Because 50% of something means half (because 100-50=50), he would have to make the number of girls and boys equal. Since there are 21 girls, he has to make it so there are also 21 boys.
So, if we know that 21-15=6, this means he would have to add 6 boys to the club if he wants the girls and boys equal.

A survey of 250 homeless persons showed that 14 were veterans. Find a point estimate for the population proportion of homeless p
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

\hat p =\frac{14}{250}= 0.056

And for this case that represent the 5.6% of the homeless persons who are veterans

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in a survey of 250 homeless persons 14 were veterans. We can find the estimated proportion of homeless persons who are veterans with the following formula:

\hat p =\frac{X}{n}

The last one is an unbiased estimator of the true population proportion p

And replacing the info given we got:

\hat p =\frac{14}{250}= 0.056

And for this case that represent the 5.6% of the homeless persons who are veterans

Jill has been watching the squirrels that live in her neighborhood. The number of squirrels changes each week. n f(n). 1 8. 2 12
qaws [65]

Answer: D) f(n)=8(1.5)^{n-1}


Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table we can see that this is not representing a linear function as the rate of change is not constant.

So it can be exponential growth function A(b)^{n-1},  where A is the initial amount , b is the multiplicative rate of growth and n is the time period in weeks.

Now here at n=1 , f(n)=8

Therefore, A=8

Now, for n=2

f(2)=8(b)^{2-1}\\\Rightarrow12=8b\\\Rightarrow\ b=\frac{12}{8}\\\Rightarrow\ b=1.5

By substitute the values of A and b in the above equation, we get the equation f(n)=8(1.5)^{n-1}

Therefore, the function best shows the relationship between n and f(n) is

f(n)=8(1.5)^{n-1}, where n is the number of weeks.

Answer: See the answers below.

The first equation that needs to be solve is: 10 = -16t^2 + 18
If you use the quadratic equation, you will get 0.707 seconds.

For the second equation, you need to solve 0 = -16t^2 + 18.
If you use the quadratic equation, you will get 1.061 seconds.

No, the rate of change is not constant because this is a quadratic equation.
