ECON 2305 Tangent lines and the slope along a curve
The blue curve on the following graph shows the height of an airplane over 10 minutes of flight. The two black lines are tangent to the curve at the points indicated by A and B.
The slope of the blue curve measures the plane’s ( heading, altitude, rate of descent, time in the air). The unit of measurement for the slope of the curve is (miles per hour, degrees, thousands of feet per minute, thousands of feet) .
At point A, the slope of the curve is (7, 7000, -10000, -2.5, -10, -2500) which means that the plane is (ascending, descending) at a rate of (-10, 2500, -2500, -2.5, 7000, 7, -10000) feet per minute.
At point B, the slope of the blue curve is (-6.67, -10000, 2000, 2, -10, -6666.67) which means that the plane is (ascending, descending) at a rate of (6666.67, 2, -10, 2000, -6.67, -6666.67, -10000) feet per minute.

Using the information on the slope of the lines tangent to the curve at points B and D, plot the slope of the total revenue curve on the graph below. (As it turns out, it's a straight line, so the two points you plot will determine a line.) The total revenue curve reaches its maximum at a quantity of _______ dishwashers per year. At this point, the slope of the total revenue curve is _______ .
This problem gives you a preview of something you might see in a microeconomics class. Suppose there's an appliance store that sells air conditioners. It could set its price high and sell very few air conditioners, or it could set its price low and sell many more air conditioners. The following table shows some possible choices this store could make:The graph below plots the firm's "total revenue" curve: that is, the relationship between quantity and total revenue given by the...
Because the derivative of a function represents both the slope of the tangent to the curve and the instantaneous rate of change of the function, it is possible to use information about one to gain information about the other. Consider the graph of the function y = f(x) given in the figure. (a) Over what interval(s) (a) through (d) is the rate of change of f(x) positive? (Select all that apply.) OOOO (b) Over what interval(s) (a) through (d) is...

(100 points) Water at 25°C is pumped at a rate of 0.075m's from a reservoir 20m above a pump to a free 1. discharge (this means discharged to atmosphere) 35m above the pump. The pressure on the intake side of the pump is 150kPa and the pressure on the discharge side of the pump is 450kPa. The pipe between the reservoir and the pump is 3 meters of Sin diameter cast iron. From the pump to the discharge the pipe...
