OTHER APPLICATION Attitude Change Social psychologist have found that as the discrepancy between the view of a speaker and those of an audience increase to a point but decrease when the discrepancy becomes too large particular if the communicator is viewed by the audience as having low credibility, Suppose that the degree of change can be approximated by the function D(x)=x4+8x3+80x2 Where x is the discrepancy between the view of the speaker and those of the audience as measure by score on a question-naira. Find the amount of discrepancy the speaker should aim for to maximize the attitude change in the audience. Source: Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
LIFE SCIENCE APPLICATIONS APPLY IT Splenic Artery Resistance Blood flow to the fetal spleen is of research interest because several diseases are associated with increased resistance in the splenic artery the artery that goes to the spleen. Researchers have found that the index of splenic artery resistance in the fetus can be described by the function y=0.057x0.001x2, where x is the number of weeks of gestation. Source: American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology. a. At how many weeks is the splenic artery resistance a maximum? b. What is the maximum splenic artery resistance? c. At how many weeks is the splenic artery resistance equal to 0, according to this formula? Is your answer reasonable for this function? Explain.
Poultry Farming Researchers at Iowa State University and the University of Arkansas have developed a piecewise function that can be used to estimate the body weight in grams of a male broiler during the first 56 days of life according to W(t)={48+3.64t+0.6363t2+0.00963t3if1t28,1004+65.8tif28t56, Where t is the age of the chicken in days. Source: Poultry Science. a. Determine the weight of a male broiler that is 25 days old . b. Is W(t) a continuous function? c. Use a graphing calculator to graph W(t) on [1,56] by [0,3000].Comment on the accuracy of the graph. d. Comment on why researchers use two different types of functions to estimate the weight of a chicken at various ages.
Medical Literature It has been observed that there has been an increase in proportion of medical research papers that use the word novel in the title or abstract, and that this proportion can be accurately modeled by the function p(t)=0.001131e0.1268t, where t is the number of years since 1970. Source: Nature. a. Find p(40). b. If the phenomenon continues, estimate the year in which every medical article will contain the word novel in its title or abstract. c. Estimate the rate of increase in the proportion of medical papers using this word in the year 2010. d. Explain some factors that may be contributing to researchers using this word.
How do you find the value of a function?
The height h of a projectile is a function of the time t it is in die air. The height in feet for t seconds is given by the function h(t)=-16t2+96t . What is the domain of die function? What does the domain mean in the context of die problem?
