The population of Americans age 55 and older as a percentage of the total population is approximated by the function f(t) = 10.72(0.9t + 10)^0.3 (0 <= t < = 20)

where t is measured in years, with t=0 corresponding to the year 2000.

Required:
a. At what rate was the percentage of Americans age 55 and older changing at the beginning of 2002?
b. At what rate will the percentage of Americans age 55 and older be changing in 2017?
c. What will be the percentage of the population of Americans age 55 and older in 2017?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A)

About 0.51% per year.

Part B)

About 0.30% per year.

Part C)

About 28.26%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the population of Americans age 55 and older as a percentange of the total population is approximated by the function:

[tex]f(t) = 10.72(0.9t+10)^{0.3}\text{ where } 0 \leq t \leq 20[/tex]

Where t is measured in years with t = 0 being the year 2000.

Part A)

Recall that the rate of change of a function at a point is given by its derivative. Thus, find the derivative of our function:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = \frac{d}{dt} \left[ 10.72\left(0.9t+10\right)^{0.3}\right][/tex]

Rewrite:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = 10.72\frac{d}{dt} \left[(0.9t+10)^{0.3}\right][/tex]

We can use the chain rule. Recall that:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [u(v(x))] = u'(v(x)) \cdot v'(x)[/tex]

Let:

[tex]\displaystyle u(t) = t^{0.3}\text{ and } v(t) = 0.9t+10 \text{ (so } u(v(t)) = (0.9t+10)^{0.3}\text{)}[/tex]

Then from the Power Rule:

[tex]\displaystyle u'(t) = 0.3t^{-0.7}\text{ and } v'(t) = 0.9[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}\left[(0.9t+10)^{0.3}\right]= 0.3(0.9t+10)^{-0.7}\cdot 0.9[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = 10.72\left( 0.3(0.9t+10)^{-0.7}\cdot 0.9 \right)[/tex]

And simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = 2.8944(0.9t+10)^{-0.7}[/tex]

For 2002, t = 2. Then the rate at which the percentage is changing will be:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(2) = 2.8944(0.9(2)+10)^{-0.7} = 0.5143...\approx 0.51[/tex]

Contextually, this means the percentage is increasing by about 0.51% per year.

Part B)

Evaluate f'(t) when t = 17. This yields:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(17) = 2.8944(0.9(17)+10)^{-0.7} =0.3015...\approx 0.30[/tex]

Contextually, this means the percetange is increasing by about 0.30% per year.

Part C)

For this question, we will simply use the original function since it outputs the percentage of the American population 55 and older. Thus, evaluate f(t) when t = 17:

[tex]\displaystyle f(17) = 10.72(0.9(17)+10)^{0.3}=28.2573...\approx 28.26[/tex]

So, about 28.26% of the American population in 2017 are age 55 and older.

Let T:R²->R² be a linear transformation ,and assume that T (1,2)=(-1,1) and T(1,-1)=(2,3)


compute T(3,3) pls help me

Answers

Answer:

(-4,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given T(1,2)=(-1,1) and T(1,-1)=(2,3) and T is a linear transformation.

This implies for scalars a and b that

T(a(1,2)+b(-1,1))=aT(1,2)+bT(-1,1)

T((a,2a)+(-b,b))=a(-1,1)+b(2,3)

T((a-b,2a+b))=(-a,a)+(2b,3b)

T((a-b,2a+b))=(-a+2b,a+3b)

This means we should be able to solve the system below to find a and b for T(3,3):

a-b=3 and 2a+b=3

Add equations to eliminate b and solve for a:

3a=6

Divide 3 on both sides:

a=2

If a-b=3 and a=2, then b=-1.

Plug in a=2, b=-1:

T((a-b,2a+b))=(-a+2b,a+3b)

T((2--1,2×2+-1)=(-2+2×-1,2+3×-1)

T(3,3)=(-4,-1).

the mean of 200 item was 50 later on it was found that two items were wrongly taken as 92 and 8 instead of 192 and 88 find the correct mean.​

Answers

Answer:

Since, mean of 200 items was 50 and number of items =200

So, mean =50

Also, we know mean = number of itemssum of items

∴50=200sum of items

Sum of items = 200×50=10000

Later on, it was discovered that the two items were misread as 92 and 8 instead of 192 and 88 respectively

Then  misread         instead         Correct item

             92                   192              192-92=100

              8                     88               88-8=80

∴ Correct sum of items =10000+180=10180

∴ Correct mean = number of items/sum of items

=10180/200 =50.9

Answer:

Hello,

203.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the item first= 50*200=10000

new sum is 10000+(192-92)+(88-8)=10180

New mean=10180/200=50.9

Carol is having a hard time understanding the central limit theorem, so she decides to do her own experiment using the class data survey collected at the beginning of class on the number of hours a student takes during her Spring 2019 BUSI 2305 course. The data file has a total number of 54 students where the average is 10.8 with a standard deviation of 3.15. She sets out to collect the mean on 8 samples of 6 students. Based on this what are the total possible samples that could occur based on the population

Answers

Answer:

25827165

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question that we have here

the total population = 54 students

the sample size = 6 students

So given this information carol has to pick the total samples from the 54 students that we have here

the total ways that she has to do this

= 54 combination 6

= 54C6

= [tex]\frac{54!}{(54-6)!6!}[/tex]

= 25827165

this is the total number of possible samples that could occur given the total population of 54 students.

Answers

Answer:  262,785

Note: you may need to delete the comma

============================================================

Explanation:

The info "5 months" is never used to compute the mean. We could easily replace it with "6 months" or "7 months" or any stretch of time, and still get the same answer. So we'll ignore this value.

What we'll do is add up the 21 items given to us, and then divide by 21.

Because there are so many values, and it's easy to get lost, I'm going to add up across the rows

Row One: 256,229+253,657+218,747+246,163+235,626+288,694 = 1,499,116 Row Two: 316,265+196,721+319,620+285,077+215,152+253,291 = 1,586,126 Row Three: 315,011+199,901+265,443+291,806+303,556+215,359 = 159,1076 Row Four: 258,554+293,658+289,935 = 842,147

Those subtotals then add up to this

1,499,116+1,586,126+1,591,076+842,147 = 5,518,465

This is the same as adding up all 21 values.

Finally, we divide that sum over 21 as there are 21 values in this list

(5,518,465)/21 = 262,784.047619048

That value then rounds up to 262,785

If your teacher just wanted things to the nearest whole number (without rounding up), then the answer would be 262,784

Side note: using a spreadsheet program would probably be the most efficient/fastest method for this type of problem.

b?
a=
b =

Answers

Answers:

a = 2

b = 3

=======================================================

Explanation:

Plug in x = 0 and y = 2 to find that

y = a*b^x

2 = a*b^0

2 = a*1

2 = a

a = 2

Then plug in x = 3 and y = 54 to determine the value of b

y = a*b^x

y = 2*b^x

54 = 2*b^3

2b^3 = 54

b^3 = 54/2

b^3 = 27

b = (27)^(1/3)

b = 3

So we have y = a*b^x update to y = 2*3^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to find the formula for circumference is kinda complicated so it is best to ust memorize the formula, which is 2πr.  or 2 times pi times the radius.  

Your problem gives you the formula, but instead of 2 and r in it you have d, which is the diameter.

The diameter of the circle is 2 times the radius, so that's why it is replaced.

the radius is the distance from the center fo the circle to one edge, and the diameter is the distance through the circle passing through its center.  so it's the center to one end plus the center to another end.  or r+r which is also 2r.

So d = 2r, so in this problem d =6 feet.

So now the formula πd = 3.14*6 feet = 18.84 feet

That would be positive infinity.

The extreme value of the given polynomial [tex]f(x) = x^{2} -4[/tex] is ∞.

What is extreme value of a polynomial?

Extreme values of a polynomial are the peaks and valleys of the polynomial—the points where direction changes.

What are the steps of finding the extreme value of any polynomial?

The following steps which are required to find the extreme value of polynomial are:

Arrange the polynomial into the the form of [tex]ax^{2} +bs+c[/tex] where a, b and c are numbers.Determine whether a, the coefficient of the [tex]x^{2}[/tex] term, is positive or negative.If the term is positive, the extreme value will be the infinity because the value will continue to grow as x increases.If it is negative, use the formula [tex]\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex] to find the value for extreme. And then plug [tex]x = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex] in the original polynomial to calculate the extreme value of the polynomial.

According to the given question.

We have a polynomial

[tex]f(x) = x^{2} -4[/tex]

Since, in the given polynomial the coefficient of [tex]x^{2}[/tex] is positive . Therefore, the extreme value of the given polynomial is infinity because the value will continue to grow as x increases.

Hence, the extreme value of the given polynomial [tex]f(x) = x^{2} -4[/tex] is ∞.
