1 A Answers Important Note about Precision of Answers: In many of te problems in tis book you are required to read information from a grap and to calculate wit tat information. You sould take reasonable care to read te graps as accurately as you can (a small straigtedge is elpful), but even skilled and careful people make sligtly different readings of te same grap. Tat is simply one of te drawbacks of grapical information. Wen answers are given to grapical problems, te answers sould be viewed as te best approximations we could make, and tey usually include te word approximately or te symbol meaning approximately equal to. Your answers sould be close to te given answers, but you sould not be concerned if tey differ a little. (Yes tose are vague terms, but it is all we can say wen dealing wit grapical information.) Section approx. 1, 0, (a) min 0 min 8 min 6 min cooling; 5 min cooling (c) 5.5 min cooling; 10 min cooling (d) Wen t 6 min. 5. We estimate tat te area is approximately (very approximately) 9 cm Metod 1: Measure te diameter of te can, fill it alf full of water, measure te eigt of te water and calculate te volume. Submerge te bulb, measure te eigt of te water again, and calculate te new volume. Te volume of te bulb is te difference of te two calculated volumes. Metod 2: Fill te can wit water and weig it. Submerge te bulb (displacing a volume of water equal to te volume of te bulb), remove te bulb, and weig te can again. By subtracting, find te weigt of te displaced water and use te fact tat te density of water is 1 gram per 1 cubic centimeter to determine te volume of te bulb.

Substituting x 2a + 8(1 a) 8 6a and y 3a + 11(1 a) 11 8a into te equation for te line, we get: 6(11 8a) 8(8 6a) 66 48a a 2 for all a, so te point wit x 2a + 8(1 a) and y 3a + 11(1 a) is on te line troug P and
