3. A company estimates that the marginal cost (in dollars per item) of producing x items is 1.92 0.002x. If the
cos of producing one item is $562, find the cost of producing 100 items.
Marginal cost = 1.92 0.002x = C 0 (x), so C(x) = 1.92x 0.001x2 + K.
But C(1) = 562, thus K = 560.081.
Therefore, C(x) = 1.92x 0.001x2 + 560.08 and C(100) = 742.081

4. A car is traveling at 100km/h when the driver sees an accident 80 meters ahead and slams on the brakes.
What constant deceleration is required to stop the car in time to avoid a pileup? The acceleration/deccelartion
is the second derivative of the position (the first derivative being the velocity)
Let the acceleration be a(t) = k km/h2 . We have v(0) = 100 km/h and we can take the initial position
s(0) = 0. We want the time tf for which v(t) = 0 to satisfy s(t) < 0.08km. In general, v 0 (t) = a(t) = k,
so v(t) = kt + C, where C = v(0) = 100. Now, s0 (t) = v(t) = kt + 100, so s(t) = 12 kt2 + 100t + D, where
D = s(0) = 0. Thus, s(t) = 21 kt2 + 100t. Since v(tf ) = 0, we have ktf + 100 = 0.
Therefore, s(tf ) = 12 k( 100
)2 + 100( 100
) = 5000
, but s(t) < 0.08 implies that k < 5000
. So the constant
k
k
k
0.08
of decceleration k must be less than 62500 km/h2 .
5. The llinear denity of a rod of lengty 1 meter is given by p(x) = 1x , in grams per centimeter, where x is
measured in centimeters from one end of the rod. Find the mass of the rod.
Let the mass, measured from one end, be m(x), then m(0) = 0 and p = dm
= x1/2 , thus m(x) = 2x1/2 + C
dx

and m(0) = C = 0. Therefore m(x) = 2 x, so the mass of the 100-centimeter rod is 20g.
