Answer:

88%

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is 88% because 12% of the pens are defective.

As a result, 12% ÷ 5000 = 12 ÷ 100 x 5000

= 600

There are 600 defective pens.

The pens that are left are 5000 - 600 = 4400.

4400 pens are in good working order.

This means that 88 percent = 4400 ÷ 5000 x 100

I hope this helps! ^-^

The expression 475 * 1.076 ^ t the average annual per capita health care costs, in dollars, in the US as a function of the numbe
Alik [6]

Answer:

Y(t)= 475 (1.076)^t

Where Y(t) represent the average annual per capita health care costs

475 represent the initial amount for the average annual per capita health care costs

t represent the number of years since 1970

And 1.076 represent the growth factor given by:

1+r = 1.076

And solving for r we got:

r = 1.076-1 =0.076

So for this case we can say that the value 1.076 represent the growth factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following model given:

Y(t)= 475 (1.076)^t

Where Y(t) represent the average annual per capita health care costs

475 represent the initial amount for the average annual per capita health care costs

t represent the number of years since 1970

And 1.076 represent the growth factor given by:

1+r = 1.076

And solving for r we got:

r = 1.076-1 =0.076

So for this case we can say that the value 1.076 represent the growth factor.
