Question:

Suppose that the populations of the United States and China both increase by 12 million people in one year. What would be the relative change for each country? Answer to the nearest tenth of a percent (1 decimal place). Make sure that you fill in each answer area before checking "How Did I Do?".

If you assume that the U.S. population is about 300 million, an increase of 12 million would result in a relative change of Number %.

If you assume that China has about 1 billion people, an increase of 12 million would result in a relative change of Number %.

Answer:

The relative change of the United States and China is 4% and 1.2%, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent population with p. So, we have:

United States

\triangle p = 12\ million

p_1 =300\ million

China

\triangle p = 12\ million

p_1 =1\ billion

Required

Determine the relative change for each country

Relative change, C is calculated as:

C = \frac{\triangle p}{p} * 100\%

For United States

C = \frac{12\ million}{300\ million} * 100\%

C = \frac{12}{300} * 100\%

C = \frac{12 * 100}{300}\%

C = \frac{1200}{300}\%

C = 4\%

For China

C = \frac{12\ million}{1\ billion} * 100\%

C = \frac{12}{1000} * 100\%

C = \frac{12* 100}{1000} \%

C = \frac{1200}{1000} \%

C = 1.2\%

The relative change of the United States and China is 4% and 1.2%, respectively.

Iq scores are known to be normally distributed. the mean iq score is 100 and the standard deviation is 15. what percent of the p
kobusy [5.1K]

The 100%-Norm.Dist(value,mean,sd,true) percent of the population has an iq over 115

According to the statement

we have to find that the what percent of the population has an iq over 115.

And from given information,

the mean iq score is 100 and the standard deviation is 15.

And

Normal distribution, is a probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean.

And by use of this formula, we find the percentage of the population has an iq over 115.

Then the result will comes as 100%.

hence, 100%-Norm.Dist(value,mean,sd,true)

So, The 100%-Norm.Dist(value,mean,sd,true) percent of the population has an iq over 115.

Find the equation of a line that is perpendicular line to y = 10x - 45 and goes through (1, 1).
Airida [17]

The line y = 10x - 45 is already written in the y = mx+q form. This means that m is the slope. If two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are the anti-inverse of each other, i.e. their product is -1.

So, our perpendicular line has a slope of -\frac{1}{10}

Finally, we want a line passing through (1,1) with slope -\frac{1}{10}:

y-1 = -\dfrac{1}{10}(x-1) \iff y = -\dfrac{x}{10} + \dfrac{1}{10}+1 = -\dfrac{x}{10} + \dfrac{11}{10}
