Brrunno [24]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

a. Decay

b. 0.5

c. 4

Explanation:

If we have a function of the form

y=ab^x

then

a = intital amount

b = growth / decay rate factor

x = time interval

If b > 1; then the equation is modelling growth. If b < 0, then the equation is modelling decay.

Now in our case, we have

y=4(\frac{1}{2})^x

Here we see that

inital amount = a = 4

b = 1/ 2 < 0, meaning the function is modeling decay

decay factor = b = 1/2

Therefore, the answers are

a. Decay

b. 0.5

c. 4

Account A and Account B both have a principal of $2,000 and an annual interest rate of 2%. No additional deposits or withdrawals
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Account B earns more interest.

After 20 years, account B will have earned $171.89 more.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the total for each account.

Account A:

Account A earns simple interest. We know that the principal value is $2000 and the interest rate is 2% or 0.02. We can use the simple interest formula:

A=P(1+rt)

Where A is the future value, P is the principal, r is the rate, and t is the time in years.

So, let's substitute 2000 for P, 0.02 for r, and 20 for t. This yields:

A=2000(1+0.02(20))

Multiply and add:

A=2000(1+0.4)=2000(1.4)

Multiply. So, the total amount of money in Account A after 20 years is:

A=\$2800

Since we initially deposited $2000 and our total is now $2800, this means that we earned an interest of 2800-2000=\$ 800

Account B:

Account B earns compound interest. Like Account A, Account B has a principal value of $2000 and the interest rate is 2% or 0.02. We also know that it's compounded annually, so once per year. We can use the compound interest formula:

B=P(1+\frac{r}{n}})^{nt}

Where B is the future value, P is the principal, r is the rate, n is the times compounded per year, and t is the time in years.

So, let's substitute 2000 for P, 0.02 for r, n for 1 (since it's compounded annually), and t for 20. This yields:

B=2000(1+\frac{0.02}{1})^{(1)(20)}

Simplify this to acquire:

B=2000(1.02)^{20}

Evaluate. Use a calculator. So, after 20 years, the amount of money in Account B is:

B\approx\$2971.89

Since our principal was $2000, this means that we earned an interest of approximately  2971.89-2000=\$ 971.89.

So, Account A earned an interest of $800 and Account B earned an approximate interest of $971.89.

So, Account B earned more interest.

And it earned 971.89-800=\$ 171.89 more than Account A.

And we're done!

9.4 The heights of a random sample of 50 college stu- dents showed a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a stan- dard deviation of 6.9
gladu [14]

Answer:  a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean height  = 174.5 cm

Standard deviation = 6.9 cm

n = 50

we need to find the 98% confidence interval.

So, z = 2.326

(a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students.

x\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=(174.5\pm 2.326\times \dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}})\\\\=(174.5+2.26,174.5-2.26)\\\\=(176.76,172.24)

(b) What can we assert with 98% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centime- ters?

Error would be

\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=\dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=0.976

Hence, a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.
