Question
Chapter 3.1, Problem 112E
To determine
Whether the statement “Models describing winning times for the Olympic 400 -meter run:
This indicates that winning times have been decreasing more rapidly for women than for men, so if these trends continue, there will be a year when winning times for men and women are the same.” makes sense or does not make sense.

Question #36
World Population The low long-range world population numbers and projections for the years 1995–2150 are given by the equation y = -0.00036x2+0.0385x + 5.823, where x is the number of yearsafter 1990 and y is in billions. During what yearsdoes this model estimate the population to be above6 billion?
Cell Phones Using the CTIA Wireless Survey for1985–2009, the number of U.S. cell phone subscribers (in millions) can be modeled byy = 0.632x2 - 2.651x + 1.209where x is the number of years after 1985.a. Graphically find when the number of U.S.subscribers was 301,617,000.b. When does the model estimate that the number ofU.S. subscribers would reach 359,515,000?c. What does the answer to (b) tell about this model?

- Your cardiac index is your heart's output, in liters of blood per minute, divided by your body's surface area, in square meters. The cardiac index, C(x), can be modeled by 7.644 C(x) = 10 s xs 80, where x is an individual's age, in years. The graph of the function is shown. Use the function to solve Exercises 95–96. 7.644 C(x) = %3D 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 Age 95. a. Find the cardiac index of a 32-year-old.

The bar graph has 10 bars. Each bar is associated with a label and an approximate value as listed below. 1: 1,800 billion dollars 2: 1,775 billion dollars 3: 1,750 billion dollars 4: 1,730 billion dollars 5: 1,760 billion dollars 6: 1,760 billion dollars 7: 1,850 billion dollars 8: 1,900 billion dollars 9: 1,950 billion dollars 10: 1,980 billion dollars (a) If you want to model the expenditure figures with a function of the form f(t) = at2 + bt + c, would you expect the coefficient a to be positive or negative? Why? HINT [See "Features of a Parabola" in this section.] We would expect the coefficient to be positive because the curve is concave up. We would expect the coefficient to be negative because the…arrow_forwardwhat percentage of years will have an annual rainfall of less than 44 inches ? what percentage of years will have an annual rainfall of more than 39 inches ? what percentage of years will have an annual rainfall of between 38 inches and 42 inches mean+ 41.9 standard devitation 6.1arrow_forward

The diversity index in the United States varies widely from region to region, from as high as 81 in Hawaii to as low as 11 in Vermont. The bar graph shows the national diversity index for the United States for four years in the period from 1980 through 2010.The data in the graph can be modeled by the formulaD = 0.005x2 + 0.55x + 34,where D is the national diversity index in the United States x years after 1980. According to the formula, what was the U.S. diversity index in 2010? How does this compare with the index displayed by the bar graph?arrow_forward

- Explain what a time value analysis chart is used for and list the three components within it.arrow_forwardA poultry raiser harvests an average of 300 eggs per day. He has recently experimented with the different types of poultry feeds. As a result, he noticed some fluctuation in the number of eggs laid by the chickens, which is neither clearly higher nor lower than previous weeks. He decides to find out whether there might be a significant change in the number of eggs laid by the chickens. He records his harvest of eggs for 20 days. He finds that the average per day is 290 eggs with a standard deviation of 15. At 5% level of significance, what did the poultry raiser find out?arrow_forwardThe line graphs in Figure show the percentages of marriages ending in divorce based on the wife’s age at marriage.Here are two mathematical models that approximate the data displayed by the line graphs:In each model, the variable n is the number of years after marriage and the variable d is the percentage of marriages ending in divorce.a. Use the appropriate formula to determine the percentage of marriagesending in divorce after 10 years when the wife is over 25 at the time ofmarriage.b. Use the appropriate line graph in Figure to determine the percentageof marriages ending in divorce after 10 years when the wife is over 25 at the time of marriage.c. Does the value given by the mathematical model underestimate or overestimate the actual percentage of marriages ending in divorce after10 years as shown by the graph? By how much?arrow_forward
