Answer: 12.4Million

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the term we are looking for

Therefore;

Population in 2000 = x

Population in 1940 = 7.9Million

Recall population in 2000 is 1.57 times population in 1940

Therefore

1.57 * x = 7.9

x = 7.9m * 1.57

x = 12.403

Rounding off to the nearest tenth in Millions

= 12.4Million

Hope this helps

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

-1.53 , 1.53

Step-by-step explanation:

It is basically asking you to find the percentiles. so for the bottom 6.3% you would type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .063, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you -1.53.

for the upper 6.3% you have to take 1-.063=.937 to get the upper percentile. now type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .937, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you 1.53.


I hope I helped :D

The function below models the voltage, in volts, of a certain alternating current after x seconds, where A and b are positive co
Katarina [22]

First of all, we can just ignore A, it has no effect but to vertically stretch our cosine.

If it was only f(x)=cosx, the function would be invertible as long as it's confined between 0 and \pi. Now, the argument of our cosine is not x but bx. It means that it won't stop at \pi, but at \frac{\pi}{b}.

Another way to think about it, "what should i replace x with so I get \pi inside the cosine?"
