Answer:

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

Growth function.

The number of students enrolled in 2014 is 1162.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students in the school in t years after 2002 can be modeled by the following function:

N(t) = N(0)(1+r)^{t}

In which N(0) is the number of students in 2002 and r is the rate of change.

If 1+r>1, the function is a growth function.

If 1-r<1, the function is a decay function.

In 2002, there were 972 students enrolled at Oakview High School.

This means that N(0) = 972

Since then, the number of students has increased by 1.5% each year.

Increase, so r is positive. This means that r = 0.015

Then

N(t) = N(0)(1+r)^{t}

N(t) = 972(1+0.015)^{t}

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

Growth function.

Find the number of students enrolled in 2014.

2014 is 2014-2002 = 12 years after 2002, so this is N(12).

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

N(12) = 972(1.015)^{12}

N(12) = 1162

The number of students enrolled in 2014 is 1162.

If each value of the data of the poplation function is doubled which of the following is not correct?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The variance is doubled; C

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to select what will be wrong if every number in the dataset is doubled

A. This is correct

The mean is the average of the numbers which is calculated by dividing the sum of the numbers by the count of the numbers

By doubling the numbers, we have simply doubled the sum while the count is same

So what we have as the result of the division will be 2 times what we had initially making the mean doubled

B. The mode is doubled

Yes, this is correct

The mode is the highest in frequency

Doubling all numbers will not double their frequencies but their values. So the number that was the mode in the previous case will be the same but now doubled

D. The median is doubled

This is correct

The median deals with the middle number.

Since all numbers are doubled in the present case, the median to is also doubled along side as the numbers are now twice what they were evenly

C. This is wrong

The variance has to do with the spread of data

We are actually subtracting values

Since we are doubling across board, the difference between the numbers is the same as this, the variance cannot change

We can look at this from the angle that all others are measures of central tendency looking at having a central figure while the variance is a measure of spread.

You have that:

 1. By definition, a binomial is a polynomial formed by two terms. 
 2. A quintic binomial is a binomial of degree 5. This means that its highest exponent is 5.
 3. Keeping this on mind, you must identify which binomial has degree 5.
 4. As you can see, the expression <span>3x^5+2 is a binomial, because it has two terms and the highest degree is 5.
 5. Thefore, the answer is: </span>3x^5+2

An item is regularly priced at $80. Juan bought It at a discount of 20% off the regular price. How much did Juan pay?
Gnesinka [82]
Hello there! So, the item has a 20% discount, but Juan still had to pay 80% for the item. To find the amount he paid, all you have to do is multiply the price by the percentage. We multiply by 80%, because he still had to pay the portion of the price. 80 * 80% (0.8) is 64. The. Juan paid $64.
