Modeling Alzheimer’s disease As the baby boomer generation ages and the proportion of the U.S. population over age 65 increases, the number of Americans with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia is projected to grow each year. The table below gives the millions of U.S. citizens age 65 or older with Alzheimer’s for selected years from 2000 and projected to 2050.
(a) Find the exponential function that models the data, with x equal to the number of years past 2000 and y equal to the millions of Americans with Alzheimer’s.
(b) Is the model in part (a) an exponential growth or exponential decay function?
(c) Graph the model and the data on the same axes.
(d) How many Americans are projected to have Alzheimer’s in 2060?
Year | 2000 | 2010 | 2020 | 2030 | 2040 | 2050 |
Millions | 4.5 | 5.1 | 5.7 | 7.7 | 11.0 | 13.2 |

- dent Application X GA spinner is divided into five cox | + 9/26583471/4081d162951bfdf39e254aa2151384b7 A spinner is divided into five colored sections that are not of equal size: red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. The spinner is spun several times, and the results are recorded below: Spinner Results Color Frequency Red 5 Blue 11 Green 18 Yellow 5 Purple 7 Based on these results, express the probability that the next spin will land on purple as a fraction in simplest form.
