The engineering manager of Company A proposes to install an automated barcode scanner costing $4000. He estimates that he can save about 100 hours of labor time per month, as products can now be scanned much faster. He reasons that at the wage rate of $15 per hour, the benefit for using the automated barcode scanner is $1500 per month, and the scanner can be paid back in 2.67 months. As the president of Company A, do you agree or disagree with the way he computes the cost-benefit ratio? Why or why not?

9. What transformations were applied to $f(x) = e^x$ to obtain the graph illustrated below? (Notes: the notation $f(x) \rightarrow g(x)$ indicates that the graph of $f$ gets replaced with the graph of $g$. The dotted line in the graph indicates an asymptote.) (A) $f(x) \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}f(x) - 3$ (B) $f(x) \rightarrow 2f(x) - 3$ (C) $f(x) \rightarrow 3 - 2f(x)$ (D) $f(x) \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}f(x) + 3$ (E) $f(x) \rightarrow 2f(x) + 3$

Consider the differential system \frac{d}{dt} \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & -e^t \\ e^t & 1 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix}. Show that $\begin{pmatrix} e^t \cos(e^t) \\ e^t \sin(e^t) \end{pmatrix}$ and $\begin{pmatrix} -e^t \sin(e^t) \\ e^t \cos(e^t) \end{pmatrix}$ are solutions to this system. Compute the natural fundamental matrix of this system associated with $t = 0$. Solve the initial-value problem for this system with $x(0) = 1$ and $y(0) = 1$.

(25 points) Water and oil flow in horizontal pipelines into the page (with cross section of each pipeline shown as a circle in the figure). A double U-tube manometer is connected between the pipelines, as shown. The manometer fluid has a specific gravity, $S_1$=1.6. The oil in the pipeline has a specific gravity of $S_2$= 0.9. Recall that the specific gravity of air is zero. You may assume the specific gravity of water in the pipeline =1. The specific weight of water at 4°C = 9.81 kN/m$^3$. Calculate the pressure difference between the water pipe and the oil pipe.
