Answer(A):

Given that the population of Minnesota in thousands, t years since 2000 can be represented by equation:

P=37t+4934

P-intercept means value of P when t=0

P=37*0+4934

P=0+4934

P=4934

Hence P-intercept is 4934. Which means that population of Minnesota in year 2000 was 4934.

Answer(B):

t-intercept means value of t when P=0

0=37t+4934

-4934=37t

divide by 37

-4934/37=t

-133.351351351 = t

Hence t-intercept is -4934/37 which is approx -133. Which means that population of Minnesota in year (2000-133) that is in year 1867 was 0.

The series is a convergent p-series with p = 3

<h3>How to know it is a divergent or a convergent series</h3>

We would know that a series is a convergent p series when we have ∑ 1 np. Then you have to be able to tell if the series is a divergent p series or it is a convergent p series.

The way that you are able to tell this is if the terms of the series do not approach towards 0. Now when the value of p is greater than 1 then you would be able to tell that the series is a convergent series.
