Given that a zone has 350 households with access to cars and 295 households without access to cars and the average trip generation rates for each group are 4.0 and 2.0 trips per day, respectively. Assuming that in the future, households will have similar distribution with access and without access to a car, as per the existing situation. There will be an addition of 650 households with a similar distribution of car ownership. Find the growth factor and future trips from that zone.

If during the following year it is predicted that each comedy skit will generate 30 thousand and each musical number 20 thousand, find the maximum income for the year. A television program director must schedule comedy skits and musical numbers for prime-time variety shows. Each comedy skit requires 2 hours of rehearsal time, costs 3000, and brings in 20,000 from the shows sponsors. Each musical number requires 1 hour of rehearsal time, costs 6000, and generates 12,000. If 250 hours are available for rehearsal and 600,000 is budgeted for comedy and music, how many segments of each type should be produced to maximize income? Find the maximum income.
What is the total effect on the economy of a government tax rebate of $500 to each household in order to stimulate the economy if each household will spend of the rebate in goods and services?
Several of the U.S. occupations that are projected to have the fastest job growth during the decade of the 2020’s are in either the medical or the renewable energy sectors of the economy. For example, the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects that “wind turbine service technicians” will be the fastest growing occupation during the decade, with an expected growth rate of 64% after 10 years. “Solar panel installers” is projected to be the third-fastest growing occupation, with an expected growth rate of 51% . Meanwhile, “nurse practitioners” ( projected growth), “occupational therapy assistants” (35% projected growth), and “home health and personal care aides” (34% projected growth) are all among the six occupations projected to grow the fastest. At the beginning of this decade, there were 7,000 wind turbine technicians in the United States. How many are there projected to be by the end of the decade?

The median pay of a solar panel installer was $46,000 per year at the beginning of the decade. Suppose that, due to the increased demand for solar energy the median salary for solar panel installers increases by 11% for each of the…

It is known that in any given year, • 90% of the people in a city move to the suburbs; • 80% of the people in the suburbs do not move to the city. Given an initial city population of 55,000 and an initial suburb population of 77,000, what are the long-term population levels of the city and the suburb?
Total DVD and Blu-ray disc sales in 2009 were $8.72 billion. For the purposes of this problem, you will combine DVD and Blue-ray disk sales into one category of DVD sales. A study by In-Stat predicted that "physical disc sales will decline by $4.7 billion by 2014," and that "streaming, on the other hand, should grow from its current $2.2 billion to $6.3 billion over the same time period (2009–2014). d. Write an equation that represents the linear model for streaming videos. Let S = the total sales of streaming videos in billions of dollars, and t = the number of years after 2009. e. In what year do the models predict streaming video sales to exceed DVD sales?

Morning House is a mail-order firm which carries a wide range of rather expensive art objects for homes and offices. It operate problems would be greatly reduced. Since it takes approximately six weeks to receive 90% of the response to a given campaign, an accurate prediction of total sales made as late as the end of the first week of receiving orders would be useful. The first week’s sales and total sales of the last 12 campaigns of the firm are shown below. Can the first week’s sales be used to predict total sales? First week’s Total Campaign Sales Sales 1 32 167 2 20 91 3 114 560 4 66 335 5 18 70 6 125 650 7 83 401 8 65 320 9 94 470 10 5 15 11 39 210 12 50 265 --------------------------------------------
Over the past 40 years, the percentage of homes in the United States with smoke detectors has risen steadily and has plateaued at about 96% as of 2015.† With this increase in the use of home smoke detectors, what has happened to the death rate from home fires? Suppose the following contains 17 years of data on the estimated percentage of homes with smoke detectors and the estimated home fire deaths per million of population. Percentage ofHomes withSmoke Detectors Home Fire Deathsper Millionof Population 0.52 22.8 0.69 20.7 0.76 17.2 0.78 20.4 0.79 19.3 0.84 18.8 0.83 17.5 0.87 16.1 0.88 13.5 0.90 14.3 0.92 14.2 0.94 12.9 0.95 10.8 0.96 10.8 0.97 10.1 0.96 8.3 0.96 8.0 (a) Do you expect a positive or negative relationship between smoke detector use and deaths from home fires? Why or why not? We would expect there would be a ---Select--- negative positive relationship between smoke detector use and deaths from home fires. As more households have…
