In 2003 a town’s population was 1431. By 2007 the population had grown to 2134. Assume the population is changing linearly.How m

sergiy2304 [10]

We will have the following:

First, we will have that the population change by:

$\Delta P=2134-1431\Rightarrow\Delta P=703$

So, the population changed by 703 people.

It took the follwoing number of years to change from 1431 to 2134:

$\Delta y=2007-2003\Rightarrow\Delta y=4$

So, it took 4 years to changes from 1431 to 2134.

$m=\frac{2134-1431}{2007-2003}\Rightarrow m=175.75$

The average population growth per year is of 175.75 people per year.

The population in 2000 would have been:

$P_{2000}=\frac{2000\cdot1431}{2003}\Rightarrow P_{2000}=1428.856715\ldots$

$\Rightarrow P_{2000}\approx1429$

So, the population in 2000 would have been approximately 1429 people.

We will have that the equation for the population would be:

$P=(\frac{2134-1431}{2007-2003})t+1429\Rightarrow P=\frac{703}{4}t+1429$

So, the equation would be:

$P=175.75t+1429$

Now, we predict the number of people of the town in 2014:

$P_{2014}=175.75(14)+1429\Rightarrow P_{2014}=3889.5$

$\Rightarrow P_{2014}\approx3890$

So, there will be approximately 3890 people of the town in 2014.

Estimate the product 8.91 × 34,871.081

aleksklad [387]

The way I would do it is by rounding 8.91 up to 9 and I would round 34,871.081 up to 35,000.
9*35,000=315,000

Hopefully I was able to help in some way.

A butcher has 10 3/4 pounds of ground beef that will be priced at 3.40 dollars per pound. He divides the meat into 8 equal packa

spin [16.1K]

Well we know that 10 and 3/4 is equivalent to 10.75. If we divide the meat into 8 equal packages we have to divide 10.75 by 8. Dividing 10.75 by 8 gives us 1.34375 pounds of meat per package. If we take that, and multiply it by our given value of $3.40 per pound, we end up getting $4.57 a package.

What can you tell about the mean of eachdistribution

erik [133]

Answer:

In a discrete probability distribution of a random variable X, the mean is equal to the sum over every possible value weighted by the probability of that value; that is, it is computed by taking the product of each possible value x of X and its probability p(x), and then adding all these products together, giving. .
