The median age (in years) of the U.S. population over the decades from 1960 through 2010 is given by
f(t) = −0.2176t3 + 1.962t2 − 2.833t + 29.4 (0 ≤ t ≤ 5)
where t is measured in decades, with t = 0 corresponding to 1960.
(a) What was the median age of the population in the year 1970?
(b) At what rate was the median age of the population changing in the year 1970?
(c) Calculate f ''(1).

Answers

Answer 1

Considering the given function, we have that:

a) 28.31 years.

b) 0.3382 years a decade.

c) 2.6184.

What is the function?

The median age of the U.S. population in t decades after 1960 is:

f(t) = -0.2176t³ + 1.962t² - 2.833t + 29.4.

1970 is one decade after 1960, hence the median was:

f(1) = -0.2176 x 1³ + 1.962 x 1² - 2.833 x 1 + 29.4 = 28.31 years.

The rate of change was is the derivative when t = 1, hence:

f'(t) = -0.6528t² + 3.924t - 2.933

f'(1) = -0.6528 x 1² + 3.924 x 1 - 2.933 = 0.3382 years a decade.

The second derivative is:

f''(t) = -1.3056t + 3.924

Hence:

f''(1) = -1.3056 x 1 + 3.924 = 2.6184.

Here is a right triangle

Let, The hypotenuse = 15

perpendicular = z and base = 15 = a + b

⇒ sin60 = perpendicular/hypotenuse = z/15

⇒ z = 15sin60 = (15√3)/2

⇒ cos30 = base/hypotenuse = b/z

⇒ b = zcos30 = (15√3)/2 * √3/2 = 45/4

⇒ a + b = 15

Substitute the value of b in the above equation,

B = 0.6 + 0.01

B = 0.61

To get A, we will add 0.03 to 0.5 as shown:

A = 0.5 + 0.03

A = 0.53

To get the value of C, we will subtract 0.04 from  0.5

as shown:

C = 0.5 - 0.04

C =0.46

Hence A = 0.46, B = 0.61 and C = 0.46

the center is at the origin of a coordinate system and the foci are on the y-axis, then the foci are symmetric about the origin.

The hyperbola focus F1 is 46 feet above the vertex of the parabola and the hyperbola focus F2 is 6 ft above the parabola's vertex. Then the distance F1F2 is 46-6=40 ft.

In terms of hyperbola, F1F2=2c, c=20.

What is the value c such that the approximate probability that the total time spent on the calls each day is less than c is 0.95? Give your answer to four decimal places. Use the standard deviation as you entered it above to answer this question.

Answers

Answer:

The expected total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day is of 174.8 minutes.

The standard deviation of the total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day is of 17.4356 minutes.

0.3085 = 30.85% approximate probability that the total time spent on the calls will be less than 166 minutes.

The value c such that the approximate probability that the total time spent on the calls each day is less than c is 0.95 is [tex]c = 203.4816[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

n instances of a normally distributed variable:

For n instances of a normally distributed variable, the mean is:

[tex]M = n\mu[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]

Calls to a customer service center last on average 2.3 minutes with a standard deviation of 2 minutes.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2.3, \sigma = 2[/tex]

An operator in the call center is required to answer 76 calls each day.

This means that [tex]n = 76[/tex]

What is the expected total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day?

[tex]M = n\mu = 76*2.3 = 174.8[/tex]

The expected total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day is of 174.8 minutes.

What is the standard deviation of the total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day?

[tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n} = 2\sqrt{76} = 17.4356[/tex]

The standard deviation of the total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day is of 17.4356 minutes.

What is the approximate probability that the total time spent on the calls will be less than 166 minutes?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 166.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For this problem:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - M}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{166 - 174.8}{17.4356}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6915.

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085.

0.3085 = 30.85% approximate probability that the total time spent on the calls will be less than 166 minutes.

What is the value c such that the approximate probability that the total time spent on the calls each day is less than c is 0.95?

This is X = c for which Z has a p-value of 0.95, so X = c when Z = 1.645. Then

[tex]Z = \frac{X - M}{s}[/tex]

[tex]1.645 = \frac{c - 174.8}{17.4356}[/tex]

[tex]c - 174.8 = 1.645*17.4356[/tex]

[tex]c = 203.4816[/tex]

The value c such that the approximate probability that the total time spent on the calls each day is less than c is 0.95 is [tex]c = 203.4816[/tex]

Find the local linear approximation L(x) of the function f(x) = 5−x^2 at x = 2.
Use this to estimate f(2.1).

Answers

Answer:

L(x)=-4x+9

L(2.1)=0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

It's asking us to find the tangent line to curve f(x) = 5−x^2 at x = 2.

Theb use this to estimate f(2.1).

To find slope of tangent line, we must differentiate and then plug in 2 for x.

f'(x)=0-2x by constant and power rule.

f'(x)=-2x

So the slope of the tangent line is -2(2)=-4.

A point on this tangent line shared by the curve is at x=2. We can find it's corresponding y-value using f(x)=5-x^2.

f(2)=5-(2)^2

f(2)=5-4

f(2)=1

So let's rephrase the question a little.

What's the equation for a line with slope -4 and goes through point (2,1).

Point-slope form y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.

Plug in our information: y-1=-4(x-2).

Distribute: y-1=-4x+8

Add 1 on both sides: y=-4x+9

Let's call this equation L(x), an expression to approximate value for f near x=2.

L(x)=-4x+9

Now the appropriation at x=2.1:

L(2.1)=-4(2.1)+9

L(2.1)=-8.4+9

L(2.1)=0.6

If we did plug in 2.1 into given function we get 5-(2.1)^2=0.59 . This is pretty close to our approximation above.
