Chapter 2.3, Problem 49E
SMALL BREWERIES U.S. craft-beer breweries (breweries that make fewer than 6 million barrels annually and are less than 25% owned by big breweries) have been doing booming business. The number of these small breweries from 2008 through 2012 can be modeled by using a quadratic function of the form
f(t) = at2 + bt + c
where a, b, and c are constants and t is measured in years, with t = 0 corresponding to 2008.
- a. Find a, b, and c if f(0) = 1547, f(2) = 1802, and f(4) = 2403.
- b. Use the model obtained in part (a) to estimate the number of craft-beer breweries in 2014, Assuming that the trend continued.

- Traffic Accidents The following table shows the cost C of traffic accidents. in cents per vehicle-mile, as a function of vehicular speed s, in miles per hour, for commercial vehicles driving at night on urban streets. Speed s 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 Cost C 1.3 0.4 0.1 0.3 0.9 2.2 5.8 The rate of vehicular involvement in traffic accidents per vehicle-mile can be modeled as a quadratic function of vehicular speed s, and the cost per vehicular involvement is roughly a linear function of s, so we expect that C the product of these two functions can be modeled as a cubic function of s. a. Use regression to find a cubic model for the data. Keep two decimal places for the regression parameters written in scientific notation. b. Calculate C(42) and explain what your answer means in practical terms. c. At what speed is the cost of traffic accidents for commercial vehicles driving at night on urban streets at a minimum? Consider speeds between 20 and 50 miles per hour.arrow_forwardA path of a toy rocket thrown upward from the ground at a rate of 208 ft/sec is modeled by the quadratic function of. h(x)=16t2+208t. When will the rocket reach its maximum height? What will be the maximum height?arrow_forwardPostal Rates U.S postal rates have steadily increased since 1932. Using data depicted in the table for the years 1932-2013, the cost in cents to mail a single letter can be modelled using a quadratic formula as follows: C(t)=0.007756t20.04258t+0.7585 where t is the number of years since 1932.

Find the predicted cost of mailing a letter in 1982 and 2002 and compare these estimates with the actual rates. b. Find the rate of change of the postage cost for the years 1982 and 2002 and interpret your results. c. Using the regression feature on a graphing calculator, find a cubic function that models these data, letting t=0 correspond to the year 1932. Then use your answer to find the rate of change of the postage cost for the years 1982 and 2002. d. Discuss whether the quadratic or cubic function best describes the data. Do the answers from part b or from part c best describe the rate that postages was going up in the years 1982 and 2002? e. Explore other functions that could be used to model the data, using the various regression features on a graphing calculator, and discuss to what extent any of them are useful descriptions of the data. f. g.arrow_forward
