Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add -3x to put the equation into slope-intercept form.

y = -3x +15

The gradient of the line (slope) is the coefficient of x: -3.

The gradient is -3.

Where does the point (0, - 3) lie?

White raven [17]

This point falls on none of your possible answers.

We can first tell that it falls neither positive or negative in terms of x since the x value is 0.

We can also tell the y term is negative. Therefore, it would fall on the negative y-axis.

The gross domestic product (in billions of dollars) can be approximated by p(t)equals564 plus t left parenthesis 36 t supersc

nirvana33 [79]

We have been given gross domestic product (in billions of dollars) can be approximated by $P(t)=564+t(36t^{0.6}-101)$ .

(a) In this part, we need to compute the derivative of this function:

$P'(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(564+t(36t^{0.6}-103))\\P'(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(564)+\frac{d}{dt}(t(36t^{0.6}-103))\\P'(t)=0+57.6t^{0.6}-103\\$

$P'(t)=57.6t^{0.6}-103$

(b) In this part, we need to find the value of P'(45). So, we will substitute t=45

$P'(45)=57.6(45)^{0.6}-103\\P'(45)=565.3924-103\\P'(45)=462.39$ Billion dollars per year.

(c) P'(45)=462.39 represents that 45 years after 1960, that is, in 2005, the GCP was changing at a rate of 462.39 billion dollars per year.
