- Using the model in Example 6, estimate the number of cases of flu on day 15.arrow_forwardStock Market The week of September 15, 2008 was one of the most volatile weeks ever for the US stock market. The closing numbers of the Dow Jones Industrial Average each day were: What was the overall change for the week? Was it positive or negative?arrow_forwardDepreciation Once a new car is driven away from the dealer, it begins to lose value. Each year, a car loses 10% of its value. This means that each year the value of a car is 90% of the previous year’s value. If a new car was purchased for $20,000, the value at the end of the first year would be $20000(0.90) and the value of the car after the end of the second year would be $20000(0.90)2. Complete the table shown below. What will be the value of the car at the end of the eighth year? Simplify the expression, to show the value in dollars.arrow_forward
- Carbon Dating Refer to Example 2. A sample from a refuse deposit near the Strait of Magellan had 60 of the carbon-14 found in a contemporary living sample. How old was the sample? Example 2: Carbon Dating Carbon-14 is a radioactive form of carbon that is found in all living plants and animals. After a plant or animal dies, the carbon-14 disintegrates. Scientists determine the age of the remains by comparing its carbon-14 with the amount found in living plants and animals. The amount of carbon-14 present after t years is given by the exponential equation A(t)=A0ekt with k=[(ln2)/5600].arrow_forwardPrinter Failure The lifetime of a printer costing 200 is exponentially distributed with mean of 2 years. The manufacturer agrees to pay a full refund to a buyer if the printer fails during the first year following its purchase, and a one-half refund if it fails during the second year. If the manufacture sells 100 printers, how much should it expect to pay in refunds? Choose one of the following.

- Botany A group of Tasmanian botanists have claimed that a Kings holly shrub, the only one of its species in the world, is also the oldest living plant. Using carbon-14 dating of charcoal found along with fossilized leaf fragments, they arrived at an age of 43,000 years for the plant, whose exact location in south-west Tasmania is being kept a secret. What percent of the original carbon-14 in the charcoal was present? Source: Science.arrow_forwardBox Office Hits The table below shows the highest grossing movie of the given year.
