introduction

IS 5. Suppose the annual fine for removing less than 80% of the particulate pollution from the smokestack is $700,000. If you were the company's chief financial officer (CFO), would you advise the company to remove the pollution or pay the fine? Why? 6. If the company has already paid to remove 60% of the particulate pollution, would you advise the com- pany to remove another 20% or pay the fine? 7. If you were a lawmaker, to what amount would you raise the fine in order to encourage power plants to comply with the pollution regulations? 8. Compare the costs of removing 80% and 90% of the pollution from the smokestack. Do you think the ben- efit of removing 90% of particulate pollution rather than 80% is worth the cost? What is the total cost to make the 10 nlates and 1. Global ate the 1. Suppose the annual cost C (in hundreds of dollars) of removing p% of the particulate pollution from the smokestack of a power plant is given by 242,000 c(p) = 2420 100 - P a. What is the domain of the function described by this equation? b Taking into account the meaning of the variables, give the domain and range of the function. 2. Find C(60) and C(80) and interpret (480). 3. Find the asymptotes of the function. What does the vertical asymptote tell you about the cost of remov- ing pollution? 4. Find and interpret the y-intercept, 2. Printing A printer has a contract to print 100.000 invitations for IS 5.
