Find a mathematical model for the verbal statement. The gravitational attraction \(F\) between two objects of masses \(m_{1}\) and \(m_{2}\) is proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance \(r\) between the objects.
Determine whether the variation model is of the form \(y=k x\) or \(y=k / x,\) and find \(k .\) Then write \(a\) model that relates \(y\) and \(x\). $$ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline x & 5 & 10 & 15 & 20 & 25 \\ \hline y & 1 & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{1}{3} & \frac{1}{4} & \frac{1}{5} \\ \hline \end{array} $$
Determine whether the function has an inverse function. If it does, find the inverse function. $$ g(x)=\frac{x}{8} $$
(a) find the inverse function of \(f\), (b) graph both \(f\) and \(f^{-1}\) on the same set of coordinate axes, (c) describe the relationship between the graphs of \(f\) and \(f^{-1}\), and (d) state the domain and range of \(f\) and \(f^{-1}\). $$ f(x)=x^{3 / 5} $$
The total numbers of people (in thousands) in the U.S. civilian labor force from 1992 through 2007 are given by the following ordered pairs. $$\begin{array}{ll} (1992,128,105) & (2000,142,583) \\ (1993,129,200) & (2001,143,734) \\ (1994,131,056) & (2002,144,863) \\ (1995,132,304) & (2003,146,510) \\ (1996,133,943) & (2004,147,401) \\ (1997,136,297) & (2005,149,320) \\ (1998,137,673) & (2006,151,428) \\ (1999,139,368) & (2007,153,124) \end{array}$$ A linear model that approximates the data is \(y=1695.9 t+124,320,\) where \(y\) represents the number of employees (in thousands) and \(t=2\) represents 1992 . Plot the actual data and the model on the same set of coordinate axes. How closely does the model represent the data? (Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)
