Concept explainers
a.
To graph: the model and plot the data in the same viewing window using graphing utility.
Given information: The table shows the population P (in hundreds) of an endangered
species from 2011 through 2016.The data can be modeled by;
Year ( t ) | Population, P |
2011 | 6.83 |
2012 | 5.12 |
2013 | 4.38 |
2014 | 3.15 |
2015 | 2.8 |
2016 | 1.76 |
Calculation:
The table data can be written as:
Year ( t ) | Population, P |
1 | 6.83 |
2 | 5.12 |
3 | 4.38 |
4 | 3.15 |
5 | 2.8 |
6 | 1.76 |
The graph of the model and the above table data in the same viewing window is shown below.
b.
To approximate : the population each year from 20011 to 2016 using the model.
Given information:
Calculation:
c.
To compare: the estimated value to the actual data and find is the model a good fit for the data.
Yes, the model a good fit for the data because the difference between the estimated values and actual data is very less.
Given information:
Calculation:
Actual values of data are:
Year ( t ) | Population, P |
2011 | 6.83 |
2012 | 5.12 |
2013 | 4.38 |
2014 | 3.15 |
2015 | 2.8 |
2016 | 1.76 |
Estimated values of data are:
Year ( t ) | Population, P |
2011 | 7 |
2012 | 5.11 |
2013 | 4.01 |
2014 | 3.23 |
2015 | 2.62 |
2016 | 2.13 |
Yes, the model a good fit for the data because the difference between the estimated values and actual data is very less.
This is also clear from above graph of the model with the actual data.
d.
To find: when will the species become extinct according to the model.
Species become extinct in 2023.
Given information:
Calculation:
Species become extinct when p = 0.
Therefore, the Species become extinct in 2010+13=2023.

- Coast Guard Patrol Search Mission The pilot of a Coast Guard patrol aircraft on a search mission had just spotted a disabled fishing trawler and decided to go in for a closer look. Flying in a straight line at a constant altitude of 1000 ft and at a steady speed of 256 ft/s, the aircraft passed directly over the trawler. How fast (in ft/s) was the aircraft receding from the trawler when it was 1400 ft from the trawler? (Round your answer to one decimal places.) 1000 ft 180 × ft/s Need Help?
