    1) To find the radius (r) of a spherical water cooler that holds half a cubic meter of water, use the inverse function of the volume formula V = (4/3)πr^3. 2) To find the times when a rocket's altitude, given by f(t) = 49t^2, will be 10, 100, and 1000 feet, take the inverse of the function and solve for t, rounding to the nearest hundredth of a second. 3) If a square roof will occupy 625 square feet, its dimensions will be 25 feet by 25 feet.

    Chapter 6 Applications

    1. VOLUME Jason wants to make a spherical water cooler that can hold half a cubic meter of water. He
    knows that V =

    4
    3

    r 3 , but he needs to know how to find r given V. Find this inverse function.

    2. ROCKETS The altitude of a rocket in feet as a function of time is given by f(t) = 49

    , where t 0.

    Find the inverse of this function and determine the times when the rocket will be 10, 100, and 1000 feet
    high. Round your answers to the nearest hundredth of a second.
    3. SQUARES Cathy is building a square roof for her garage. The roof will occupy 625 square feet. What
    are the dimensions of the roof?
    4. PENDULUMS The period of a pendulum, or the time it takes to complete one swing, is given by the
    Formula p = 2

    L
    g

    where L is the length in meters of the pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity, 9.8 m/

    s2 .

    Find the period of a pendulum that is 0.65 meters long. Round to the nearest tenth.
    5. CELLS The number of cells in a cell culture grows exponentially. The number of cells in the culture as
    a function of time is given by the expression

    6
    5

    ()

    , where t is measured in hours and N is the

    initial size of the culture.


    a. After 3 hours, there were 1728 cells in the culture. What is N?
    b. How many cells were in the culture after 20 minutes? Express your answer in simplest form.
    c. How many cells were in the culture after 2.5 hours? Express your answer in simplest form.
