The pipe fitting industry had 546.5 thousand jobs in 2015 and is expected to decline at an average rate of 3 thousand jobs per y
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The amount of jobs from fitting industry shall decline in 5.5 percent from 2015 to 2025.

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to the assumption of a yearly average rate, a linear function model shall be used. The expected amount of jobs (n) after a certain amount of years (t) is given by the following formula:

n = n_{o} + \frac{\Delta n}{\Delta t}\cdot t

Where:

n_{o} - Initial amount of jobs in pipe fitting industry, measured in thousands.

\frac{\Delta n}{\Delta t} - Average yearly rate, measured in thousands per year. (A decline is indicated by a negative sign)

If n_{o} = 546.5, t = 2025-2015 = 10\,years and \frac{\Delta n}{\Delta t} = -3\,\frac{1}{years}, then:

n = 546.5+\left(-3\,\frac{1}{year}\right)\cdot (10\,years)

n = 516.5

The percent change in jobs from pipe fitting industry is calculated as follows:

\%n = \left(1-\frac{n}{n_{o}}\right)\times 100\,\%

\% n = \left(1-\frac{516.5}{546.5}\right)\times 100\,\%

\%n = 5.5\,\%

The amount of jobs from fitting industry shall decline in 5.5 percent from 2015 to 2025.

What is the inverse of y = 16x^2 + 1
tankabanditka [31]
X = 16y^2 + 1
x - 1 = 16y^2
(x - 1)/16 = y^ 2
( (x-1) / 16 ) ^1/2 = y
( (x-1) ^ 1/2 ) / 4 = y

4 triangles = 4 x 2 = 8

Octagon + 4 triangles forms a square: 10 x 10 = 100

Octagon: 100 - 8 = 92
