    W. H. Freeman and WebAssign





    W. H. Freeman and WebAssign have partnered to deliver an outstanding resource for your calculus course.

    WebAssign Premium for Sullivan and Miranda's Calculus will have approximately 6000 questions with solutions available to students by instructor choice. In addition to these questions, it offers CalcClip videos, interactive tutorials, a fully searchable eBook linked to questions as well as algorithmic solutions available to students at the instructor’s discretion.

    Click here to learn more about the careful, precise development, the distinct features of this text or to see a sample chapter.

    Here are some textbook questions from Calculus 1/e by Michael Sullivan and Kathleen Miranda published by W. H. Freeman. Click here for a list of all of the questions coded in WebAssign. This demo assignment allows many submissions and allows you to try another version of the same question for practice wherever the problem has randomized values.

    The answer key and solutions will display after the first submission for demonstration purposes. Instructors can configure these to display after the due date or after a specified number of submissions.

Assignment Submission

For this assignment, you submit answers by question parts. The number of submissions remaining for each question part only changes if you submit or change the answer.

Oetzi the Iceman was found in 1991 by a German couple who were hiking in the Alps near the border of Austria and Italy. Carbon-14 testing determined that Oetzi died 5300 years ago. Assuming the half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years, what percent of carbon-14 was left in his body? (An interesting note: In September 2010 the complete genome mapping of Oetzi was completed. Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Newton's Law of Cooling states that the rate of change of temperature with respect to time is proportional to the difference between the temperature of the object and the ambient temperature T. A thermometer that reads
6°C
is brought into a room that is
35°C.
(a) Write the differential equation that models the temperature
u = u(t)
of the thermometer at time t in minutes (min).
    

(b) Find the general solution of the differential equation.
    

(c) If the thermometer reads
12°C
after 2 min, determine the temperature reading 5 min after the thermometer is first brought into the room. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
°C
