Chapter 8, Problem 1SYU
To determine

Whether the statement “If a function gives an indication of the quantity Q of pollutants, in parts per million, at a distance of x kilometers at time t from a waste incinerator post the incineration has come to an end. Since EBK APPLIED CALCULUS, ENHANCED ETEXT, Chapter 8, Problem 1SYU then the units Q=f(x,t) of 1.5 are ppm.” is true or false.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 1SYU

The provided statement is false. The unit of 1.5 is not ppm.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

A statement,

If a function Q=f(x,t) gives an indication of the quantity Q of pollutants, in parts per million, at a distance of x kilometers at time t from a waste incinerator post the incineration has come to an end. Since f(1.5,6)=4.1 then the units of 1.5 are ppm.”

Consider the given information that if a function Q=f(x,t) gives an indication of the quantity Q of pollutants, in parts per million, at a distance of x kilometers at time t from a waste incinerator post the incineration has come to an end. Since f(1.5,6)=4.1 then the units of 1.5 are ppm.”

The function indicated Q=f(x,t) is a two variable function where, x is the distance in kilometers and t is time. Q is indication of the quantity. Since parts per million is not distance and in f(x,t) as f(1.5,6)

x=1.5. Thus, the unit of x should be kilometers.

Thus, the provided statement is false.
