- Life Expectancy Versus Health Care Spending One article shows a relationship between per capita health care spending h, in thousands of U.S. dollars per person per year, and life expectancy E, in years. The following formula is adapted from that article: E=72.23+3.85h0.37h2 We should point out that this article includes no justification for the type of model used. a.Plot the graph E versus h. Include spending levels from 1000 to 9000 per person per year so a horizontal span of 1 to 9. b. According to this model, what health care expenditure corresponds to maximum longevity? Round your answer in thousands of dollars per person per year to two decimal places. c.What optimum life expectancy is given by this model? For comparison, in 2011, in the United States, per capita health care spending was 8745 and life expectancy was 78.7 years.arrow_forwardConstant Velocity When the graph of directed distance is a straight line, what can be said about the graph of velocity?arrow_forwardUsing your graphing calculator, make a scatter plot of the data from the table.

- The table shows the temperatures y (in degrees Fahrenheit) in a city over a 24-hour period. Let x represent the time of day, where x=0 corresponds to 6 a.m. These data can be approximated by the model y=0.026x31.03x2+10.2x+34,0x24. (a) Use a graphing utility to create a scatter plot of the data. Then graph the model in the same viewing window. (b) How well does the model fit the data? (c) Use the graph to approximate the times when the temperature was increasing and decreasing. (d) Use the graph to approximate the maximum and minimum temperatures during this 24-hour period.

Compute r. (Round to 3 decimal places.) As x increases, does the value of r imply that y should tend to increase or decrease? Explain your answer. O Given our value of r, y should tend to remain constant as x increases. Given our value of r, we can not draw any conclusions for the behavior of y as x increases. Given our value of r, y should tend to decrease as x increases. Given our value of r, y should tend to increase as x increases.arrow_forwardI need helparrow_forward
