Health Insurance Costs The average annual cost (in dollars) for health insurance in the United Stated can be approximated by the function
where
a. Estimate the average cost in 2010.
b. Graph the function g for the period 2006 to 2015.
c. Assuming that the graph remains accurate, what does the shape of the graph suggest regarding the average cost of health insurance?

According to the CDC, the relationship between the median weight of a female child and the age of a female child (from 0 to 36 months) can be modeled approximately by W=7.5+5.9 ln (M+1), where M is the age in months and W is the median weight in pounds.
Part 1. Graph this function in an appropriate window. Make sure to label axes, scale, and all important features of the graph. (I think that this is going to be agraph that goes from the bottom right to the upper left, correct?)
Part 2. Determine W inverse -1 = (28). What does this mean in the given context?
Plot the function ?(?) =1/X
A chemical processing plant must
monitor a certain liquid substance in a
batch of product they make. The
substance is transferred from one tank
into another in the manufacturing
process and the rate of flow must be
tracked. The function h(x) = 20(0.75)^x
describes the height of the liquid in feet
still remaining in the tank t minutes after
the exit valve was tripped.
a. Using the equation above, find the
average rate of change in the height for
the first 3 minutes.
b. Estimate the instantaneous rate of
change in the height at 5 minutes and
illustrate this value on a graph.
c. Interpret your answer to part b. within
the context of the problem.

The prices of diamonds go up as the carat weight increases, but the increase is not smooth. For example, the difference between the size of a 0.99-carat diamond and a 1-carat diamond is undetectable to the naked human eye, but the price of a 1-carat diamond tends to be much higher than the price of a 0.99 diamond. In this question, we use two random samples of diamonds, 0.99 carats and 1 carat, each sample of size 23, and compare the average prices of the diamonds. In order to be able to compare equivalent units, we first divide the price for each diamond by 100 times its weight in carats. That is, for a 0.99-carat diamond, we divide the price by 99. For a 1 carat diamond, we divide the price by 100. The distributions and some sample statistics are shown below I have attached the questions and the chart in the images section.
