together evenly. The polynomials are: -(x+1.241)^5-2.149 using the limits {-2.149 ≤ y ≤ 0} (x-1.759)(1/4 (x-0.959)) (x+1.241)^2-2.149 using the limits {-1.241 ≤ x ≤ 0} x^3/10-1.5 using the limits {-1.5 ≤ y ≤ 0} When plotted, the curves will give a cross section of the pool. This cross section can be seen below in Figure 5. The blue section is Equation 1, the red is Equation 2, and the purple is Equation 3. Figure 6. Cross section of the designed pool.

of January we have two points (1, 10) and (31, 12) and in the month of February, we have two points (1, 10) and (28, 9). Since the formula to calculate a slope is: Slope (m) is (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) Slope for January is m = (12 - 10) / (31 - 1) m = 2/30 m = 1/15 Slope for February is m = (9 - 10) / (28 -1) m = -1/27 Hence, we are looking for a function of the form f(x) = mx + b. To determine m and b, we use the fact that a stock price goes from $10 to $12 from January 1st to January 31, and from…
