Acording to the model, at the beginning of the year 2007, the stalactite was approximately mm long, and it was growing at a rate of approximately 12 103 mm per year. 16 108arrow_forwardThe following data represent the population of a country An ecologist is interested in building a model that describes the population (a) Treating the year as the independent variable and the population as the dependent variable, use a graphing utility to fit a logistic model from the data.

Make a scatter plot in Excel of the data using Years since 1970 and Total Waste in Millions of Tons (Title your graph and label your axes appropriately). How would you best describe the trend? Add an exponential regression model to the data. Write the equation below. Is it a good fit? Explain how you know. Based on the exponential model, what is the growth rate per year? Explain the meaning of the growth rate in the context of the data. Using the exponential model, make a prediction of how much plastic will be in landfills (and the ocean gyres) by Year Years since 1970 Total Waste in Millions of Tons 1970 0 249 1980 10 798 1985 15 1200 1990 20 1740 1995 25 2440 2000 30 3390 2005 35 4600 2010 40 6060 2015 45 7820 Do you think recycling alone will solve this problem (See Q11 and Q12)?
