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?
b. What will the predicted spending on Medicare be 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

Answer:

<em>As mean and median are equal, so the data will be in normal distribution in shape of a symmetrical "bell curve".</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data:   10   5   8   10   12   6   8   10   15   6   12   18

<u>Mean is the simple average of all data</u>. As, there are total 12 data, so the Mean will be:  \frac{10+5+8+10+12+6+8+10+15+6+12+18}{12}= \frac{120}{12}=10

For finding the Median, <u>first we need to rearrange the data according to the numerical order and then identify the middle value</u>. So........

5   6   6   8   8   10   10   10   12   12   15   18

Here the middle values are 10 and 10. So, the median will be the average of those two middle values.

Thus, Median =\frac{10+10}{2}=\frac{20}{2}=10

We can see that, <u>the relationship between the mean and the median is "they are equal"</u>. So, the data will be in normal distribution and the shape will be symmetrical "bell curve".

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS PLEASE!!! ITS IXL
yarga [219]

Answer:

below

Step-by-step explanation:

The point N is at (-7, -8)

The point N’ is at (4, -4)

On the x-axis, -7 to 4 is a shift of 11 units to the right.

On the y-axis, -8 to -4 is a shift of 4 units upward.

To find the scale factor, we need to find the change in radius size.

As previously identified, the center of Circle N is (-7, -8). If we draw a vertical line from the center to the edge of the circle, the line will be 2 units long.

As previously identified, the center of Circle N’ is (-4, -4). If we draw a vertical line from the center to the edge of the circle, the line will be 6 units long.

6 is 3 times the amount of 2, meaning the scale factor is 3.

Hope this helps!
