The situation can be modeled by a geometric sequence with an initial term of 284. The student population will be 104% of the prior year, so the common ratio is 1.04.
Let \displaystyle PP be the student population and \displaystyle nn be the number of years after 2013. Using the explicit formula for a geometric sequence we get
{P}_{n} =284\cdot {1.04}^{n}P
n
=284⋅1.04
n
We can find the number of years since 2013 by subtracting.
\displaystyle 2020 - 2013=72020−2013=7
We are looking for the population after 7 years. We can substitute 7 for \displaystyle nn to estimate the population in 2020.
\displaystyle {P}_{7}=284\cdot {1.04}^{7}\approx 374P
7
=284⋅1.04
7
≈374
The student population will be about 374 in 2020.
Answer:
The point estimate for this problem is 0.48.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a University wanted to find out the percentage of students who felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students.
A survey of 2,800 students was conducted and the students were asked if they felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students. The results were 1,344 answered "Yes" and 1,456 answered "no".
<em>Let </em>
<em> = proportion of students who felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students</em>
<u></u>
<u>Now, point estimate (</u>
<u>) is calculated as;</u>
where, X = number of students who answered yes = 1,344
n = number of students surveyed = 2,800
So, Point estimate (
) =
= <u>0.48 or 48%</u>
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: y = 2x - 7
Discussion:
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
2y /2 = (4x-14)/2 = 4x/2 -14/2
or
y = 2x - 7
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
the inequality is x < −

/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are an infinite number of these whole numbers. Thus the series goes on without bounds. Whatever very big number you can think of there is another one which is 1 greater.
