Clare finds an expression for S(r) that gives the surface area in square inches of any cylindrical can with a specific fixed volume, in
terms of its radius r in centimeters. This is the graph Clare gets if she allows r to take on any value between 1.2 and 3.

Respuesta :

The function that gives the surface area has the radius as a denominator.

  • The values r can take are; 0.1, 1, 2, and 3

Reasons:

The given parameter are;

The expression Clare finds is the surface area for a fixed volume in terms of the radius, r, is S(r)

The function is used to plot the graph

The values r are allowed to take (obtained from a similar question are) = -1, 2, and 3

The graph of a similar function representing the surface area is attached;

[tex]\displaystyle S(r) = \mathbf{2 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2 + \frac{2 \cdot \pi }{r}}[/tex]

From the graph, it is observed that there is a vertical asymptote at x = 0 (infinite discontinuity)

Therefore, Claire should use the a domain that gives a continuous graph,

given that r is a denominator of the function, by allowing the radius, r to

take on only natural number values (values larger than 0)

The domain is therefore; 0 < r < ∞

The values r can take should therefore be 0.1, 1, 2, and 3
