The population of Americans age 55 and older as a percentage of the total population is approximated by the function f(t) = 10.72(0.9t + 10)^0.3 (0 <= t < = 20)

where t is measured in years, with t=0 corresponding to the year 2000.

Required:
a. At what rate was the percentage of Americans age 55 and older changing at the beginning of 2002?
b. At what rate will the percentage of Americans age 55 and older be changing in 2017?
c. What will be the percentage of the population of Americans age 55 and older in 2017?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A)

About 0.51% per year.

Part B)

About 0.30% per year.

Part C)

About 28.26%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the population of Americans age 55 and older as a percentange of the total population is approximated by the function:

[tex]f(t) = 10.72(0.9t+10)^{0.3}\text{ where } 0 \leq t \leq 20[/tex]

Where t is measured in years with t = 0 being the year 2000.

Part A)

Recall that the rate of change of a function at a point is given by its derivative. Thus, find the derivative of our function:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = \frac{d}{dt} \left[ 10.72\left(0.9t+10\right)^{0.3}\right][/tex]

Rewrite:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = 10.72\frac{d}{dt} \left[(0.9t+10)^{0.3}\right][/tex]

We can use the chain rule. Recall that:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [u(v(x))] = u'(v(x)) \cdot v'(x)[/tex]

Let:

[tex]\displaystyle u(t) = t^{0.3}\text{ and } v(t) = 0.9t+10 \text{ (so } u(v(t)) = (0.9t+10)^{0.3}\text{)}[/tex]

Then from the Power Rule:

[tex]\displaystyle u'(t) = 0.3t^{-0.7}\text{ and } v'(t) = 0.9[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}\left[(0.9t+10)^{0.3}\right]= 0.3(0.9t+10)^{-0.7}\cdot 0.9[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = 10.72\left( 0.3(0.9t+10)^{-0.7}\cdot 0.9 \right)[/tex]

And simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(t) = 2.8944(0.9t+10)^{-0.7}[/tex]

For 2002, t = 2. Then the rate at which the percentage is changing will be:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(2) = 2.8944(0.9(2)+10)^{-0.7} = 0.5143...\approx 0.51[/tex]

Contextually, this means the percentage is increasing by about 0.51% per year.

Part B)

Evaluate f'(t) when t = 17. This yields:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(17) = 2.8944(0.9(17)+10)^{-0.7} =0.3015...\approx 0.30[/tex]

Contextually, this means the percetange is increasing by about 0.30% per year.

Part C)

For this question, we will simply use the original function since it outputs the percentage of the American population 55 and older. Thus, evaluate f(t) when t = 17:

[tex]\displaystyle f(17) = 10.72(0.9(17)+10)^{0.3}=28.2573...\approx 28.26[/tex]

So, about 28.26% of the American population in 2017 are age 55 and older.

The y-intercept of function fis

Over the interval [2, 4], the average rate of change of function fis
the average rate of change of function g.

Answers

Answer:

Line of symmetry of f is x=2 and the line of symmetry for function g is x=1 as the graph starts repeating itself after x=1. Y intercept is the point at which x is 0, for f it is - 5 and for g it is - 6. Rate of change in interval [2,4] is given by (f(4)-f(2))/2=2 for f and for g it is, (g(4)-g(2))/2=-4

The true statements are:

The line of symmetry for function f is x = 2The line of symmetry for function g is x = 1The y-intercept of function f is -5The y-intercept of function g is -6Over the interval [2, 4], the average rate of change of function f is half the average rate of change of function g.

Line of Symmetry

This is the point where the function is divided into equal halves.

From the figure, the table and graph are divided at points x = 2, and x = 1.

So, the line of symmetry for function f is x = 2 and the line of symmetry for function g is x = 1

Y-Intercept

This is the point where the function has an x value of 0

From the figure, the y values when x = 0 are -5 and -6

So, the y-intercept of function f is -5 and the y-intercept of function g is -6

Average rate of change

This is calculated as:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]

For function f, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{-5 + 9}{4-2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 2[/tex]

For function g, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{2+ 6}{4-2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 4[/tex]

By comparison,

[tex]m_f = 0.5 \times m_g[/tex]

Hence, over the interval [2, 4], the average rate of change of function f is half the average rate of change of function g.

A family has a day of 7 activities planned: shopping, picnic, hiking, swimming, bike ride, video games, and movie. To make it more adventurous they decide to randomly pick the order of the activities out of a hat. Find the probability that bike ride and movie are chosen consecutively, in either order.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Pr= \frac{1}{21}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n(S) = 7[/tex] --- number of games

Required

Probability of bike and movie in consecutive order

This probability is represented as:

[tex]Pr = P(Bike\ and\ Movie) \ or\ P(Movie\ or\ Bike)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Pr = P(Bike\ and\ Movie) \ +\ P(Movie\ or\ Bike)[/tex]

The probability is an illustration of selection without replacement;

So, we have:

[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = P(Bike) * P(Movie)[/tex]

[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{n(Bike)}{n(S)} * \frac{n(Movie)}{n(S) - 1}[/tex] ---- without replacement

Bike and Movie appear in the game list 1 time.

So, the equation becomes

[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{1}{7} * \frac{1}{7 - 1}[/tex]

[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{1}{7} * \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{1}{42}[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]P(Movie\ and\ Bike) = \frac{1}{42}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Pr = P(Bike\ and\ Movie) \ +\ P(Movie\ or\ Bike)[/tex]

[tex]Pr= \frac{1}{42}+\frac{1}{42}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Pr= \frac{1+1}{42}[/tex]

[tex]Pr= \frac{2}{42}[/tex]

[tex]Pr= \frac{1}{21}[/tex]

Answer: 0.0000000015 = 1.5 × 10⁻⁹

Concept:

When converting an integer to scientific notation:

- If the number is ≥1, then count the moves of the decimal point to the right until the number is 0<number<10. The number of moves will be the exponent that is positive.

- For example: If converting 300, since there are two moves until it is left with 0<3<10. Thus, the scientific notation will be 3 × 10²

- If the number is <1, then count the moves of the decimal point to the left until the number is 0<number<10. The number of moves will be the exponent that is negative.

- For example: If converting 0.004, since there are three moves until it is left with 0<4<10. Thus, the scientific notation will be 4 × 10⁻³

Solve:

0.0000000015

The decimal point needs to move 9 times to the left to get a number that is between 0 and 10. The number is 1.5.

Thus, the scientific notion of 0.0000000015 will be 1.5 × 10⁻⁹

Slope is the change in y over the change in x.

Slope = (-4 - 1) / (9 -9) = -5/0 you cannot divide by 0,so the slope is undefined. This means it is a vertical line

Answers

Answer:

To maximize the monthly rental profit, 90 units should be rented out.

The maximum monthly profit realizable is $38,200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, y_{v})[/tex]

In which

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex]

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]y_{v}[/tex].

In this question:

Quadratic equation with [tex]a = -12, b = 2160, c = -59000[/tex]

To maximize the monthly rental profit, how many units should be rented out?

This is the x-value of the vertex, so:

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2160}{2(-12)} = \frac{2160}{24} = 90[/tex]

To maximize the monthly rental profit, 90 units should be rented out.

What is the maximum monthly profit realizable?

This is p(90). So

[tex]p(90) = -12(90)^2 + 2160(90) - 59000 = 38200[/tex]

The maximum monthly profit realizable is $38,200.
