- U.S. Population The number of White non-Hispanicindividuals in the U.S. civilian non-institutional population 16 years and older was 153.1 million in 2000and is projected to be 169.4 million in 2050.(Source: U.S. Census Bureau)a. Find the average annual rate of change in population during the period 2000–2050, with the appropriate units.b. Use the slope from part (a) and the population in2000 to write the equation of the line associatedwith 2000 and 2050.c. What does this model project the population to bein 2020?arrow_forwardCell Phones Using the CTIA Wireless Survey for1985–2009, the number of U.S. cell phone subscribers (in millions) can be modeled byy = 0.632x2 - 2.651x + 1.209where x is the number of years after 1985.a. Graphically find when the number of U.S.subscribers was 301,617,000.b. When does the model estimate that the number ofU.S. subscribers would reach 359,515,000?c.

- Complete Part D A recent issue of the AARP Bulletin reported that the average weekly pay for a woman with a high school degree is $520 (AARP Bulletin, January–February, 2010). Suppose you would like to determine if the average weekly pay for all working women is significantly greater than that for women with a high school degree. Data providing the weekly pay for a sample of 50 working women are available in the file named WeeklyPay. These data are consistent with the findings reported in the AARP article. Complete D null hyposthesis: H(o)=520Alternative hypothesis: H(a): greater then 520 sample mean=637.94 the test statistic = 5.62 p-value=0.00 Using a=.05, we would reject the null hypothesis. D. Repeat the hypothesis test using the critical value approach. 582 333 759 633 629 523 320 685 599 753 553 641 290 800 696 627 679 667 542 619 950 614 548 570 678 697 750 569…arrow_forwardThe table shows the amount of money (in billions of dollars)Americans spent on their pets for the years shown below.arrow_forwardPlease explain.

- World Military Expenditure The following chart shows total military and arms trade expenditure from 2011–2020 (t = 1 represents 2011). †A bar graph titled "World military expenditure" has a horizontal t-axis labeled "Year since 2010" and a vertical axis labeled "$ (billions)". The bar graph has 10 bars. Each bar is associated with a label and an approximate value as listed below. 1: 1,800 billion dollars 2: 1,775 billion dollars 3: 1,750 billion dollars 4: 1,730 billion dollars 5: 1,760 billion dollars 6: 1,760 billion dollars 7: 1,850 billion dollars 8: 1,900 billion dollars 9: 1,950 billion dollars 10: 1,980 billion dollars (a) If you want to model the expenditure figures with a function of the form f(t) = at2 + bt + c, would you expect the coefficient a to be positive or negative? Why? HINT [See "Features of a Parabola" in this section.] We would expect the coefficient to be positive because the curve is concave up. We would expect the coefficient to be negative because the…arrow_forwardpart D E 12arrow_forwardYear Home Runs 2001 5458 2002 5059 2003 5207 2004 5451 2005 5017 2006 5386 2007 4957 2008 4878 2009 5042 2010 4613 Find the percentage change from a. 2001 to 2010 b. 2001 to 2005 c. 2006 to 2010 d. 2008 to 2010 2.
