(a) What was the population in 1970, according to this model? (b) is the graph of this function concave up or concave down? What does this mean? (c) Use numerical or graphical methods to find when the model estimates the population was 94,150,000. (a) According to the model, the population in 1970 was thousands.

- 6. Select the correct graph below of the function: (x) = x*(x + 2)(x – 2). List the x-intercepts. For each, state its multiplicity and why each either crosses the x- axis or simply touches the x-axis in terms of its multiplicity being odd or even. This problem is worth 8 points with 4 points for the graph selection and 4 points for the explanation of the intercepts.arrow_forwardSarah pays a flat rate plus a rate per minute for her phone plan as shown in the graph above.
