14. An amount, in milligrams, of a radium sample present after t years can be modeled by
0.0004
,
t
A ke

= where k
is a constant. Currently there are 60mgs of radium.
a) Approximately how much radium will be present 100years from now?

15. You are an ardent fan of the CSI television series and is aware that Newtons Law of Cooling is used in homicide
investigations to determine the time of death. You also know that normal body temperature is 98.6 F and the body
begins to cool upon death. The temperature T of a body at time t can be modeled by
0.1947
( ) ,
t
s o
T t T D e

= +
where
s
T is the surrounding temperature and
o
D is the temperature difference between the body and its surrounding.
A body was found in a freezer with a temperature of 40 and the temperature of the body is now 70 . How long
ago was the time of death?

16. A regular hexagon is inscribed in a circle of radius 4 cm.
a) Find the area of the hexagon.
b) Find the area of the region inside the circle and outside the hexagon.
c) Find the area of a sector subtended by radii drawn to two consecutive vertices of the hexagon.

17. A wheel of diameter of 4 feet makes 150 revolutions per minute. Find a) the angular speed (in radians per second)
and b) the linear speed (in feet per second) of a point on the rim.

18. A hot air balloon is at an elevation of 1500 feet directly above a highway. Two cars, on parallel sides of the
highway, are coming toward each other from opposite sides of the balloon. The angle that one car makes with the
balloon is 50 while the angle with the other car is 38 . How far apart are the two cars?
