Based on the current eligibility requirement, a study conducted in 2004 showed that federal spending on entitlement programs, pa

rticularly Medicare, would grow enormously in the future. The study predicted that spending on Medicare, as a percentage of the gross domestic product (GDP), will be P(t) = 0.27t^2 + 1.4t + 2.1 (0 <= t <= 5) percent in year t, where t is measured in decades, and t = 0 corresponds to 2000. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

Answer:

A) 2.9% of GDP

B) 8.73% of GDP

Step-by-step explanation:

A) To find the rate of spending, let's find the derivative of the function

P(t) = 0.27t² + 1.4t + 2.1 (0 <= t <= 5)

So,

dP/dt = 0.54t + 1.4 which is the annual growth rate.

Since t is measured in decades, thus in 2030 ,it will have been 3 decades, so we have t = 3

So, at t=3; dp/dt = 0.5(3) + 1.4 = 1.5 + 1.4 = 2.9 which means spending in 2030 will be growing at rate of 2.9%

B) The predicated spending is;

P(t) = 0.27t² + 1.4t + 2.1

Thus, in 2030, will be 3 decades so, t= 3

Thus;

P(3) = 0.27(3²) + 1.4(3) + 2.1 = 8.73 which is 8.73% of GDP

Find the size of angel x<br><br><br>​
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The measurement of x is 56 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Below that angle is a straight line measuring 180 degrees, so if one part of that 180 is 124 you would take 124 from 180.

180-124=x

x=56

Hope this has helped have a great day.

Laura is three times as old as Luci. In 5 years, the sum of their ages will be 30. What are the current ages of Laura and Luci?
Scrat [10]

Answer:

Laura is 15 and Luci is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now...

Laura - 3x

Luci - x

In 5 years...

Laura - 3x+5

Luci - x+5

The sum of that is...

4x+10=30

-10       -10

4x=20

4/4  20/4

x=5

If...

Laura - 5 than.....

Luci - 15 because 5*3 is 15
