Find $B(t)-D(t)$ and interpret this function. ***Solution:*** $B(t)-D(t)=12t^3-347.35t^2+3207.7t-7796$, this function represent the approximated increase or decrease in people from 2008 to 2012. **75.** A company invests $98,000 for equipment to produce a new product. Each unit of the product costs $12.30 and is sold for $17.98. Let $x$ be the number of units produced and sold. a. Write the total cost $C$ as a function of $x$. b. Write the revenue $R$ as a function of $x$. c. Write the profit $P$ as a function of $x$. ***Solution:*** a. $C(x)=98000+12.3x$. b. $R(x)=17.98x$. c. $P(x)=R(x)-C(x)=5.68x-98000$. ### Section 1.5 **4.** Use the graph to find the limit. ![](https://i.imgur.com/Ajl90td.png) a. $\lim_{x\rightarrow-2}h(x)$ b. $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}h(x)$ ***Solution:*** a. $\lim_{x\rightarrow-2}h(x)=-5$ b. $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}h(x)=-3$ **6.** Complete the table and use the result to estimate the limit. Use a graphing utility to graph the function to confirm your result. $\lim_{x\rightarrow1}x^2-4x-1$ | $x$ | 0.9 | 0.99 | 0.999 | 1 | 1.001 | 1.01 | 1.1 | | -------- | --- | ---- | ----- | - | ----- | ---- | --- | | $f(x)$ | | | | ? | | | | ***Solution:*** | $x$ | 0.9 | 0.99 | 0.999 | 1 | 1.001 | 1.01 | 1.1 | | -------- | --- | ---- | ----- | - | ----- | ---- | --- | | $f(x)$ |-3.79|-3.9799|-3.998 | -4 |-4.002 |-4.0199 | -4.19| * Find the limit (if it exists). **42.** $\lim_{x\rightarrow-3}\frac{x^3+27}{x+3}$ ***Solution:*** $$\lim_{x\rightarrow-3}\frac{x^3+27}{x+3}=\lim_{x\rightarrow-3}\frac{(x+3)(x^2-3x+9)}{x+3}=^{x\neq-3}\lim_{x\rightarrow-3}x^2-3x+9=27.$$ **51.** $\lim_{x\rightarrow2}f(x)$, where $$f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} 4-x, & x\neq 2 \\ 0, & x=2\end{array}\right..$$ ***Solution:*** We can find that $\lim_{x\rightarrow2^+}f(x)=2$ and that$\lim_{x\rightarrow2^-}f(x)=2$, so $\lim_{x\rightarrow2}f(x)=2$. * Use the graph to find the limit (if it exists). a. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c^+}f(x)$ b. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c^-}f(x)$ c. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c}f(x)$ **60.** ![](https://i.imgur.com/aPXxApJ.png) ***Solution:*** a. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c^+}f(x)=-2$ b. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c^-}f(x)=-2$ c. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c}f(x)=-2$ **64.** ![](https://i.imgur.com/erMY8ix.png) ***Solution:*** a. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c^+}f(x)=0$ b. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c^-}f(x)=2$ c. $\lim_{x\rightarrow c}f(x)$ does not exist since $\lim_{x\rightarrow c^+}f(x)\neq\lim_{x\rightarrow c^-}f(x)$. ### Section 1.6 * Determine whether the function is continuous on the entire real number line. Explain your reasoning. **4.** $f(x)=\frac{1}{9-x^2}$ ***Solution:*** Since $f$ is not defined at $x=\pm2$, that is, the denominator(分母) equals zero for $x=\pm2$, $f$ is not continuous on the entire real number line. **5.** $f(x)=\frac{1}{4+x^2}$ ***Solution:*** Since the deniminator is nonzero for every real $x$ and is polynomial, the function $f$ is continuous on the entire real number line. **61.** The cost $C$ (in millions of dollars) of removing $x$ percent of the pollutants emitted from the smokestack of a factory can be modeled by $$C=\frac{2x}{100-x}.$$ a. What is the implied domain of $C$? Explain your reasoning. b. Use a graphing utility to graph the cost function. Is the function continuous on its domain? Explain your reasoning. c. Find the cost of removing 75% of the pollutants from the smokestack. ***Solution:*** a. Since the denominator of $C$ is nonzero for $x\neq100$, and the implementation of percentage implies the bound $0\leq x\leq100$, the implied domain of $C$ is $\{x\in\mathbb{R}:0\leq x<100\}$. b. c. Substitute $x$ with 75, we have $$C=\frac{2\cdot75}{100-75}=6.$$
