Solve the problem.The average price for a quart of orange juice between 2002 and 2012 can be approximated by
where x is the year. Evaluate P(2010) and interpret the result.
A. P(2010) = 2.78; the average price of a quart of orange juice in 2010 was $2.78.
B. P(2010) = 2.69; the average price of a quart of orange juice in 2010 was $2.69.
C. P(2010) = 1.95; the average price of a quart of orange juice in 2010 was $1.95.
D. P(2010) = 2.69; the average price of a quart of orange juice in 2010 was $2.69 more than in 2002.

In the LORAN (LOng RAnge Navigation) radio navigation system, two radio stations located at A and B transmit simultaneous signals to a ship or an aircraft located at P. The onboard computer converts the time difference in receiving these signals into a distance difference |A| - |B|, and this, according to the definition of a hyperbola, locates the ship or aircraft on one branch of a hyperbola (see the figure). Suppose that station B is located L = 480 mi due east of station A on a coastline. A ship received the signal from B 1280 microseconds (?s) before it received the signal from A. Assuming that radio signals travel at a speed of 1000 ft/?s and if the ship is due north of B, how far off the coastline is the ship? Round your answer to the nearest mile.
