In Springfield, a specific town in the US, 6 women and 25 men earned bachelor degrees in 2000. In 2010, however, 391 women and 4

10 men in that town earned bachelor degrees. Assume that the rate of change was constant between 2000 and 2010.
a. Without using regression, write a system of equations that model the number of bachelor degrees earned by men and women in Springfield as a function of x, the number of years since 2000. Show your work.

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For women, the initial number is 6, constant rate of change is w, number of years is x.

<u>Find the rate of change and work out the required formula:</u>

  • 10w + 6 = 391 ⇒ 10w = 385 ⇒ w = 38.5

<u>Formula:</u>

  • W(x) = 38.5x + 6

<u>Similarly for men, we get:</u>

  • 10m + 25 = 410 ⇒ 10m = 385 ⇒ m = 38.5

<u>Formula:</u>

  • M(x) = 38.5x + 25

A1,a2,a3....a30-each of these 30 sets has 5 elements.b1,b2,....bn-each of these n sets has 3 elements.union of a1,a2...a30=union
zzz [600]
 the number of elements in the union of the A sets is:5(30)−rAwhere r is the number of repeats.Likewise the number of elements in the B sets is:3n−rB
Each element in the union (in S) is repeated 10 times in A, which means if x was the real number of elements in A (not counting repeats) then 9 out of those 10 should be thrown away, or 9x.  Likewise on the B side, 8x of those elements should be thrown away. so now we have:150−9x=3n−8x⟺150−x=3n⟺50−x3=n
Now, to figure out what x is, we need to use the fact that the union of a group of sets contains every member of each set.  if every element in S is repeated 10 times, that means every element in the union of the A's is repeated 10 times.  This means that:150 /10=15is the number of elements in the the A's without repeats counted (same for the Bs as well).So now we have:50−15 /3=n⟺n=45
