Question

The attached worksheet was obtained in a laboratory design of asphalt concrete mixture for medium traffic. Carry out the required analysis and hence complete the table. Using the average results

for each asphalt content, plot the necessary graphs and determine the optimum asphalt content based on air voids content requirement. Verify whether the optimum asphalt content determined will meet the GHA dense-graded specifications for medium traffic given in the table below. Use the following specific gravity values for your analysis: Bulk specific gravity of aggregates, Ga=2.65, Specific gravity of bitumen (asphalt), Gs=1.02 You should show sample computations involved in your analysis. Marks will be awarded forclarity of DEssentation. Average values of parameters are not required in shaded regions on the laboratory worksheettable for Q but are required in the areas with a tick (V) for all asphalt contents.

Your submission must be a single PDF and all pages must be oriented correctly (e.g. pages should not be upside down). If your submission does not follow these guidelines, then points may be deducted. Please answer each question fully, providing all reasoning. You will be graded based on both mathematical correctness and clarity of writing. See the Written Portion Rubric on D2L for more details. Let b denote the last nonzero digit of your UCID number. e.g. if your UCID is 9876543280 then b = 8. 1. Let C and D be constants. Consider the function f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} \sqrt{b x+1}+C, & \hat{x} \geq 0 \\ D x+x^{4} \sin \left(\frac{b}{x}\right), & x<0 \end{array}\right. Use the limit definition of the derivative f^{\prime}(a)=\lim _{x \rightarrow a} \frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a} to determine what C and D must equal in order for f(0) to exist. (You must use the limit definition of the derivative to receive credit for this question. If you do not, then you will not receive credit.) Hint: You will need to use one-sided limits.
