Find a mathematical model that represents the statement. (Determine the constant of proportionality.) \(v\) varies jointly as \(p\) and \(q\) and inversely as the square of \(s .(v=1.5 \text { when } p=4.1, q=6.3, \text { and } s=1.2 .)\)
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.
Given $$f(x)=x^{2}$$ is \(f\) the independent variable? Why or why not?
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?
Write a sentence using the variation terminology of this section to describe the formula. Surface area of a sphere: \(S=4 \pi r^{2}\)
