You own a plot of riverfront property which is pictured in the figure. Your property runs along the x-axis from x=0 to x=100 and is bounded by the lines x=0, x=100 and the River Sine.
1. What is the equation of the River Sine?
2. What is the area of the plot?
3. You have $600 to spend, and you hire a gardening firm to install a fence along the riverside part of your property. The firm will charge you $3 a foot for the fence including installation. If there is any money left over, the firm will fertilize the lot. They charge $20 a bag for fertilizer. One bag of fertilizer will cover 1,000 square feet.
