Construct a 3rd degree Bezier curve with 3 sections by interpolating the points: Q1 = (-1, 0), Q2 = (0, 1), Q3 = (1, 4),
Q4 = (2, 5)
a) Obtain the expression of the three sections so that the slope at the ends is zero. How many parameters are still free?
b) Calculate these parameters so that the intermediate section is a straight line.

The slope of the linear price-supply relation is m = 6.667 and the intercept is a = 53.333.

To find the slope, m, we can use the formula:

m = (Δy)/(Δx)

where Δy is the change in price and Δx is the change in supply. In this case, the change in price is 100 - 80 = 20 and the change in supply is 9 - 4 = 5. Therefore,

m = (20)/(5) = 4

To find the intercept, a, we can substitute the values of p and x from one of the given data points into the equation p(x) = a + mx. Let's use the data point (80, 4):

80 = a + 4m

We already know that m = 4, so we can substitute it in:

80 = a + 4(4)

Simplifying the equation:

80 = a + 16

Subtracting 16 from both sides:

a = 80 - 16 = 64

Therefore, a = 64.

In summary, the slope of the price-supply relation is m = 4 and the intercept is a = 64.

The intersection of the line l and the plane is the point (-1, 1, 1). To find the intersection of the line l and the plane x: 2x + 5y + z + 2 = 0, we need to solve the system of equations formed by the line equation and the plane equation.

The line equation is given as r = (4, -1, 4) + t(5, -2, 3), where t is a parameter. The plane equation is given as 2x + 5y + z + 2 = 0. To find the intersection, we substitute the coordinates of the line equation into the plane equation: 2(4 + 5t) + 5(-1 - 2t) + (4 + 3t) + 2 = 0

Simplifying the equation: 8 + 10t - 5 - 10t + 4 + 3t + 2 = 0, 9t + 9 = 0, 9t = -9, t = -1. Now we substitute the value of t back into the line equation to find the coordinates of the intersection point: r = (4, -1, 4) + (-1)(5, -2, 3), r = (4, -1, 4) + (-5, 2, -3), r = (-1, 1, 1), Therefore, the intersection of the line l and the plane is the point (-1, 1, 1).

The solution to the equation is y(x) = 0, y(x) = ± √(x² + 1) or y(x) = ± i√(x² + 1).

To solve the given differential equation, we can rewrite it as y(dy/dx) = x² + x²y². By separating the variables, we obtain ydy = (x² + x²y²)dx. Next, we integrate both sides of the equation.

∫ydy = ∫(x² + x²y²)dx

Integrating the left side gives (1/2)y², and integrating the right side involves using a substitution u = x² + 1 to get (1/2)u du. This results in:

(1/2)y² = (1/2)(x² + 1) + C

Simplifying further, we have y² = x² + 1 + 2C. Applying the initial condition y(1) = 0, we find 0 = 1 + 1 + 2C, which gives C = -1.

Hence, the solution to the differential equation with the initial condition is y(x) = ± √(x² + 1). Note that there is no real solution that satisfies y(1) = 0, but the equation has imaginary solutions y(x) = ± i√(x² + 1).

C(q) = 0.2q + 10/9 + 1000 1 31 P(q) = q² + 30q 2: there is no quantity where the maximum profit can be obtained given cost function and the profit function.

The revenue function R(q) can be calculated as follows: R(q) = pq Where, p is the price function

Rearranging P(q), we get: p = P(q)/q = q + 30Hence, the revenue function becomes: R(q) = (q + 30)q= q² + 30q

Average Cost function: C(q) = 0.2q + 10/9 + 1000 1 31Dividing both sides by q, we get: C(q)/q = 0.2 + 10/9q⁻¹ + 1000/ q

Now, as q approaches infinity, 10/9q⁻¹ and 1000/q approaches to zero. Hence, we can write: C(q)/q ≈ 0.2The above equation implies that the average cost is approximately constant at $0.2

Marginal cost (MC) can be obtained by taking the derivative of the cost function with respect to q:MC(q) = C'(q) = 0.2Marginal revenue (MR) can be obtained by taking the derivative of the revenue function with respect to q:

MR(q) = R'(q) = 2q + 30

Marginal profit (MP) can be obtained by taking the derivative of the profit function with respect to q:MP(q) = P'(q) = 2q + 30The profit function P(q) is already given: P(q) = q² + 30q

The maximum profit is obtained where marginal revenue equals marginal cost. So,2q + 30 = 0.2q⇒ 1.8q = -30⇒ q = -30/1.8≈ -16.67

Note that the quantity cannot be negative. Therefore, there is no quantity where the maximum profit can be obtained. Hence, there is no quantity that we have the maximum profit.

Given that Mr. Bailey can paint his family room in 12 hours and his son can paint the same family room in 10 hours. We have to find how long will it take for them to paint the family room if they work together.

Let's first find out the amount of work done by Mr. Bailey in 1 hour: Mr. Bailey can paint the family room in 12 hours, so in 1 hour, he will paint 1/12 of the family room. Similarly, let's find the amount of work done by his son in 1 hour: His son can paint the family room in 10 hours, so in 1 hour, he will paint 1/10 of the family room. When they work together, they can paint the room by combining their efforts,

So the total amount of work done in 1 hour will be: 1/12 + 1/10 = 11/60

So, by adding their work done in 1 hour, we can say that together they can paint 11/60 of the family room in 1 hour.

To paint the whole family room, we need to divide the total work by their combined rate of work done in 1 hour. So the equation becomes: 11/60 x t = 1 where 't' is the number of hours they will take to paint the family room.

Now let's solve for 't': 11t/60 = 1t

60/11t = 5.45 hours (rounded to two decimal places)

The rate of change of the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) with respect to the number of samples (n) can be found by taking the derivative of the AIC equation with respect to n.

As the number of samples (n) approaches infinity, the limit of AIC can be determined. Taking the limit of AIC as n approaches infinity, we have:

[tex]\lim_{{n\to\infty}} AIC = \lim_{{n\to\infty}} \left[n\log\left(\frac{{SS}}{{n}}\right) + 2k + C\right][/tex]

Since SS and k are constants, we can simplify the equation to:

[tex]\lim_{{n \to \infty}} AIC = \lim_{{n \to \infty}} (n \log\left(\frac{{SS}}{{n}}\right) + 2k + C)[/tex]

Applying the limit to each term separately, we get:

[tex]\lim_{{n \to \infty}} n\log\left(\frac{SS}{n}\right) = \infty \times (-\infty) = -\infty \quad \text{(as }\log\left(\frac{SS}{n}\right) \text{ approaches } -\infty)[/tex]

Therefore, the limit of AIC as the number of samples n approaches infinity is negative infinity (-∞).

In summary, the rate of change of AIC with respect to n is -SS/n, and the limit of AIC as n approaches infinity is negative infinity (-∞). This means that as the number of samples increases, the AIC decreases, indicating a better fit of the model, and it approaches negative infinity as the number of samples becomes infinitely large.

The correct option is A. To find the mean and median for each of the two samples and compare the results, we can calculate the measures of center for the systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements.

Systolic: 154, 118, 149, 120, 159, 143, 152, 132, 95, 123

To find the mean, we sum up all the values and divide by the number of observations:

Mean for systolic = (154 + 118 + 149 + 120 + 159 + 143 + 152 + 132 + 95 + 123) / 10

                 = 1395 / 10

                 = 139.5 mm Hg

To find the median, we arrange the values in ascending order and find the middle value:

Median for systolic = 132 mm Hg

Diastolic: 53, 51, 77, 87, 74, 57, 65, 78, 79, 80

Mean for diastolic = (53 + 51 + 77 + 87 + 74 + 57 + 65 + 78 + 79 + 80) / 10

                 = 721 / 10

                 = 72.1 mm Hg

Median for diastolic = 74 mm Hg

Comparing the results:The mean is lower for the diastolic pressure, but the median is lower for the systolic pressure.

Since the systolic and diastolic blood pressures measure different characteristics, a comparison of the measures of center doesn't make sense.  Because the data are matched, it would make more sense to investigate whether there is an association or correlation between the two blood pressures. Therefore, the correct option is A.

a) The optimal size of the production run is approximately 39, units (rounded to the nearest whole number).

b) The average holding cost per year is approximately $1,755.00 (rounded to two decimal places).

c) The average setup cost per year is approximately $24,300.00 (rounded to two decimal places).

d) The total cost per year, including the cost of the lights, is approximately $43,071.00 (rounded to two decimal places).

a) To find the optimal size of the production run, we can use the economic order quantity (EOQ) formula. The EOQ formula is given by:

EOQ = √[(2 * D * S) / H]

Where:

D = Annual demand = 11,700 units

S = Setup cost per production run = $81

H = Holding cost per unit per year = $0.15

Plugging in the values, we have:

EOQ = √[(2 * 11,700 * 81) / 0.15]

= √(189,540,000 / 0.15)

= √1,263,600,000

≈ 39,878.69

Since the optimal size should be rounded to the nearest whole number, the optimal size of the production run is approximately 39, units.

b) The average holding cost per year can be calculated by multiplying the average inventory level by the holding cost per unit per year. The average inventory level can be calculated as half of the production run size (EOQ/2). Therefore:

Average holding cost per year = (EOQ/2) * H

= (39,878.69/2) * 0.15

≈ 2,981.43 * 0.15

≈ $447.22

So, the average holding cost per year is approximately $447.22 (rounded to two decimal places).

c) The average setup cost per year can be calculated by dividing the total setup cost per year by the number of production runs per year. The number of production runs per year is given by:

Number of production runs per year = D / EOQ

= 11,700 / 39,878.69

≈ 0.2935

Total setup cost per year = S * Number of production runs per year

= 81 * 0.2935

≈ $23.70

Therefore, the average setup cost per year is approximately $23.70 (rounded to two decimal places).

d) The total cost per year, including the cost of the lights, can be calculated by summing the annual production cost, annual holding cost, and annual setup cost. The annual production cost is given by:

Annual production cost = D * Cost per light

= 11,700 * 1

= $11,700

Total cost per year = Annual production cost + Average holding cost per year + Average setup cost per year

= $11,700 + $447.22 + $23.70

≈ $12,170.92

Therefore, the total cost per year, including the cost of the lights, is approximately $12,170.92 (rounded to two decimal places).

We obtain the equation of the new graph, which is y = (3/25)x² - (9/5)x + 6.

Given that y = 3x² - 3x + 6 is the equation of the graph.

Suppose the graph of y = 3x² - 3x + 6 is stretched horizontally by a factor of 5, then we can obtain the new equation of the graph by replacing the variable x by x/5.

Hence the new equation is:

y = 3(x/5)² - 3(x/5) + 6=> y = 3x²/25 - 3x/5 + 6=> y = (3/25)x² - (9/5)x + 6.

Therefore, the equation of the new graph after stretching horizontally by a factor of 5 is y = (3/25)x² - (9/5)x + 6.

Stretching a graph horizontally or vertically refers to a transformation of the graph. If we stretch a graph horizontally by a factor a, then every point on the graph will move horizontally to the right by a factor of 1/a.

As a result, the graph will become wider or narrower, depending on whether a > 1 or a < 1.

In contrast, if we stretch a graph vertically by a factor b, then every point on the graph will move vertically up or down by a factor of b.

As a result, the graph will become taller or shorter, depending on whether b > 1 or b < 1.

In this problem, we are asked to stretch the graph of y = 3x² - 3x + 6 horizontally by a factor of 5.

This means that we need to replace x by x/5 in the equation of the graph.

When we do this, we obtain the equation of the new graph, which is y = (3/25)x² - (9/5)x + 6.

In order to determine if the mean weight of the 500 sample cars can be reasonably regarded as a sample from a large population of cars with a mean weight of 1500 Kg and a standard deviation of 130 Kg, we can perform a hypothesis test at a 5% level of significance.

The null hypothesis (H0) is that the sample mean weight is equal to the population mean weight, while the alternative hypothesis (H1) is that the sample mean weight is significantly different from the population mean weight. We can use a z-test to compare the sample mean to the population mean. By calculating the test statistic and comparing it to the critical value corresponding to a 5% significance level, we can determine if there is enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

If the calculated test statistic falls in the rejection region (beyond the critical value), we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the sample mean weight is significantly different from the population mean weight. Conversely, if the test statistic falls within the non-rejection region, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the sample mean weight is not significantly different from the population mean weight.

It is important to note that the specific calculations for the z-test and critical values depend on the sample size, population standard deviation, and significance level chosen.

Saddle point is (0, 0).

Given the function is,

f(x, y) = x³ + y³ + 21x² - 18y²

Partially differentiating the functions with respect to 'x' and 'y' we get,

fₓ = 3x² + 42x

fᵧ = 3y² - 26y

fₓₓ = 6x + 42

fᵧᵧ = 6y - 26

fₓᵧ = 0

Now,

fₓ = 0 gives

3x² + 42x = 0

x(x + 13) = 0

x= 0, -13

and fᵧ = 0 gives

3y² - 26y = 0

y (3y - 26) = 0

y = 0, 26/3

So, for (0, 0) both fₓ and fᵧ are zero.

So the discriminant is,

D = fₓₓ(0, 0) fᵧᵧ(0, 0) - [fₓᵧ(0, 0)]² = 42 * (-26) - 0 = - 1092.

Based on the provided information, three possible aggregate plans for SureStep Company are:

Level Plan: Produce a constant number of shoes each month to match the average demand over the four months.

Chase Plan with Overtime: Adjust the workforce level each month to match the demand exactly, utilizing overtime when necessary.

Chase Plan without Overtime: Adjust the workforce level each month to match the demand exactly, without using overtime.

To determine the best aggregate plan, we need to evaluate each plan based on the given criteria. Let's analyze each plan in detail:

Level Plan:

In this plan, SureStep Company produces a constant number of shoes each month to match the average demand over the four months. This means the product will be 4,750 pairs of shoes per month ([(3000+5000+2000+1000)/4]). By using a level plan, SureStep aims to have a stable production rate and maintain a steady workforce.

Chase Plan with Overtime:

In this plan, SureStep adjusts the workforce level each month to match the demand exactly. The company utilizes overtime when necessary to meet the demand. By hiring or firing workers, they can achieve the required workforce level. The number of workers required each month is calculated by dividing the demand for that month by the regular working hours per worker (160 hours) and rounding it up to the nearest whole number. If the demand exceeds the capacity even with regular working hours, overtime is used.

Chase Plan without Overtime:

Similar to the Chase Plan with Overtime, SureStep adjusts the workforce level each month to match the demand exactly. However, in this plan, overtime is not utilized. The number of workers required each month is calculated the same way as in the previous plan, but if the demand exceeds the capacity even with regular working hours, the excess demand is back-ordered.

To decide which plan to follow, we need to consider various factors such as costs, customer satisfaction, and overall company objectives. Here are some points to consider:

Level Plan: This plan provides a consistent production rate and helps in managing inventory levels efficiently. However, it may result in higher holding costs due to excess inventory. Also, it may lead to customer dissatisfaction if there are significant variations in demand during the four months.

Chase Plan with Overtime: This plan allows SureStep to meet the exact demand each month by adjusting the workforce level and utilizing overtime when necessary. It helps in minimizing holding costs and back-ordering costs. However, overtime labor costs and the cost of hiring/firing workers should be considered. It may also lead to potential employee fatigue due to overtime work.

Chase Plan without Overtime: This plan aims to meet the exact demand each month without utilizing overtime. It helps in minimizing overtime labor costs but may result in higher back-ordering costs and potential customer dissatisfaction due to delayed deliveries.

Based on the specific cost and customer satisfaction preferences of SureStep Company, the operations manager needs to evaluate the trade-offs and select the most suitable aggregate plan. The decision may involve analyzing the financial impact, evaluating customer service levels, and considering the company's overall strategy and goals.

From the previous part, we found that a = 9, but now we obtain a = 3. This implies that there is no value of a for which the vector field F has a potential function.

To determine the value of the constant a for which the vector field F is conservative, we need to check if the curl of F is equal to zero. The curl of F is given by the cross-partial derivatives of its components. So, we calculate the curl as follows:

[tex]∂F₁/∂y = 12xy² - 9y²∂F₂/∂x = 12x²y - ay²∂F₁/∂y - ∂F₂/∂x = (12xy² - 9y²) - (12x²y - ay²) = -12x²y + 12xy² + ay² - 9y²[/tex]

For the vector field to be conservative, the curl should be zero. Therefore, we equate the expression for the curl to zero:

[tex]-12x²y + 12xy² + ay² - 9y² = 0[/tex]

Simplifying the equation, we get:

[tex]-12x²y + 12xy² + (a - 9)y² = 0[/tex]

For this equation to hold true for all values of x and y, the coefficient of y² must be zero. So we have:

a - 9 = 0

a = 9

Therefore, the value of the constant a for which the vector field F is conservative is a = 9.

To determine the potential of F, we need to find a function φ(x, y) such that ∇φ = F, where ∇ represents the gradient operator. Since F is conservative, a potential function φ exists.

Taking the partial derivatives of a potential function φ(x, y), we have:

[tex]∂φ/∂x = 6x²y² - 3y³∂φ/∂y = 4x³y - axy² - 7[/tex]

To find φ(x, y), we integrate these partial derivatives with respect to their respective variables:

[tex]∫(6x²y² - 3y³) dx = 2x³y² - y³ + g(y)∫(4x³y - axy² - 7) dy = 2x³y² - (a/3)y³ - 7y + h(x)[/tex]

Where g(y) and h(x) are integration constants.

Comparing the two expressions for ∂φ/∂y, we can equate their coefficients:

-1 = -(a/3)

a = 3

In conclusion, if p is a prime in the rational integers and p ≡ 2 mod 3, then p is also a prime in the Eisenstein integers.

(a) To determine if 19 and 79 are prime in the Eisenstein integers, we need to check if they can be factored into primes. In the Eisenstein integers, the prime elements are those that cannot be further factored.

For 19:

To determine if 19 is prime in the Eisenstein integers, we can calculate its norm. The norm of a complex number in the Eisenstein integers is the square of its absolute value.

The absolute value of 19 in the Eisenstein integers is |19|:

= √(1919 - 191 + 1*1)

= √(361 - 19 + 1)

= √(343)

= 19

The norm of 19 is then the square of its absolute value, which is 19^2 = 361.

For 79:

We can follow a similar approach to check if 79 is prime in the Eisenstein integers.

The absolute value of 79 in the Eisenstein integers is |79|:

= √(7979 - 791 + 1*1)

= √(6241 - 79 + 1)

= √(6163)

(b) To show that if p is a prime in the rational integers and p ≡ 2 mod 3, then p is also a prime in the Eisenstein integers, we need to demonstrate that p cannot be factored into primes in the Eisenstein integers. Assume that p can be factored as p = αβ, where α and β are non-unit elements in the Eisenstein integers.

x is an element of A - C implies x is an element of B - C, so A - C ⊆ B - C.

(a) To show that if A ⊆ B, then P(A) ⊆ P(B):

Let X be an arbitrary element in P(A), i.e., X ⊆ A.

Since A ⊆ B, every element in A is also in B.

Therefore, if X ⊆ A, then X ⊆ B (since all elements of X are also in A and A is a subset of B).

Thus, X is an element of P(B), so P(A) ⊆ P(B).

(b) To show that if A ⊆ B, then A × C ⊆ B × C:

Let (x, y) be an arbitrary element in A × C.

This means x is in A and y is in C.

Since A ⊆ B, x is also in B.

Therefore, (x, y) is an element of B × C.

Thus, A × C ⊆ B × C.

(c) To show that if A ⊆ B, then A - C ⊆ B - C:

Let x be an arbitrary element in A - C.

This means x is in A and x is not in C.

Since A ⊆ B, x is also in B.

Since x is not in C, x is also not in B - C.

Therefore, x is in B, but x is not in C, so x is in B - C.

the equation of the circle whose diameter has endpoints (-5, -1) and (1, -3) is:

(x + 1)² + (y + 2)² = 40.

To find the equation of a circle given the endpoints of its diameter, we can use the midpoint formula and the distance formula.

Step 1: Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the diameter.

The midpoint of the diameter can be found using the midpoint formula:

Midpoint = ((x₁ + x₂) / 2, (y₁ + y₂) / 2)

Given endpoints: (-5, -1) and (1, -3)

Midpoint = ((-5 + 1) / 2, (-1 + (-3)) / 2)

Midpoint = (-2 / 2, (-4) / 2)

Midpoint = (-1, -2)

So, the coordinates of the midpoint are (-1, -2).

Step 2: Find the radius of the circle.

The radius can be found using the distance formula:

Distance = √((x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²)

Given endpoints: (-5, -1) and (1, -3)

Distance = √((1 - (-5))² + (-3 - (-1))²)

Distance = √((1 + 5)² + (-3 + 1)²)

Distance = √(6² + (-2)²)

Distance = √(36 + 4)

Distance = √40

Distance = 2√10

So, the radius of the circle is 2√10.

Step 3: Write the equation of the circle.

The equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r is:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Using the midpoint coordinates (-1, -2) as the center and the radius 2√10, the equation of the circle is:

(x - (-1))² + (y - (-2))² = (2√10)²

(x + 1)² + (y + 2)² = 40

a) The work needed to stretch the spring from 30 cm to 38 cm is 1.69 J

b) A force of 25 N will keep the spring stretched approximately 36.75 cm beyond its natural length.

(a) To find the work needed to stretch the spring from 30 cm to 38 cm, we can use the work formula:

W = (1/2)k(d2^² - d1²)

Given:

Initial displacement (d1) = 30 cm

Final displacement (d2) = 38 cm

We need to find the spring constant (k) to calculate the work done.

To find the spring constant, we can rearrange the work formula as follows:

W = (1/2)k(d2² - d1²)

2W = k(d2² - d1²)

k = (2W) / (d2² - d1²)

Given that the work W = 3 J, and using the values of d1 and d2, we can calculate k:

k = (2 * 3 J) / ((38 cm)² - (30 cm)²)

k = 6 J / (1444 cm² - 900 cm²)

k = 6 J / 544 cm²

Now, we can calculate the work needed to stretch the spring from 30 cm to 38 cm:

W' = (1/2)k(d2² - d1²)

W' = (1/2)(6 J / 544 cm²)((38 cm)² - (30 cm)²)

W' ≈ 1.69 J (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the work needed to stretch the spring from 30 cm to 38 cm is approximately 1.69 J.

(b) To find how far beyond its natural length a force of 25 N will keep the spring stretched, we can rearrange the formula for work to solve for the displacement:

W = (1/2)k(d2² - d1²)

2W = k(d2² - d1²)

d2^2 - d1² = (2W) / k

d2^2 = d1² + (2W) / k

d2 = √(d1² + (2W) / k)

Given:

Force (F) = 25 N

We can calculate the displacement:

d2 = √(d1² + (2F) / k)

d2 = √((28 cm)² + (2 * 25 N) / ((6 J) / (544 cm²)))

d2 ≈ 36.75 cm (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, a force of 25 N will keep the spring stretched approximately 36.75 cm beyond its natural length.

The partial derivative fs(x(s,t),y(s,t)) is equal to cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (4s^3t^3 - 12s^-4t), and ft(x(s,t),y(s,t)) is equal to cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (12s^4t^2 - 12s^-3).

To find fs(x(s,t),y(s,t)) and ft(x(s,t),y(s,t)), we need to differentiate f(x,y) = sin(x+y) with respect to s and t using the chain rule.

Let's start with fs(x(s,t),y(s,t)):

First, we substitute x(s,t) and y(s,t) into f(x,y):

f(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = sin(x+y) = sin(x(s,t) + y(s,t)).

Now, we differentiate f with respect to s, treating x(s,t) and y(s,t) as functions of s:

fs(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (d/ds(x(s,t)) + d/ds(y(s,t))).

Using the chain rule, we can find d/ds(x(s,t)) and d/ds(y(s,t)):

d/ds(x(s,t)) = d/ds(s4t3) = 4s3t3,

d/ds(y(s,t)) = d/ds(4s−3t) = 4(-3s^-4)t = -12s^-4t.

Substituting these results back into fs(x(s,t),y(s,t)), we have:

fs(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (4s3t3 - 12s^-4t).

Now, let's find ft(x(s,t),y(s,t)):

Again, we substitute x(s,t) and y(s,t) into f(x,y):

f(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = sin(x+y) = sin(x(s,t) + y(s,t)).

Now, we differentiate f with respect to t, treating x(s,t) and y(s,t) as functions of t:

ft(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (d/dt(x(s,t)) + d/dt(y(s,t))).

Using the chain rule, we can find d/dt(x(s,t)) and d/dt(y(s,t)):

d/dt(x(s,t)) = d/dt(s4t3) = 12s^4t^2,

d/dt(y(s,t)) = d/dt(4s−3t) = -3(4s^-3) = -12s^-3.

Substituting these results back into ft(x(s,t),y(s,t)), we have:

ft(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (12s^4t^2 - 12s^-3).

Therefore, fs(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (4s3t3 - 12s^-4t) and ft(x(s,t),y(s,t)) = cos(x(s,t) + y(s,t)) * (12s^4t^2 - 12s^-3).

The simplified expression for f(x+h) - f(x)/h is 4x + 2h - 3, obtained by substituting values into the function and performing the necessary calculations.

To compute and simplify f(x+h) - f(x)/h, we need to substitute the values into the given function f(x) = 2x² - 3x + 1 and perform the necessary calculations.

Let's start with f(x+h):

f(x+h) = 2(x+h)² - 3(x+h) + 1

= 2(x² + 2xh + h²) - 3x - 3h + 1

= 2x² + 4xh + 2h² - 3x - 3h + 1

Now, let's subtract f(x) from f(x+h):

f(x+h) - f(x) = (2x² + 4xh + 2h² - 3x - 3h + 1) - (2x² - 3x + 1)

= 2x² + 4xh + 2h² - 3x - 3h + 1 - 2x² + 3x - 1

= 4xh + 2h² - 3h

Finally, divide the above expression by h:

(f(x+h) - f(x))/h = (4xh + 2h² - 3h) / h

(a) To find the values of C(25), C(50), C(100), C(200), C(300), and C(400) for the given function C(x) = x + 475, we substitute the respective values of x into the function.

The main answers are:

C(25) = 500

C(50) = 525

To calculate the values of C(100), C(200), C(300), and C(400), we substitute the corresponding values of x into the function C(x) = x + 475:

C(100) = 100 + 475 = 575

C(200) = 200 + 475 = 675

C(300) = 300 + 475 = 775

C(400) = 400 + 475 = 875

Given the function C(x) = x + 475, where x represents the number of thousand deadweight tons, and y represents the cost per ton in thousands of dollars. The function represents a linear relationship between the number of deadweight tons and the cost per ton.

To find the cost for a specific number of deadweight tons, we substitute that value into the function and perform the calculation.

For example, to find C(25), we substitute x = 25 into the function:

C(25) = 25 + 475 = 500

Similarly, for C(50):

C(50) = 50 + 475 = 525

We can continue this process for C(100), C(200), C(300), and C(400) by substituting the respective values of x into the function and performing the calculations.

Therefore, we find:

C(100) = 100 + 475 = 575

C(200) = 200 + 475 = 675

C(300) = 300 + 475 = 775

C(400) = 400 + 475 = 875

These results represent the approximate costs, in thousands of dollars, for building an oil tanker of 25, 50, 100, 200, 300, and 400 thousand deadweight tons, respectively.

It's important to note that these calculations are based on the given linear approximation of the cost per ton. The actual cost may vary depending on other factors,

such as market conditions, labor costs, and materials prices. The given function provides a simplified estimate of the cost based on a linear relationship.
