Population growth Exercise 12.57 about U.S. population growth showed a predicted growth rate of 13% per decade.
- a. Show that this is equivalent to a 1.23% predicted growth per year.
- b. Explain why the predicted U.S. population size (in millions) x years after 1900 is 81.137(1.0123)x
12.57 U.S. population growth The table shows the approximate U.S. population size (in millions) at 10-year intervals beginning in 1900. Let x denote the number of decades since 1900. That is, 1900 is x = 0, 1910 is x = 1, and so forth. The exponential regression model fitted to y = population size and x gives
Source: U.S. Bureau of the Census.
- a. Show that the predicted population sizes are 81.14 million in 1900 and 323.3 million in 2010.
- b. Explain how to interpret the value 1.1339 in the prediction equation.
- c. The
correlation equals 0.98 between the log of the population size and the year number. What does this suggest about whether the exponential regression model is appropriate for these data?
