When a foreign object lodged in the trachea forces a person tocough, the diaphragm thrusts upward causing an increase in pressurein the lungs. this is accompanied by a contraction of the trachea, making a narrower channel for the expelled air to flow through. fora given amount of air to escape in a fixed time, it must movefaster through the narrower channel then the wider one. the greaterthe velocity of the airstream, the greater the force on the foreignobject. x rays show that the radius of the circular tracheal tubecontracts to about two-thirds of its normal radius during a cough. according to a mathematical model of coughing, the velocity v ofthe airstream is related to the radius r of the trachea by theequation: v(r) = k (r0 - r)r2 1/2r0 less than r less than r0where k is the constant and r0 is the normal radius ofthe trachea. the restriction on r is due to the fact that thetracheal wall stiffens under pressure and a contraction greaterthan 1/2 r0 is prevented. a) determine the value of r in the interval [1/2 r0,r0] at which v has an absolute maximum. how does thiscompare with the experimental evidenceb) what is the absolute maximum value of v on the interval? c) sketch the graph of v on the interval [0, r0]

Lian is deciding which of two gyms to join. each gym charges a monthly rate plus a one-time membership fee. lian correctly wrote and solved a system of linear equations by substitution to compare the costs of the memberships. in her work, she substituted an expression for one variable and solved for the other. this resulted in the equation 75 = 75. what can lian conclude? one gym charges $75 per month. each gym charges $75 per month both gyms charge the same monthly rate and the same membership fee. both gyms charge the same monthly rate, but not the same membership fee.
