Answer:
1222 billion dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total increase from 1960 to 2010, we need to find the growth of each decade and sum them all:
In the period 1960-1970, we have x = 1, and the growth is:

In the period 1970-1980, we have x = 2, and the growth is:

The growth in the following 3 periods are:



So the total growth in the period 1960 - 2010 is:



Rounding to the nearest billion dollars, we have a total of 1222 billion dollars.
Using the given function, it is found that the snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.
<h3>What is the function for the ball's height?</h3>
The height when x feet are traveled is given by:
h(x) = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.
When the height is of 20 meters, we have that h(x) = 20, hence:
20 = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.
0.5x² - 6x + 16 = 0
x² - 12x + 32 = 0
(x - 8)(x - 4) = 0
For the first time: x - 4 = 0 -> x = 4.
The snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.
