Chapter 1.2, Problem 1E

Minimum Wage The table below is taken from the website of the U.S. Department of Labor. It shows the minimum wage for each decade from 1950 to 2010. The figures are adjusted for inflation and expressed in constant 2012 dollars.

y = Y e a r m = M i n i m u m w a g e
1950 $ 7.01
1960 $ 7.59
1970 $ 9.28
1980 $ 8.46
1990 $ 6.66
2000 $ 6.90
2010 $ 7.67

a. Find the value of m ( 1990 ) .

b. Use functional notation to express the minimum wage in 1985.

c. Use the table to estimate the minimum wage in 1985. (The actual value was $ 7.09 .)

Nominal income refers to an income value that is not adjusted for inflation. Real income adjusts the nominal value for the rate of inflation. Real income per capita is considered a good measure of the buying power of an individual in a particular area because it adjusts for both the number of people in the area and the relative inflation of the area. According to Forbes magazine, the state with the highest annual real income per capita in 2020 is Connecticut with a real per capita income of $68,533. Suppose that the annual real income of individuals in Connecticut follows a normal distribution with a mean of $68,533 and standard deviation of $23,480.   (a) What is the probability that an individual in Connecticut has an annual real income of $54,000 or more? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b)  What is the probability that an individual in Connecticut has an annual real income of $29,000 or less? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)   (c)  What is the probability…

The table shows the inflation-adjusted annual income per person in 1990 and 2011 for each listed country. Which country had the smallest relative increase in annual income per person from 1990 to 2011? What was the smallest relative increase? |1990 2011 |Country A $33,304 $41,451 Country B $23,036 $30,829 Country C $1,986 $7,656 Country D $893 $1,140 Country had the smallest relative increase in annual income per person from 1990 to 2011. It was about %. (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
