The following data gives the approximate population of the world for selected years from 1850 until 2000. Year 1850 1900 1950 1980 2000 Population 1.3 (billions) 1.6 4.4 3 Assume that the population growth can be modeled with an exponential function p = bemx where x is the year and p is the population in billions. Use linearleast-squares regression to determine the constants b and m for which the function best fits the data. Use the equation to estimate the population in the year 1970.

The displacement of a particle that moves along the x-axis is given by x = (-4 + 3t^2)e^-0.25t, consider x to be in feet and t in seconds. Plot the displacement, velocity, and acceleration for the first 20 seconds of motion and determine, both graphically and by your established equation for acceleration, the time at which acceleration is 0. (If the students find it more comfortable, they may choose to graph using excel or any graphing software, solutions, however, must be done manually). Show COMPLETE STEP BY STEP SOLUTION and necessary FIGURES.
An object was left in a room of unknown surrounding temperature. The temperature of the object was summarized below with respect to the time t (in minutes) the object was initially observed. Predict and complete the information, i.e. determine the temperature in Celsius when t= 30 minutes. Put your answer accurate up to four decimal places. When t= 0, the temperature of the object is 30 degrees Celsius. • When t= 10 minutes, the temperature of the object is 32 degrees Celsius. • When t= 20 minutes, the temperature of the object is 33.6 degrees Celsius. • When t= 30 minutes, the temperature of the object is unknown. Assume the system obeys Newton's Law of Cooling and the surrounding temperature of the room did not change.
