MATH 133 - Unit 4 Individual Project

NAME (Required): _______________________

Assignment Instructions:

1.For each question, show all of your work using Equation Editor for full credit.

2.Insert all labeled and titled graphs by using screenshots from Excel or desmos.com (or other graph program) as described in the Unit 1 Discussion Board.

3.Provide final answers to all questions in boxes provided.

4.Round all value answers to 3 decimal places, unless otherwise noted.

Formulas Provided:

Your company studied how consumers would rate Internet service providers based on the size of files that they download (x). The following equations model the relationship between two variables from the result of a survey conducted in North America, Europe, and Asia:

North America

Europe

Asia

In these equations, you have the following variables:

x is the size of files to be downloaded (in megabytes).

k is the speed of download.

N(x) is the average ratings in North America (in percent).

E(x) is the average ratings in Europe (in percent).

A(x) is the average ratings in Asia (in percent).

The consumer ratings can range from 0% (unsatisfactory) to 100% (excellent).

1.From the table below, use the row that matches the first letter of your last name to select a value for k that you will use in the equations above. It does not necessarily have to be a whole number.

3.Draw the graphs of the three equations from Problem 1 using desmos.com, Excel, or any similar online utilities. Label each equation shown as a different color, and put all of these on the same graph. An introduction to desmos.com can be found at http://learn.desmos.com/graphing.

Be sure to title the graph as your first and last name. In addition, label and number the x-axis and the y-axis appropriately so that the graph matches the calculated values from above. Use the axes scales of and . (20 points)
