorK. But WeBWorK will also allow use to use a space to denote multiplication. You can either 4 7 or -8 or even 4 7. All will work. Try them. Now try calculating the sine of 45 degrees ( that s sine of pi over 4 in radians and numerically sin(pi/4) equals or, more precisely, ). You can enter this as sin(pi/4), as sin(3.4596/4), as /sqrt(), as **(-.5), etc. This is because WeBWorK knows about functions like sin and sqrt (square root). (Note: exponents can be indicated by either a caret or **). Try it. sin π 4 Note that WeBWorK ALWAYS uses radian mode for trig functions. You can also use juxtaposition to denote multiplication. E.g. enter sin 3π. You can enter this as *sin(3*pi/) or more simply as sin(3pi/). Try it: or even sinx. If you remember your trig identities, sin(x) = - cos(x+pi/) and WeBWorK will accept this or any other function equal to sin(x), e.g. sin(x) +sin(x)**+cos(x)**- We said you should enter sin(x) even though WeBWorK will also except sin x or even sinx because you are less likely to make a mistake. Try entering sin(x) without the parentheses and you may be surprised at what you get. Use the Preview button to see what you get. WeBWorK will evaluate functions (such as sin) before doing anything else, so sin x means first apply sin which gives sin() and then mutiple by x. Try it. Now enter the function cost. Note this is a function of t and not x. Try entering cos x and see what happens. 3.(4 pts) This problem will help you learn the rules of precedence, i.e. the order in which mathematical operations are preformed. You can use parentheses (and also square brackets [ ] and/or curly braces ) if you want to change the normal way operations work. So first let us review the normal way operations are performed. The rules are simple. Exponentiation is always done before multiplication and division and multiplication and division are always done before addition and subtraction. (Mathematically we say exponentiation takes precedence over multiplication and division, etc.). For example what is +*3? Sometimes you need to use ( ) s to make your meaning clear. E.g. /+3 is 3.5, but /(+3) is. Why? Try entering both and use the Preview button below to see the difference. In addition to ( ) s, you can also use [ ] s and s. You can always try to enter answers and let WeBWorK do the calculating. WeBWorK will tell you if the problem requires a strict numerical answer. The way we use WeBWorK in this class there is no penalty for getting an answer wrong. What counts is that you get the answer right eventually (before the due date). For complicated answers, you should use the Preview button to check for syntax errors and also to check that the answer you enter is really what you think it is..(4 pts) This problem demonstrates how you enter function answers into WeBWorK. First enter the function sin x. When entering the function, you should enter sin(x), but WeBWorK will also except sin x and what is 3? Now sometime you want to force things to be done in a different way. This is what parentheses are used for. The rule is: whatever is enclosed in parentheses is done before anything else (and things in the inner most parentheses are done first). For example how do you enter sin 3 tan 4? Hint: this is a good place to use [ ] s and also to use the Preview button. Here are some more examples: (+3)9 =36, (*3)** = 6** = 36, 3**(*) = 3**4 = 8, (+3)** = 5** = 5, 3**(+) = 3**4 = 8 (Here we have used ** to denote exponentiation and you can also use this instead of a caret if you want). Try entering some of these and use the Preview button to see the result.

2 The correct result for this answer blank is 36, but by using the Preview button, you can enter whatever you want and use WeBWorK as a hand calculator. There is one other thing to be careful of. Multiplication and division have the same precedence and there are no universal rules as to which should be done first. For example, what does /3*4 mean? (Note that / is the division symbol, which is usually written as a line with two dots, but unfortunately, this line with two dots symbol is not on computer keyboards. Don t think of / as the horizontal line in a fraction. Ask yourself what // should mean.) WeBWorK and most other computers read things from left to right, i.e. /3*4 means (/3)*4 or 8/3, IT DOES NOT MEAN /. Some computers may do operations from right to left. If you want /(3*4) = /, you have to use parentheses. The same thing happens with addition and subtraction. -3+ = 0 but -(3+) = -4. This is one case where using parentheses even if they are not needed might be a good idea, e.g. write (/3)*4 even though you could write /3*4. This is also a case where previewing your answer can save you a lot a grief since you will be able to see what you entered. Enter /3*4 and use the Preview button to see what you get. 4.(4 pts) This problem demonstrates a WeBWorK True/False question. Enter a T or an F in each answer space below to indicate whether the corresponding statement is true or false. You must get all of the answers correct to receive credit Notice that if one of your answers is wrong then, in this problem, WeBWorK will tell you which parts are wrong and which parts are right. This is the behavior for most problems, but for true/false or multiple choice questions WeBWorK will usually only tell you whether or not all the answers are correct. It won t tell you which ones are wrong. The idea is encourage you think rather than to just try guessing. In every case all of the answers must be correct before you get credit for the problem. 5.(4 pts) This problem demonstrates a WeBWorK Matching question. Match the statements defined below with the letters labeling their equivalent expressions. You must get all of the answers correct to receive credit.. The distance from x to 3 is less than or equal to. x is greater than or equal to 3 3. x is greater than 3 4. x is any real number 5. The distance from x to 3 is more than A. x 3 B. x 3 C. x 3 D. 3 x E. x For this problem WeBWorK only tells you that all your answers are correct or that at least one is wrong. This makes the problem harder and is usually used only for T/F and matching questions. The idea is encourage you think rather than to just try guessing. If you are having trouble reading the mathematics on the screen, this means that you are using text mode. If you are using Netscape or MSIE then you can get an easier to read version of the equations by returning to the problem list page (use the button at the top of this page) and choosing formatted-text or typeset instead of text. Sometimes there is a 5-0 second delay in viewing a problem in typeset mode the first time. 6.(4 pts) This problem demonstrates a WeBWorK problem involving graphics. The simplest functions are the linear (or affine) functions the functions whose graphs are a straight line. They are important because many functions (the so-called differentiable functions) locally look like straight lines. ( locally means that if we zoom in and look at the function at very powerful magnification it will look like a straight line.) Enter the letter of the graph of the function which corresponds to each statement.. The graph of the line is increasing. The graph of the line is decreasing 3. The graph of the line is constant 4. The graph of the line is not the graph of a function A B C D This is another problem where you aren t told if some of your answers are right. (With matching questions and true false questions, this is the standard behavior otherwise it is too easy to guess your way to the answer without learning anything.) If you are having a hard time seeing the picture clearly, click on the picture. It will expand to a larger picture on its own page so that you can inspect it more closely. Some problems display a link to a web page where you can get additional information or a hint:hint 7.(4 pts) This problem demonstrates a WeBWorK question that requires you to enter a number or a fraction. Evaluate the expression Give you answer in decimal notation correct to three decimal places or give your answer as a fraction. Now that you have finished you can use the Prob. List button at the top of the page to return to the problem list page. You ll see that the problems you have done have been labeled as correct or incorrect, so you can go back and do problems

3 you skipped or couldn t get right the first time. Once you have done a problem correctly it is ALWAYS listed as correct even if you go back and do it incorrectly later. This means you can use WeBWorK to review course material without any danger of changing your grade. Prepared by the WeBWorK group, Dept. of Mathematics, University of Rochester, c UR 3

If xsin x f x x find f x. f f f 8.(4 pts) Let Then x = x = x = x = f x tan x 9.(4 pts) This problem is a bit on the difficult side, but it s OK to have a challenge among routine problems. Here are a couple of hints: Think of motion as composed of a horizontal and a vertical component, and remember that velocity is the derivative of location. So if you know velocity and want to know location you have to do the opposite of differentiation: find a function of which velocity is the derivative. Suppose again you drop a rock into a deep cylindrical well that is located on the equator. Assume gravity is g, the radius of the well is r, and the radius of the earth is R. Again, for simplicity, assume that we can ignore air drag. Due to the earth s rotation, points on the wall of the well move in circular arcs. However, for the purpose of this exercise suppose that each point on the wall is moving east along a straight line at a speed that is

11 proportional to the distance of the point from the center of earth. (This is a reasonable assumption for the kind of time frame we anticipate.) Also suppose that gravity is constant throughout the earth. (In reality it isn t, in fact it s 0 at the center since an object there gets pulled equally in all directions.) Suppose that the earth takes T seconds for one rotation. Finally, suppose you release the rock at the center of the circle that forms the cross section of the well. At what depth d and what time t will the rock strike the east wall of the well? Your answer should of course be two formulas that depend on g, r, R, and T. t and d Once you have that formula compute d and t for the particular values R miles T seconds g 3 ft/sec and r ft For these values you obtain t and d seconds feet.

At time t 0 you drive off North at a (constant) speed v and your friend drives West at a (constant)

13 speed w. You badly want to know: how fast is the distance between you and your friend increasing at time t? Enter here the derivative of the distance from your friend with respect to t: Being scientifically minded you ask yourself how does the speed of separation change with time. In other words, what is the second derivative of the distance between you and your friend? Suppose that after your friend takes off (at time t 0) you linger for an hour to contemplate the spot on which he or she was standing. After that hour you drive off too (to the North). How fast is the distance between you and your friend increasing at time t (greater than one hour)? Again, you ask what is the second derivative of your separation: If you wish me your comments on how lingering makes things harder, mathematically speaking.

Estimate the amount of aluminum that could be saved if the cans where designed with the ratio d h that you computed in problem set 6 (while having the same vlume as the standard cans). Amount of aluminum saved, as a percentage of the amount used to make the optimal cans, equals. What would be the diameter and height (in inches) of the new and improved cans?. 4.(4 pts) A can manufacturer located in Oklahoma City produces aluminum cans for one major cola company. The distribution area for these cans includes about 3% of the US population located in New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana and southwestern Missouri. Inside the plant, there are eight stamping presses that manufacture can lids. Each press stamps two lids per stroke and on average runs at 500 strokes per minute. The machines run 4 hours a day for an average of 300 days per year. (The only time that the machines stop running is for two two week maintenance breaks, 0 holidays, and an additional days due to miscellaneous break downs.) If the total volume of aluminum for one can is V c cubic meters and the cost of processed aluminum is dollars per cubic meter, how many dollars would be saved by changing the design of the can? Savings equals dollars. 5.(4 pts) In problems 3 and 4 we define a can to be optimal if it has the least surface area for a given volume. In this problem we assume the real issue in can manufacturing is cost, and the industry has figured out which shape minimizes the cost of making the cans. (Of course there are other issues, like how the can fits into one s hand and whatever marketing appeal a given shape might have. Also consider that once the country is saturated with vending machines it would be very expensive to make substantial changes in the shape of the can.) The familiar oz aluminum can is made of two parts, a shell and a lid. Assume that the total manufacturing cost for the lid and the shell is C 6 5 cents.

19 The manufacturing cost of the lid consists of a fixed cost of M L 4 4 cents per lid, and an additional cost that is proportional to the area of the lid. Thus the total cost is C L M L κ L π d 4 cents per lid, for some constant κ L. Similarly, the manufacturing cost of the shell consists of a fixed cost of M S 85 cents per shell, and an additional cost that is proportional to the surface area of the shell. Thus the total cost is C S M S κ S πhd π 4 d cents per shell, for some constant κ S. Assuming that the total manufacturing cost of the can is minimized for a diameter of.75 inches and a height of 5.0 inches, what are the variable costs involved with the manufacture of the cans? κ L κ S cents per square inch, cents per square inch.
