Answer:

(a) 0.107 million per year

(b) 0.114 million per year

Step-by-step explanation:

A(t) = 11.19(1.009)^t

(a) The average rate of change between 2000 and 2014 is determined by dividing the difference in the populations in the two years by the number of years. In the year 2000, t=0 and in 2014, t=14. Mathematically,

\text{Rate}=\dfrac{A(2014) - A(2000)}{2014-2000}=\dfrac{11.19(1.009)^14-11.19(1.009)^0} {14}

A(0)=\dfrac{12.69-11.19}{14}=\dfrac{1.5}{14}=0.107

(b) The instantaneous rate of change is determined by finding the differential derivative at that year.

The result of differentiating functions of the firm y=a^x (where a is a constant) is \dfrac{dy}{dx}=a^x\ln a. Let's use in this in finding the derivative of A(t).

A\prime(t) = \dfrac{A}{t}=11.19\cdot1.009^t\ln1.009

In the year 2014, t=14.

A\prime(14) =11.19\cdot1.009^14\ln1.009=0.114

What is the range of this piecewise function
White raven [17]

Answer as a compound inequality: -4 \le y < 2

Answer in interval notation:  [-4, 2)

=============================================

Explanation:

The range is the set of all possible y outputs of a function. When dealing with a graph like this, we just look at the highest and lowest points to determine which y values are possible.

The lowest point occurs when y = -4. We include this value. So far we have y \ge -4 which is the same as -4 \le y

The upper ceiling for the y value is y = 2. We can't actually reach this value because of the open hole at (-3,2). So we say that y < 2

Combine -4 \le y and y < 2 to get the compound inequality -4 \le y < 2

This says y is between -4 and 2, including -4 but excluding 2.

To convert this to interval notation, we write [-4, 2) where the square bracket says to include the endpoint and the curved parenthesis says to exclude the endpoint.

The equation for the line g can be written as x-y=9. Line h is parallel to line g and passes through (4,5). What is the equation
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

y = x+1

Step-by-step explanation

The equation in slope intercept form is expressed as y = MX+c

m a the slope

Get the slope of the line

Given the line x-y =9

-y = -x+9

y = x-9

Slope of the line is 1

Since it is parallel to the given line, the slope o the required line is also 1

Substitute m = 1 adnd (4,5) into the point slope form

y-y0 =m(x-x0)

y - 5 = 1(x-4)

y-5 = x-4

y= x-4+5

y = x+1

Hence the required equation is y = x+1

How to factor <br> 49y^{2}-9x^{2}
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

(7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

49y² - 9x² = (7y)² - (3x)²                   {a = 7y ; b - 3x}

               = (7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)

Determine whether the underlined value is a parameter or a statistic. In a national survey on substance abuse comma Modifying 66
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Parameter                                                                                

Step-by-step explanation:

Parameter and statistic:

  • Parameter is a numerical value that describes a population.
  • A sample is a part of the population and always smaller than the population.
  • The statistic is a numerical value that describes a sample.

Population of interest:

College students aged 18 to 22

Parameter:

66.4% reported using alcohol within the past month

Thus, the given is a parameter as it describes a population proportion.

GIVING BRAINLY JUST ANSWER CORRECTLY !!
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

b. never

Explanation:

A fraction is always in the form p/q, where q is not 0; or can be converted in that form (in case of mixed fraction).

A number is said to be irrational, if it cannot be expressed in the form p/q, where q is not 0.
