more than one way to do this\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"800%2A%281%2Br%29%5E2=1280\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1%2Br=sqrt%281280%2F800%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"r=sqrt%28128%2F80%29-1\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"r=sqrt%288%2F5%29-1\"
\n" ); document.write( "and then you can say \"f%28t%29=800%281%2Br%29%5Et\".
\n" ); document.write( "That would be for t in HOURS. You want the appropriate adjustment for DAYS.\r
