A) Determine an equation for the population with respect to the number of years after
2014
, assuming that the population increases at a constant rate.
Solution
The function will be of the form
p
=
a
r
n
, where
a
is the initial population,
r
is the rate of increase,
n
is the time in years and
p
is the population.
p
=
584
,
513
(
1.0002
)
n
b) Using this model, estimate the population of Wyoming in
17
years.
solution
Here,
n
=
17
.
p
=
584
,
513
(
1.002
)
17
p
=
604
,
708
c) Using this model, determine in how many years it will take for the population to exceed
600
,
000
.

Find the components of the vertical force Bold Upper FFequals=left angle 0 comma negative 10 right angle0,−10 in the directions

quester [9]

Solution :

Let $v_0$ be the unit vector in the direction parallel to the plane and let $F_1$ be the component of F in the direction of $v_0$ and $F_2$ be the component normal to $v_0$ .

Since, $|v_0| = 1,$

$(v_0)_x=\cos 60^\circ= \frac{1}{2}$

$(v_0)_y=\sin 60^\circ= \frac{\sqrt 3}{2}$

Therefore, $v_0 = \left$

From figure,

$|F_1|= |F| \cos 30^\circ = 10 \times \frac{\sqrt 3}{2} = 5 \sqrt3$

We know that the direction of $F_1$ is opposite of the direction of $v_0$ , so we have

$F_1 = -5\sqrt3 v_0$

$=-5\sqrt3 \left$

$= \left$

The unit vector in the direction normal to the plane, $v_1$ has components :

$(v_1)_x= \cos 30^\circ = \frac{\sqrt3}{2}$

$(v_1)_y= -\sin 30^\circ =- \frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, $v_1=\left< \frac{\sqrt3}{2}, -\frac{1}{2} \right>$

From figure,

$|F_2 | = |F| \sin 30^\circ = 10 \times \frac{1}{2} = 5$

∴ $F_2 = 5v_1 = 5 \left< \frac{\sqrt3}{2}, - \frac{1}{2} \right>$

$=\left$

Therefore,

$F_1+F_2 = \left< -\frac{5\sqrt3}{2}, -\frac{15}{2} \right> + \left< \frac{5 \sqrt3}{2}, -\frac{5}{2} \right>$

$= = F$

A quality control officer is randomly checking the weights of pumpkin seed bags being filled by an automatic filling machine. Ea

grandymaker [24]

If a bag of pumpkin seeds must weigh within 2.1 grams in order to be accepted, each bags must weigh between (400-2.1) grams and (400+2.1) grams. This means that if a bag weighs less than 397.9 grams (x<397.9) or more than 402.1 grams (x>402.1) it will be rejected. Therefore, 397.9>x>402.1 is the range of rejected bags.
