Answer: 5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the money invested has grown to $8300 and the principal was $600, this means the interest is:

= $8300 - $6500

= $1800

Simple interest = (Principal × Rate × Time)/100

1800 = (6500 × Rate × 5)/100

Cross multiply

1800 × 100 = 32500 × Rate

Rate = 180000/32500

Rate = 5.5%

Answer:

The population of Bear in 2050 is 4750000

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The exponential growth equation for bear is as follows -

dN/dT = rmax * N

Where dN/dT = change in population

rmax is the maximum rate of change

N = Base population

B) Here the per capita rate of increase (r) will always be a positive value irrespective of the and hence we will assume this population to be growing exponentially.

C) dN/dT = rmax * N

D) dN / 5 = 2.5 * 380,000

dN = 5*2.5 * 380000

= 4750000

The u.s. dairy industry wants to estimate the mean yearly milk consumption. a sample of 16 people reveals the mean yearly consum
lidiya [134]
1-2. The best estimate for the population mean would be sample mean of 60 gallons. Since we know that the sample mean is the best point of estimate. Since sample size n=16 is less than 25, we use the t distribution. Assume population from normal distribution.

3. Given a=0.1, the t (0.05, df = n – 1 = 15)=1.75

4. xbar ± t*s/vn = 60 ± 1.75*20/4 = ( 51.25, 68.75)

5. Since the interval include 63, it is reasonable.
