Finding a Mathematical Model In Exercises \(41-50\), find a mathematical model for the verbal statement. For a constant temperature, the pressure \(P\) of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume \(V\) of the gas.
Find the difference quotient and simplify your Answer: $$f(x)=x^{2}-x+1, \quad \frac{f(2+h)-f(2)}{h}, \quad h \neq 0$$
Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. Every function is a relation.
Finding a Mathematical Model In Exercises \(41-50\), find a mathematical model for the verbal statement. The rate of growth \(R\) of a population is jointly proportional to the size \(S\) of the population and the difference between \(S\) and the maximum population size \(L\) that the environment can support.
The percents \(p\) of prescriptions filled with generic drugs in the United States from 2004 through 2010 (see figure) can be approximated by the model \(p(t)=\left\\{\begin{array}{ll}4.57 t+27.3, & 4 \leq t \leq 7 \\ 3.35 t+37.6, & 8 \leq t \leq 10\end{array}\right.\) where \(t\) represents the year, with \(t=4\) corresponding to \(2004 .\) Use this model to find the percent of prescriptions filled with generic drugs in each year from 2004 through \(2010 .\) (Source: National Association of Chain Drug Stores) (GRAPH CAN'T COPY)
