A researcher found that the level of antacid in a person's stomach, t minutes after a certain brand of antacid tablet is taken, is L(t) = \displaystyle{\frac{6t}{t^2 + 2t + 1}}.

• Determine the value of t for which L'(t) = 0.

A researcher found that the level of antacid in a person's stomach, t minutes after a certain brand of antacid tablet is taken, is L(t) = \displaystyle{\frac{6t}{t^2 + 2t + 1}}.

Determine L(1)

A researcher found that the level of antacid in a person's stomach, t minutes after a certain brand of antacid tablet is taken, is L(t) = \displaystyle{\frac{6t}{t^2 + 2t + 1}}.

i) Using your graphing calculator, graph L(t).

ii) From the graph, what can you predict about the level of antacid in a person's stomach after 1 min?

iii) What is happening to the level of antacid in person's stomach from 2\leq t \leq 8.

The operating cost, C, in dollars per hour, for an airplane cursing at a height of h metres and an air speed of 200 km/h is given by C = 4000 + \displaystyle{\frac{h}{15}} + \displaystyle{\frac{15 000 000}{h}} for the domain 1000 \leq h \leq 20 000. Determine the height at which the operating cost is at a minimum, and find the operating cost per hour at this height.

A rectangular piece of land is to be fenced using two kinds of fencing. Two opposite sides will be fenced using standard fencing that costs $6/m, while the other two sides will require heavy-duty fencing that costs $9/m. What are the dimensions of the rectangular lot of greatest area that can be fenced for a cost of $9000?

A bus service carries 10 000 people daily between Ajax and Union Station, and the company has space to serve up to 15 000 people per day. The cost to ride the bus is \$20. Market research shows that if the fare increases by \$0.50, 200 fewer people will ride the bus.

What fare should be charged to get the maximum revenue, given that the bus company must have at least \$130 000 in fares a day to cover operating costs?

The fuel cost per hour for running a ship is approximately one half the cube of the speed (measured in knots) plus additional fixed costs of $216 per hour. Find the most economical speed to run the ship for a 500 M (nautical mile) trip. Note: Assume that there are no major disturbances, such as heavy tides or stormy seas.

The cost of producing an ordinary cylindrical tin can is determined by the materials used for the wall and the end pieces. If the end pieces are twice as expensive per square centimetre as the wall, find the dimensions (to the nearest millimetre) to make a 1000 cm^3 can at minimal cost.

Sandy is making a closed rectangular jewellery box with a square base from two different woods. The wood for the top and bottom costs 20/m^2. The wood for the sides costs 30/m^2 . Find the dimensions that will minimize the cost of the wood for a volume of 4000 $ cm^3.
