Suppose a rope is just long enough to cover the equator of the Earth. About how much longer would the rope need to be so that it could be suspended seven feet above the entire equator?
Suppose a colony of bacteria has a continuous growth rate of \(30 \%\) per hour. If the colony contains 8000 cells now, how many did it contain five hours ago?
Suppose a colony of bacteria has tripled in five hours. What is the continuous growth rate of this colony of bacteria?
The functions cosh and \(\sinh\) are defined by $$ \cosh x=\frac{e^{x}+e^{-x}}{2} \text { and } \sinh x=\frac{e^{x}-e^{-x}}{2} $$ for every real number \(x .\) For reasons that do not concern us here, these functions are called the hyperbolic cosine and hyperbolic sine; they are useful in engineering. Show that $$ (\cosh x+\sinh x)^{t}=\cosh (t x)+\sinh (t x) $$ for all real numbers \(x\) and \(t\).
Suppose \(r\) is a small positive number. Estimate the slope of the line containing the points \(\left(e^{2}, 6\right)\) and \(\left(e^{2+r}, 6+r\right)\)
