Suppose a set of data about the spread (in hundreds of acres) of a food-borne bacteria (after t weeks) in lettuce has the follow

ing percentage rates of change: 0.9%, 1.3%, 1.1%, 1.0%, 1.3%, 1.0%; and the following average rates of change: 2.9, 2.4, 3.7, 3.1, 3.6, 3.2. Based only on the information given, and without doing any calculations, what type of model would you use? Why? (NOTE THAT the information given is not the actual data set. I have calculated the two types of rate of change for you. You should NOT BE CALCULATING ANYTHING!) Comment:What tells you that the relation is best fit by a linear model? Use principles about what kinds of functions have consistency in which types of rates of change?

Answer:

A sinusoidal model would be used

The kind of function that have consistency in the periodic rate of change is the Average rate of changes

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of model that would be used is sinusoidal model and this is because there is periodic change in the values given ( i.e the rate of changes given )

For percentage rate of changes :

starting from 0.9% there is an increase to 1.3% then a decrease to 1.1% and a further decrease to 1% before an increase to 1.3% and another decrease to 1%

For Average rate of changes:

starting from 2.9 there is a decrease to 2.4, then an increase to 3.7 and another decrease to 3.1 followed by an increase to 3.6 and a decrease back to 3.2

This relation ( sinusoidal model ) is best suited for a linear model because there is a periodic rate of change in the functions

The kind of function that have consistency in the period rate of change is the Average rate of changes

An item that originally costs $320 is on sale for 22% off. What is the sale price? Show your work. PLZ SHOW UR WORK!
Mnenie [13.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The answer is $249.60

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

This is a simple question. Firstly you will take the total cost and multiply it by 0.22. The answer to this is 70.4. Take that and subtract it from the total cost because 70 is the discount price. Once subtracted you will get 249.6. In conclusion, the sale price of the item is $249.60.

P.S. I hope this answer helped you in some way or another. If you have any questions you can ask them to me and I will be happy to help you out. I also wanted to add that I have a channel called The Game Rater or soon to be Nitro Studios (based on when you see this). I would really appreciate it if you could check out my channel. If not, I hope this answer helped you and I still appreciate you reading this side note. Thank you.
