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?
A balloon carrying a transmitter ascends vertically from a point 3000 feet from the receiving station. (a) Draw a diagram that gives a visual representation of the problem. Let \(h\) represent the height of the balloon and let \(d\) represent the distance between the balloon and the receiving station. (b) Write the height of the balloon as a function of \(d\) What is the domain of the function?
Use a graphing utility to graph the function. Be sure to choose an appropriate viewing window. $$g(x)=|x|-5$$
Sketch the graph of the function. $$g(x)=[[x-3]]$$
Find the difference quotient and simplify your Answer: $$g(x)=\frac{1}{x^{2}}, \quad \frac{g(x)-g(3)}{x-3}, \quad x \neq 3$$
