Answer: Option B is correct

The expression to estimate the population of the country in 2005 is given by

P=145e^{20k}\\

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

In 1985, there was population of 145 millions.

Similarly,

In 1995, there was a population of 190 million .

Use the formula,

P=Ae^{kt}\\

where A denotes the initial population and t denotes the number of years.

So, the expression becomes

P=145e^{20k}\\

∵ time period between 1985 to 2005 is 20 years.

So we take t=20 years.

So, the expression to estimate the population of the country in 2005 is given by

P=145e^{20k}\\

A recent research study randomly divided participants into groups who were given different levels of Vitamin E to take daily. On
horrorfan [7]

Answer: D. To produce treatment groups with similar characteristics

Step-by-step explanation:

By using randomization in sampling, the Sample would be more representative of the Population it is based off of because different demographic characteristics may be picked.

This leads to a situation where the groups have similar characteristics between themselves thereby making it easier for comparison. For example, Group 1 would have certain types of people that will be represented in Group 2 and Group 3 as well. That way the effects of the drug can be properly studied as it affects different people. For instance, say there are 4 obese people in a sample of 10, instead of group one having all obese people, randomization may be able to give group one, 2 obese people and 2 obese people to group 2 as well. That way when comparing, the effects of the drug on the two groups is easier to be compared because the two groups have similar people.

In 2009 the number of vehicle sales in the United States was 10,002 thousand and in 2013 it was 17,884 thousand.a. [3 pts] Deter
anygoal [31]

Answer:

1970.5 thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Vehicle sales in 2009 = 10,002 thousand

Vehicle sales in 2013 = 17,884 thousand

Required

Determine the average rate of change;

From the given parameters, it can be seen that the number of vehicles is a function of year

Let x represent the years and y represent the number of vehicles;

Such that;

x_1 = 2009;\ y_1 = 10,002

x_2 = 2013;\ y_2 = 17,884

The rate of change is calculate as follows;

m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}

m = \frac{10002 - 17884}{2009 - 2013}

m = \frac{-7882}{-4}

m = \frac{-7882}{-4}

m = 1970.5

Hence, the average rate of change is 1970.5 thousand
