Q. 85


Emmy is a civil engineer who has to approximate the slope of the water table along a certain line in the Hanford Nuclear Reservation. She can dig only three test holes to evaluate the depth of groundwater at certain points.
She finds that the water table lies at (0, 35), (300, 38), and (600, 42), with all distances given in feet and positive vertical distances representing distances below the surface.


(a) Using the data from the first two wells, estimate the slope of the water table. Use this slope to write an equation of a line that describes the water table.

(b) Considering the equation of the line from part (a) as the first two terms of a Maclaurin series for the function w(x) describing the water table, write an
expression for the error in this linear approximation.

(c) Verify that the graph of the quadratic

 w2(x)=1180000x2+1120x+35


passes through the three data points describing the
water table.

in the linear approximation to the water table.
