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.)
a. How fast will the spending on Medicare, as a percent of the GDP, be growing in 2030?

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

Aleena expands 2xx+3-5(x-2) as 2x2+3-5x-10. Has she expanded it correctly? Please identify the mistakes and write the correct wa
Nimfa-mama [501]

The given expression is :

2xx+3-5(x-2)

We know that, x{\cdot}x=x^2

=2x^2+3-5(x-2)\\\\=2x^2+3+(-5)(x)+(-5)(-2)\\\\=2x^2+3-5x+10

Aleena expands 2xx+3-5(x-2) as 2x²+3-5x-10. She is mistaken because the sign before 10 should be +10 instead of -10. Hence, the correct expanded form is 2x²+3-5x+10. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which equation has only 1 solution? A. c+2=c+2 B. c= -c+2 C. c+2=c-2 D. c-c=2 Please explain.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

B. c= -c+2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. ...................

  • c+2=c+2
  • c-c= 2-2
  • 0=0

It has infinitely many solutions as the equation is correct for any value of c.

B. ...................

  • c= -c+2
  • c+c= 2
  • 2c = 2
  • c = 2/2
  • c= 1

It has one solution only

C. ...................

  • c+2=c-2
  • c-c= -2 - 2
  • 0 = -4

It has no solution as this equation is incorrect

D. ...................

  • c-c=2
  • 0 = 2

It has no solution as this equation is incorrect
