1) 16 X 16= 256
2) 17 x 17 = 289
3) 18 x 18 = 324
4) 19 x 19 = 361
the answer is 2 because it's the largest number that is smaller than 300.

The ratio of working-age population to the elderly in the United States (including projections after 2000) is given by the funct
Dovator [93]

Answer:

a) Sketch the graph of the function f. (it is in the attached file)

b) What was the ratio at the beginning of 2006? At the beginning of 2014?

For 2006 the ratio is 3.92

For 2014 the ratio is 3.5

c) Over what years is the ratio constant?

[1995, 2000]

d) Over what years is the decline of the ratio greatest?

[2010, 2030]

Step-by-step explanation:

b) We first need to know in between which function 2006 falls into, so if we start in t=0=1995, then 2006-1995=11, t=11

t=11 fall into:

f(x)=-0.03t+4.25

f(11)=-0.03(11)+4.25=3.92

For 2006 the ratio is 3.92

2014:

Same process that 2006, t=0=1995, then 2014-1995=19, t=19

t=19fall into:

f(x)=-0.075t+4.925

f(19)=-0.075(11)+4.925=3.5

For 2014 the ratio is 3.5

c) The ratio is only constant in the first section of the graph 0≤t<5, since 4.1 is constant. Following the same process for the years in star (b) we have t=0, 1995+0=1995, t=5, 1995+5=2000.

The ratio will be constant between [1995, 2000]

d) For the greatest decline we need to compare slopes. From the line equation we have:

y(x)=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the point the line intersects with the y axis. Here we have:

f(x)=-0.03t+4.25  for 5≤t<15

f(x)=-0.075t+4.925  for 15≤t≤35

So:

m=-0.03 for 5≤t<15

m=-0.075 for 15≤t≤35

If we are measuring the steepness of the decline, we have to compare:

|-0.03| and |-0.075| or 0.03 and 0.075, easily finding that 0.075>0.03

And doing the sames process for the years in question (c):

t=15, 1995+15=2010, and t=35, 1995+35=2030

This means that the biggest decline is between the years:

[2010, 2030]

Brrunno [24]

It would be \frac{10}{38}, or, in simplest form, \frac{5}{19}.

You get this by adding all the marbles to find the total number of marbles. <em>10+7+12+9</em>, which equals <em>38</em>.

You have <u>10 red marbles out of 38 total</u>, so that is represented by \frac{10}{38}!

Ningbo Shipping has issued preferred stock at its $125 per share par value. The stock will pay a $15 annual dividend. The cost o
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The cost of Ningbo Shipping Preferred stock is 12.40%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the cost of Ningbo shipping Preferred stock.

To calculate this, we make use of the following mathematical relation;

The cost preferred stock Kp = Annual dividends/ Issued price-Cost of Issuing

From the question, we identify the following;

Issued price = $125

Annual dividend = $15

Cost of Issuing = $4

Inserting these into the formula we have;

Kp = $15/$125 - $4 = 12.40%

This means that Cost of Ningbo shipping preferred stock is 12.40%
