Answer:
- see attached for a graph
- 2006: 8,194
- no x-intercepts
- horizontal asymptote: y = 10,350; no vertical asymptotes
- 2015: 10,084
- no information on Exercise 5
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>The graph is attached
__
<h3>b)</h3>The value for 2006 is shown in the table for x=6: 8,194.
__
<h3>c)</h3>The graph does not cross y=0. It has a minimum of about 7392.
__
<h3>d)</h3>The denominator is never zero, so there are no vertical asymptotes. The horizontal asymptote is the ratio of the x^2 coefficients, 414/0.04 = 10,350.
__
<h3>e)</h3>The value of the function for x=15 is 10,084. The number of women in the Marines in 2015 is modeled as 10,084.
__
<h3>f)</h3>No information is provided regarding Exercise 5 or its answer.
