The median price, P, of a home rose from $50 thousand in 1980 to $150 thousand in 2000. Let t be the number of years since 1980.

If instead the housing prices increased exponentially, find an equation of the form P = Poa t to represent housing prices. Again, P is measured in thousands. (Round your answer for a to 6 decimal places.)

Answer: P=50,000(1.056467)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the function that shows the price of home after t years,

P=P_0(a)^t

Where,

P_0 is the initial price of home,

a is the growth factor,

t is the time.

Here, The Initial price of home,

P_0 = $ 50,000

P = $ 150,000

Time since 1980, t = 20 years.

Thus, 150,000=50,000(a)^{20}

3=(a)^{20}

a=(3)^{1/20} =1.05646730855\approx 1.056467

Thus, the complete function that shows the price of home after t years,

P=50,000(1.056467)^t

150,000 = 50000a^20
a^20 = 150000/50000 = 3
a = 20th root of 3 = 1.056467

Required equation is P = 50000(1.056467)^t

Answer:

Only the mean increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the total divided by the number of scores, and since adding 21 will increase the total score significantly, the mean increases.

The median is still 7.

Solve for Y (5y + 2)(y-1) = 0
finlep [7]

Answer:

y = -2/5 or y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(5y + 2)(y-1) = 0

(5y+2) = 0

Subtract 2 on both sides.

5y = -2

Divide 5 into both sides.

y = -2/5

(y - 1) = 0

Add 1 on both sides.

y = 1
