Data Analysis: Light Intensity A light probe is located \(x\) centimeters from a light source, and the intensity \(y\) (in microwatts per square centimeter) of the light is measured. The results are shown as ordered pairs \((x, y)\) (Spreadsheet at LarsonPrecalculus,com) $$\begin{array}{lll} (30,0.1881) & (34,0.1543) & (38,0.1172) \\ (42,0.0998) & (46,0.0775) & (50,0.0645) \end{array}$$ A model for the data is \(y=262.76 / x^{2.12}\) A. Use a graphing utility to plot the data points and the model in the same viewing window. B. Use the model to approximate the light intensity 25 centimeters from the light source.
Use a graphing utility to graph the function. Be sure to choose an appropriate viewing window. $$g(x)=-2 x^{2}$$
Use Hooke's Law for springs, which states that the distance a spring is stretched (or compressed) varies directly as the force on the spring. A force of 220 newtons stretches a spring 0.12 meter. What force is required to stretch the spring 0.16 meter?
Consider \(f(x)=\sqrt{x-1}\) and \(g(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-1}}\) Why are the domains of \(f\) and \(g\) different?
Sketch the graph of the function. $$f(x)=\left\\{\begin{array}{ll}1-(x-1)^{2}, & x \leq 2 \\\\\sqrt{x-2}, & x>2\end{array}\right.$$
