- Americans' trust in government and the media has generally been on a downward trend since pollsters first asked questions on these topics in the second half of the twentieth century. Trust in government hit an all-time low of 14% in 2014, while trust in the media bottomed out at 32% in 2016. The bar graph shows the percentage of Americans trusting in the government and the media for five selected years. Use this information to answer parts a-c. a. Use the information in the graph to estimate the yearly loss in the percentage of people trusting in government. The yearly loss in the percentage of people trusting in government is 36 %. (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.) b. Write a mathematical model that estimates the percentage, P, of people trusting in government x years after 2003. The mathematical model P = estimates the percentage, P, of people trusting in government x years after 2003. (Use integers or decimals for any numbers in the expression.

The table shows these values, and in addition, the total number of heads for the 991st to 1000th tosses. Use this information to answer the questions below. Long Term Relative Frequency 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 Number of Coin Flips Long Term Relative Frequency Number of 991 992 993 994 995 996 997 998 999 1000 Tosses Number of Heads 511 512 513 513 514 515 515 515 515 515 Relative Frequency of Heads 0.5156 0.5161 0.5166 0.5161 0.5166 0.5171 0.5165 0.516 0.5155 0.515 d) Since the coin is fair, on average, approximately half of the tosses should be heads. So when the coin is tossed 1000 times approximately 500 of the tosses should be heads.
