To find the rate of change, we must find the amount of people that have changed over a given time period, and then find the unit rate. As 473-23=450 (we can subtract because we have the end number minus the starting number to find the amount changed) students enter over 10 minutes, and we want to find the rate of change for 1 minute, we can divide 450 10 times. As we move the decimal point of a number 1 to the left when dividing by 10, we have 450.00 -> 45.000 after dividing by 10. Therefore, the average rate of change is 45 students per minute. To find how many students will be in the auditorium after 15 minutes of filling, we can use this average rate of change to figure out approximately how many students will enter in 5 minutes. Therefore, as 45 students come in every minute, after 1 minute, 45 more students will come in. After 2, 45+45=45*2=90 students will come in, and so on. Thus, 45*5=225 students will come in after 5 minutes. Since we know that 473 students are in the auditorium after 10 minutes, we can add 225 to 473 to get 698 students after 15 minutes.

Answer:

Part A)

Chorus:

$c(t)=15(1.12)^t$

Band:

$b(t)=2t+30$

Part B)

After 9 years:

The chorus will have about 41 people.

And the band will have 48 people.

Part C)

About approximately 11 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that there are 15 people in the chorus. Each year, number of people in the chorus increases by 12%. So, the chorus increases exponentially.

There are 30 people in the band. Each year, 2 new people join the band. So, the band increases linearly.

Part A)

Since after each year, the number of people in the chorus increases by 12%, the new population will be 112% or 1.12 of the previous population.

So, using the standard form for exponential growth:

$c(t)=a(r)^t$

Where a is the initial population and r is the rate of change.

We will substitute 15 for a and 1.12 for r. Hence:

$c(t)=15(1.12)^t$

This represents the number of people in the chorus after t years.

We are given that 2 new people join the band each year. So, it increases linearly.

Since there are already 30 people in the band, our initial point or y-intercept is 30.

And since 2 new people join every year, our slope is 2. Then by the slope-intercept form:

$b(t)=mt+b$

And by substitution:

$b(t)=2t+30$

This represents the number of people in the band after t years.

Part B)

We want to find the number of people in the chorus and the band after 9 years.

Using the chorus function, we see that:

$c(9)=15(1.12)^9\approx41.59\approx41$

There will be approximately 41 people in the chorus after 9 years.

And using the band function, we see that:

$b(9)=2(9)+30=48$

There will be 48 people in the band after 9 years.

Part C)

We want to determine after approximately how many years will the number of people in the chorus and band be equivalent. Hence, we will set the two functions equal to each other and solve for t. So:

$15(1.12)^t=2t+30$

Unfortunately, it is impossible to solve for t using normal analytic methods. Hence, we can graph them. Recall that graphically, our equation is the same as saying at what point will our two functions intersect.

Referring to the graph below, we can see that the point of intersection is at approximately (10.95, 51.91).

Hence, after approximately 11 years, both the chorus and the band will have approximately 52 people.

Which defines a circle a. Two days with a common endpoint b. A piece of a line with two endpoints c. A piece of a line with one

nordsb [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any point that is co planar with one another and is also equidistant from a given point is a circle. We need it to be co planar, otherwise it would be 3-dimensional and create a sphere. And if they we not all equidistant, they would not make an even circle (it'd be an oval or another shape).

Consider a continuous random variable x, which is uniformly distributed between 65 and 85. The probability of x taking on a valu

madam [21]

We will see that the probability of x taking on a value between 75 to 90 is P = 0.5

<h3>How to get the probability?</h3>

We know that x is a continuous random variable uniformly distributed between 65 and 85.

This means that the probability that x value y in the range is such that:

1 = P(y)*(85 - 65) = P(y)*20

1/20 = P(y).

Now, the probability of x taking a value between 75 and 85 is:

P(75 to 85) = (1/20)*(85 - 75) = 10/20 = 0.5

And the probability between 85 and 90 is zero (because the maximum value that x can take is 85, so this part does not affect).

Then we conclude that the probability of x taking a value between 75 to 90 is:

P(75 to 90) = P(75 to 85) + P(85 to 90) = 0.5 + 0 = 0.5
