How can i calculate the growth rate of the values below

Mathematics
1 answer:
Grace [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  12%

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the growth is ...

  f(t) = (initial value)×(growth multiplier per period)^(number of periods)

where the growth multiplier is often expressed as a percentage added to 1:

  multiplier = 1+r

  growth rate = r

__

This equation has two unknowns:

  • initial value
  • growth multiplier

In order to find these, you can make use of two of the supplied data points. I like to choose the ones that are farthest apart, as they tend to average out any errors due to rounding.

Clearly, the table tells you the initial value is 210. If you don't believe, you can put the numbers in the equation to see that:

  f(0) = (initial value)×(growth multiplier)^0

  210 = (initial value)×1

  (initial value) = 210

__

Using the last data point, we get ...

  f(7) = 210×(growth multiplier)^7

  464 = 210×(growth multiplier)^7 . . . . . . . . . fill in table value

  2.209524 = (growth multiplier)^7 . . . . . . .  divide by 210

You can solve this a couple of ways. My calculator is able to take the 7th root, so I can use it to find ...

  \sqrt[7]{2.209524}=\text{(growth multiplier)}\\1.119916\approx \text{(growth multiplier)}

Alternatively, you can use the 1/7 power:

  2.209524^(1/7) = (growth multiplier)

Another way to solve this is to use logarithms:

  log(2.209524) = 7×log(growth multiplier) . . . . . take the log

  log(2.209524)/7 = log(growth multiplier) . . . . . divide by 7

  0.04918553 ≈ log(growth multiplier)

  growth multiplier = 10^0.04918553 ≈ 1.11992 . . . . take the antilog

So, our growth multiplier is ...

  1 + r ≈ 1.11992

  r ≈ .11992 ≈ 12.0%

The rate of growth is about 12% in each period.

_____

Collapsing all of that to a single calculation:

  growth rate = (464/210)^(1/(7-0)) -1 ≈ 12.0%

6.1.3 quiz pythagorean theorem question 9
Olegator [25]

Answer: 14.73

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is a right angle triangle.

EF^2 + DF^2 = ED^2

The hypotenuse is |ED| while the two shorter legs are |EF| and |DF|.

We can then apply the Pythagoras Theorem to find the length of EF.

(EF)^2 + (DF)^2 = (ED)^2

(EF)^2 + (12)^2 = (19)^2

(EF)^2 + 144 = 361

(EF)^2 = 361 - 144

(EF)^2 = 217

EF = 14.73

Every evening, two weather stations issue weather forecast for the next day. The weather forecasts are independent. On average,
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The probability is 0.6923

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call R the event that the next day rains, S the event that the next day has sunny weather, R2 the event that the station 2 predicts rain and S1 the event that station 1 predict sunny weather.

The probability that the next day has sunny weather given that station 1 predicts sunny weather for the next day and station 2 predicts rain is calculated as:

P(S/S1∩R2) = P(S∩S1∩R2)/P(S1∩R2)

Where P(S1∩R2) = P(R∩S1∩R2) + P(S∩S1∩R2)

So, the probability P(R∩S1∩R2) that the next day rains, Station 1 predicts sunny weather and Station 2 predicts Rain is calculate as:

P(R∩S1∩R2) = 0.5 * 0.1 * 0.8 = 0.04

Because 0.5 is the probability that the next day rains, 0.1 is the probability that station 1 predicts sunny weather given that it is going to rain and 0.8 is the probability that station 2 predicts rain given that it is going to rain.

At the same way, the probability P(S∩S1∩R2) that the next day has sunny weather, Station 1 predicts sunny weather and Station 2 predicts Rain is calculate as:

P(S∩S1∩R2) = 0.5 * 0.9 * 0.2 = 0.09

Then, the probability P(S1∩R2) that station 1 predicts sunny weather for the next day, whereas station 2 predicts rain is:

P(S1∩R2) = 0.04 + 0.09 = 0.13

Finally, P(S/S1∩R2) is:

P(S/S1∩R2) = 0.09/0.13 = 0.6923
