Concept explainers
Short answer exercises: Exercises 1-10 focus on the basic ideas, definitions, and vocabulary of this chapter. Their answers arc short (a single sentence or drawing), andyou should be able to do them with little or no computation. However, they vary indifficulty, so think carefully before you answer.

(Source: U.S. Census Bureau)(a) Use the model to complete the table. (b) According to the model, when will the populationof Horry County reach 360,000?(c) Do you think the model is valid for long-termpredictions of the population? Explain.arrow_forward

(For example, u=2 if unemployment increases from 4% to 6%.) Okun's law states that y=3.5-2u. (a) What is the meaning of the number 3.5 in Okun's law? (b) What is the effect on national production of a year when unemployment rises from 4% to 8%? (c) What change in the unemployment rate corresponds to a year when production is the same as the year before?Enter the exact answer as a positive value. (d) What is the meaning of the coefficient -2 in Okun's law?arrow_forwardSolve using differential equation methods. The temperature outside is currently 68 degrees. A 120-degree beverage is taken outside. It drops down to 100 degrees after 10 minutes. How long will it take it to reach 90 degrees?arrow_forward
- When a drug is administered orally it takes some time before the blood concentration reaches its maximum level. After that time, concentration levels decrease. When 500 milligrams of procainamide is administered orally, one model for a particular patient gives blood concentration C, in milligrams per liter, after t hours as C = 2.65(e-09-e-⁹). What is the maximum blood-level concentration, and when does that level occur? (Round your answers to two decimal places.) maximum 1.49 concentration x mg/L 0.12 xhr timearrow_forwardSolve differential equation.
