Chapter 1.3, Problem 24E
Physical Sciences
Length of a Pendulum Grandfather clocks use pendulums to keep accurate time. The relationship between the length of a pendulum L. and the time T for one complete oscillation can be determined from the data in the table.* Source: Gary Rockswold.
| L(ft) | T(sec) |
| 1.0 | 1.11 |
| 1.5 | 1.36 |
| 2.0 | 1.57 |
| 2.5 | 1.76 |
| 3.0 | 1.92 |
| 3.5 | 2.08 |
| 4.0 | 2.22 |
(a) Plot the data from the table with L as the horizontal axis and T as the vertical axis.
(b) Find the least squares line equation and graph it simultaneously, if possible, with the data points. Does it seem to fit the data?
*The actual relationship is L = 0.81 T2, which is not a linear relationship. This illustrates that even if the relationship is not linear, a. line can give a good approximation.
(c) Find the

Based on the graph of f(x) in the figure, determine wheref' (x) > 0.
Give your answer using interval notation. If f' (x) > 0 from -5 to –3, enter (-5, –3). Iff'(x) > 0 from -5 to –3 and
then again at all points after 6, enter (-5, –3) U (6, ∞). The U symbol can be found by changing "basic" to "sets" in the
drop-down menu.
