Sports The ordered pairs below give the winning times (in seconds) of the women’s 100-meter freestyle in the Olympics from 1984 through 2012. 1984,55.92 2000,53.83 1988,54.93 2004,53.84 1992,54.64 2008,53.12 1996,54.50 2012,53.00 (a) Sketch a scatter plot of the data. Let y represent the winning time (in seconds) and let t=84 represent 1984. (b) Sketch the line that you think best approximates the data and find an equation of the line. (c) Use the regression feature of a graphing utility to find the equation of the least squares regression line that fits the data. (d) Compare the linear model you found in part (b) with the linear model you found in part (c).
Grade Point Average In many universities students are given grade points for each credit unit according to the following scale: A4 points B3 points C2 points D1 points F0 points For example, a grade of A in a 3-unit earns 43=12 grade points and grade points and a grade of B in a 5-unit course earns 35=15 grade points. A student’s grade point average (GPA) for these two courses is the total number of grade points earned divided by the number of units; in this case the GPA is (12+15)/8=3.375 . (a) Find a formula for a GPA of a student who earns a grade A in a units of course work, B in b units; C in c units, D in d units, and F in f units. (b) Find a GPA of a student who has earned a grade of A in two-units courses. B in one 4-unit course, and C in three 3-unit courses.
Pharmacology The percent p of prescriptions filled with generic drugs at CVS Pharmacies from 2008 through 2014 (see figure) can be approximated by the model pt=2.77t+45.2,8t111.95t+55.9,12t14 where t represents the year, with t=8 corresponding to 2008. Use this model to find the percent of prescriptions filled with generic drugs in each year from 2008 through 2014.
Market supply The following table shows the quantity S of wheat, in billions of bushels, that wheat supplies are willing to produce in a year and offer for sale at a price P, in dollars per bushel. S = quantity of wheat P = price 1.0 1.35 1.5 2.40 2.0 3.45 2.5 4.50 In economics, it is customary to plot S on the horizontal axis and P on the vertical axis, so we will think of S as a variable and of P as a function of S. a. Show that these data can be modeled by a linear function, and find its formula. b. Make a graph of the linear formula you found in part a. This is called the market supply curve. c. Explain why the market supply curve should be increasing. Hint: Think about what should happen when the price increases. d. How much wheat would suppliers be willing to produce in a year and offer for sale at a price of 3.90 per bushel?
