The rate of change in sales for Garmin from 2008 through 2013 can be modeled by

Mathematics

Zina [86]2 years ago

Answer:

a) The model for the sales of Garmin is represented by S(t) = -\frac{81}{2500}\cdot t^{3} + \frac{267}{250}\cdot t^{2} - 11.9\cdot t + 47.112.

b) The average sales of Garmin from 2008 through 2013 were $ 2.5 billion.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The model for the sales of Garmin is obtained by integration:

S(t) = -0.0972\int {t^{2}} \, dt + 2.136\int {t}\,dt -11.9 \int\,dt

S(t) = -\frac{81}{2500}\cdot t^{3} + \frac{267}{250}\cdot t^{2} - 11.9\cdot t + C (1)

Where C is the integration constant.

If we know that t = 9 and S(t) = 2.9, then the model for the sales of Garmin is:

-\frac{81}{2500} \cdot 9^{3} + \frac{267}{250}\cdot 9^{2}-11.9\cdot (9) + C = 2.9

C = 47.112

The model for the sales of Garmin is represented by S(t) = -\frac{81}{2500}\cdot t^{3} + \frac{267}{250}\cdot t^{2} - 11.9\cdot t + 47.112.

b) The average sales of the Garmin from 2008 through 2013 (\bar{S}) is determined by the integral form of the definition of average, this is:

\bar{S} = \frac{1}{13 - 8} \cdot \int\limits^{13}_{8} {S(t)} \, dt (2)

\bar S = \frac{1}{5}\cdot \int\limits^{13}_{8} {\left[-\frac{81}{2500}\cdot t^{3} + \frac{267}{250}\cdot t^{2}-11.9\cdot t + 47.112  \right]} \, dt

\bar S = \frac{1}{5}\cdot \left[-\frac{81}{10000}\cdot (13^{4}-8^{4}) +\frac{89}{250}\cdot (13^{3}-8^{3}) -\frac{119}{20}\cdot (13^{2}-8^{2}) +47.112\cdot (13-8)   \right]\bar{S} = \frac{1}{5}\cdot (-198.167+599.86-624.75+235.56)

\bar{S} = 2.5

The average sales of Garmin from 2008 through 2013 were $ 2.5 billion.

Help, and if you can give me a step by step explanation
Llana [10]

Answer:

the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

variability !

what does that word tell us ?

it means that there are more individuals differences.

you could also use "accuracy" as the opposite - we are aiming for the mean value ...

imagine some bow and arrow tournament.

who wins ?

the person with the highest accuracy across all the attempts (and that means the lowest variability in the results across all attempts relatively to the target center representing the predefined mean value).

now look at the graphic for neighborhood A.

and then for neighborhood B.

which one has the data points more clustered around the center (where the mean value is going to be) ? this one has lower variability than the one where the data points are having more than one cluster or are even all over the place.

remember, for the variability you have to add all the differences to the mean value. the smaller the differences to the mean value, the smaller the variability.

in neighborhood B almost all data points have a larger difference to the mean value.

so, the variability will be higher here.

A 34-inch piece of wood is 2.4% of a longer piece of wood. How long is the longer piece of wood? Show your work. You can use pro
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Think of this as a proportion: 2.4 is to 100, as 34 is to L ("L" for "Long piece.")

Cross multiply to get 2.4 L = 3400, then divide both sides by 2.4 to be left with

L = 3400/2.4, so

L = 1416.666...

So the longer piece of wood is 1,416.66... inches long.

Hope this helps!!:)

What is the distance between the points (−3, −5) and (−3, −7) ?
mario62 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

d = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

d = √(-3-(-3))²+(-7-(-5))²

d = √ 0+(-2)²

d = √4

d = 2 units
