The following function represents exponential growth or decay.
P= 2.9(1.05)^t

a. The initial quantity is :_______________
b. The initial quantity is :__________
c. Is the quantity growing or decaying?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The initial quantity is 2.9.

b) The initial quantity is 2.9.

c) The multiplier is 1.05 > 1, and thus, the quantity is growing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equations:

Have the following format:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(k)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the multiplier.

If k > 0, the quantity is growing.

If k < 0, the quintity is decaying.

In this question:

[tex]P(t) = 2.9(1.05)^t[/tex]

a, b. The initial quantity is

P(0). So

[tex]P(0) = 2.9(1.05)^0 = 2.9*1 = 2.9[/tex]

The initial quantity is 2.9.

c. Is the quantity growing or decaying?

The multiplier is 1.05 > 1, and thus, the quantity is growing.

Find the value of x and the value of y.​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=7,\\y=4\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw an auxiliary line in the trapezoid forming a triangle and a rectangle. The dimensions of the rectangle are 3 x 4, so the length of the auxiliary line must be 4.

The auxiliary line also creates a 45-45-90 triangle. The auxiliary line itself makes up one leg of the triangle, and since we know it is 4, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find y:

[tex]4^2+4^2=y^2,\\y^2=32,\\y=\sqrt{32}=\boxed{4\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

The length of x can be found by adding the bottom leg of the 45-45-90 triangle and the bottom dimension of the rectangle:

[tex]x=4+3=\boxed{7}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

There is either No Answer or

B See if the computer or your maker will take B, but the real answer is that there is no answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime polynomials cannot be factored.

x^2 + 4 can't be factored.

x^2 - 4 can be factored and is not prime

x^2 - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)

A) is not prime

3x^2(x + 1) - 2(x + 1)       x + 1 is a common factor

(3x^2 - 2)(x + 1)

B) Not sure. I'll look at the rest. It has a common divisor (x - 1) which turns the result into 0. I don't think you've likely taken this yet, but the answer is        (x - 1)(3x^2 + x + 1), so although this one is not prime, it is not done the same way as the other three. It likely is the answer, but I sure would be tempted to report it to your instructor.

C) 3x^2(x + 1) - 2(x + 1)   x + 1 is a common factor. C is not the answer.

D D is done the same way that A and C are done.

4x^2(x + 1) - 3(x + 1) and x + 1 is a common factor.

Answer:

a. m<B = 100°

b. m<L = 55°

c. Scale factor = 9/11

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Similar triangles have their three corresponding angles congruent to each other, while the ratio of their corresponding sides are proportional to each other.

Since ∆ABC ~ ∆GLJ, therefore,

<A = <G,

<B = <J

<C = <L

m<J = 100° (given)

Therefore,

m<B = m<J = 100°

m<B = 100°

b) m<A = m<G

m<A = 25° (given)

Therefore,

m<A = m<G = 25°

m<G = 25°

m<L = 180° - (m<J + m<G)

Substitute

m<L = 180° - (100° + 25°)

m<L = 55°

c) scale factor of smaller triangle to the larger = side length of smaller triangle / corresponding side length of bigger triangle

Scale factor = AB/GJ

Substitute

Scale factor = 18/22

Simplify

Scale factor = 9/11

When the mean value of the dependent variable is independent of variation in the independent variable, the slope of the regression line is:________

Answers

Answer:

zero

Step-by-step explanation:

The optimally fitted straight line via the locations and points on a graph is determined via linear regression. You may use regression equations to see if your data can indeed be fitted into a formula. If you want to create assumptions from your data, either future forecasts or indicators of previous behavior, using the Regression equation is highly beneficial.

The regression line is expressed as:

[tex]Y_i = a +bx_i[/tex]

where;

[tex]Y_i[/tex] = dependent variable

a = intercept

b = slope

[tex]x_i[/tex] = independent variable

So, when [tex]Y_i[/tex] is independent of the variation of [tex]x_i[/tex], it means that [tex]Y_i[/tex] does not linearly depend on [tex]x_i[/tex] . Thus, the slope of the regression will be zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression equation :

y = 31.6 + 10.9x

x = the number of years of study ;

y = the grade on the test.

The predicted is y which is also the same as the response variable, hence, the response variable is grade on the test

The predictor variable is x, which is the independent variable, which is the number of years of study.

From. The regression output given ;

The slope which is the Coefficient of the predictor variable is 10.9 which means that for every unit change in number of years of study, the grade on test increases by 10.9

The intercept which is the constant value, 31.6, means, the least a person can get in the get in grade is 31.6 (at x = 0)

Since this is a square, the sides are equal. Thankfully the area of 1 square is a perfect square so the length of one side of the square is a full number, which is 9. All of the squares are congruent as shown in the diagram so we simply add every length together (there are 12 sides, each side is 9 inches).

Why do you think using computer software to do forecasting calculations is almost necessary if you are changing the number of time periods for a moving average or the alpha value for an exponential smoothing calculation

Answers

Answer:

There are two major methods of forecasting

One is the Causal method and the 2nd one is the times series method

Causal method mainly tries to find out cause and effect relation between variable and various factors impacting that variable while the time series method infuences the utilization of the historical data and mainly focus to forecast based on the trend present. It simply ignores the other variables. It just tries to give an idea of a trend, it can't predict the impact of other variables as in causal method.

Linear regression analysis can be utilized in both sort of estimating technique. By linear regression analysis we can anticipate effect of different factor on factor variable. It anticipate the pattern, yet additionally gives an idea about connection among variable and different elements affecting it. That is the reason Linear regression is considered as best technique for forecasting.  

Presently, going to the next part of this inquiry, Time period utilized in moving normal is settled based on fluctuation showing up in how much period, to smoothen out the variation. Also, Alpha value is chosen dependent on the time span to smoothen out the variation in the information. Changing of time-frame or distinctive alpha will make estimation complex. And furthermore, it will make computation more probabilistic as opposed to deterministic which may create mistake whenever done by manual calculation. That is the reason program are important in such sort of computation
