What was the average rate of change of population (a) between 2002 and 2004, and (b) between 2002 and 2006?arrow_forwardTable 6 shows the year and the number ofpeople unemployed in a particular city for several years. Determine whether the trend appears linear. If so, and assuming the trend continues, in what year will the number of unemployed reach 5 people?arrow_forward
- Please typing answer onlyarrow_forwardHere is a timeplot of each monthly load factor for domestic flights for 2002 to 2017 along with a lowess smooth Answer parts a and b. A Click the icon to view the timeplot. Timeplot a) Describe the patterns you see in this plot. O A. The load factors have been increasing at a constant rate. OB. The load factors have been decreasing at a constant rate 82.5 Oc. The load factors have been increasing steadily O D. The load factors have been decreasing steadily. 75.0 b) Do you expect the overall pattern to continue for another decade? Why or why not? 67.5 O A. No. These are percentages, so they can't exceed 100% Moreover, we have no reason to believe this trend will continue O B. No. These are percentages, so they can't exceed twice the beginning value. Moreover, we have no reason to believe this trend will continue 2004 2008 2012 2016 Decimal Year O C. Yes. These values can keep increasing for exactly another decade because these percentages cannot exceed the decade O D. Yes. These values…arrow_forwardNumber 10 onlyarrow_forward
- 2. In 1990, there were 3,300 births in LaPorte County. In 2010, there were 4,200 births in that same county. (a) 2010. Round to the nearest whole number. Use the data above to compute the average rate of change in population from 1990 to Interpret the average rate of change found in part a in a complete sentence.arrow_forwardThe length of a stalactite (in mm) has been measured at the beginning of every fourth year since the year 2000. The data through 2016 is shown below, where t is in years after the beginning of the year 2000. t Length (mm) O C. 0 92 Use the data to construct a scatter plot, then complete the following. 1) Which of the following best describes the pattern? OA. Exponential (y=a.b*) B. Linear (y = mx + b) Logistic y= (y= C -bx 4 98 1+ ae 8 105 2) Using your calculator and the best of the four methods above, find a model, L(t), that estimates the length of the stalactite t years after 2000. ROUND TO TWO DECIMAL PLACES. L(t) = 3) Use your rounded answer from part 2 to complete the following. ROUND TO TWO DECIMAL PLACES. Acording to the model, at the beginning of the year 2005, the stalactite was approximately mm long, and it was growing at a rate of approximately 12 110 mm per year. 16 117arrow_forwardFind the absolute and percent relative uncertaintyarrow_forward
