64. Let G(t) be the GDP in billions of dollars


where t is years and t = 0 represents
1995. Since the GDP is growing at a

(b) The particle is stationary when
v(t ) = 2t 2 = 0 which is at time t = 1 .
70. (a) s(t ) = t 3 9t 2 + 15t + 25 for 0 t 6
v(t ) = 3t 2 18t + 15 = 3(t 1)(t 5)
a (t ) = 6t 18 = 6(t 3)

(b) The particle is stationary when


v(t ) = 3(t 1)(t 5) = 0 which is at
times
t = 1 and t = 5 .
72. (a) Since the initial velocity is V0 = 0
feet per second, the initial height is
H 0 = 144 feet and g = 32 feet per
second per second, the height of the
stone at time t is
1
H (t ) = gt 2 + V0t + H 0
2
= 16t 2 + 144.
The stone hits the ground when

H (t ) = 16t 2 + 144 = 0 , that is when

t 2 = 9 or after t = 3 seconds.

(b) The velocity at time t is given by


H (t ) = 32t . When the stone hits the
ground, its velocity is H (3) = 96
feet per second.
74. Let g be the acceleration due to gravity for
the planet our spy is on. Since he throws
the rock from ground level, H 0 = 0 , and
the equation describing the rocks height
is
1
H (t ) = gt 2 + V0t
2
When t = 5 the height is 0 so
25
g + 5V0 = 0
2
The rock reaches its maximum height
5
halfway through its trip at t = .
2
25

Therefore H = g + V0 = 37.5 .

Solving these two equations in V0 and g
gives g = 12 feet per second per second.
The spy concludes he is on Mars.
76. Let (x, y) be a point on the curve where
the tangent line goes through (0, 0). Then
the slope of the tangent line is equal to
y0 y
= . The slope is also given by
x0 x
y
f ( x) = 2 x 4 . Thus = 2 x 4 or
x
2
y = 2x 4x .
Since (x, y) is a point on the curve, we
must have y = x 2 4 x + 25 . Setting the
two expressions for y equal to each other
gives
x 2 4 x + 25 = 2 x 2 4 x
x 2 = 25
x = 5
If x = 5 , then y = 70 , the slope is
14 and the tangent line is y = 14 x .
If x = 5 , then y = 30 , the slope is 6 and
the tangent line is y = 6 x .

(b) After 1 day the population is changing at P(1) = 7,110.105 or about 7,110 bacteria per day.
After 10 days the population is changing at P(10) = 9, 280.5 or about 9,281 bacteria per day.
(c) The initial bacterial population is P (0) = 230,000 bacteria. The population has doubled when

Using the solving features of a graphing calculator yields t 23.3 days as the approximate time

Note that P is not on the graph of the curve (its coordinates do not satisfy the equation of the
curve).
y = 8 x
Let xt be the abscissa of the point of tangency. The slope is m = 8 xt
The point ( xt , yt ) lies on the curve through (2, 0) so its slope is
yt 0

xt 2
The point of contact (tangency) is both on the curve and on the tangent line. Thus
4 xt 2 = 8 xt 2 16 xt or 4 xt ( xt 4) = 0.
This is satisfied for xt = x1 = 0 as well as xt = x2 = 4.

(b) v(t ) = 0 at t = 0 and t = 0.831 . The corresponding positions at these times are s (0) = 0 and
s (0.831) = 0.395 .
(c) The smallest value of a (t ) occurs at approximately t = 1.278 . At this time s (1.278) = 0.128
and v(1.278) = 2.53 .
