Answer: The data set is missing therefore I will give you a more general answer

answer : The mean value will shift ( to the right ) by 20

Step-by-step explanation:

when a number is added to each data value in a data set the mean value will shift ( to the right ) likewise the mode, and Median by the same amount that was added to the data set . but the range and IQR will remain unchanged

A population of insects grows exponentially, as shown in the table. Suppose the increase in population continues at the same rat

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer-

The insect population at the end of week 11 is 1730.

Solution-

A population of insects grows exponentially.

The general form of exponential function is,

$y=ab^x$

Where,

a, b are constants.

Putting the data given in the table, in the the equation in order to get the values of a, b

At (0, 20)

$\Rightarrow 20=ab^0$

$\Rightarrow a\cdot (1)=20$

$\Rightarrow a=20$

Now the exponential function becomes,

$y=20b^x$

At (1, 30)

$\Rightarrow 30=20b^1$

$\Rightarrow 20b=30$

$\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{30}{20}$

$\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{3}{2}$

Now the equation becomes,

$y=20(\frac{3}{2})^x$

For calculating the number of insects at the end of the 11th week, putting x=11, so

$y=20(\frac{3}{2})^{11}$

$=1729.95 \approx 1730$
