- Table 6 shows the population, in thousands, of harbor seals in the Wadden Sea over the years 1997 to 2012. a. Let x represent time in years starting with x=0 for the year 1997. Let y represent the number of seals in thousands. Use logistic regression to fit a model to these data. b. Use the model to predict the seal population for the year 2020. c. To the nearest whole number, what is the limiting value of this model?arrow_forwardTable 2 shows a recent graduate’s credit card balance each month after graduation. a. Use exponential regression to fit a model to these data. b. If spending continues at this rate, what will the graduate’s credit card debt be one year after graduating?arrow_forwardThe population P (in millions) of Texas from 2001 through 2014 can be approximated by the model P=20.913e0.0184t, where t represents the year, with t=1 corresponding to 2001. According to this model, when will the population reach 32 million?arrow_forward
- 2) An initial investment of $10,000 grows at 11% per year. What function represents the value of the investment after t years? R) - 10,000(1.11) R) - 10,000(1.11) - 10,000(11)' A) – 10,000(0.11)' a. c. b. d.arrow_forwardPopulation of Females Under 18 Using projected data from 2020 to 2060, the population offemales under 18 in the United States is given byy = 154.03x + 34,319, with x equal to the numberof years after 2000 and y equal to the projected population, in thousands. In what year will the populationreach 38,169,750, according to this model?(Source: U.S. Census Bureau)arrow_forwardAn economist wants to compare the economic growth rate (%) within 50 kilometers and 100 kilometers to cities in a country. He collected 6 cities of the country, and calculated the growth rates with 50km and 100km as shown in the following table. Choose an appropriate test to validate that regions within 100km have higher economic growth rate than the regions within 50km to cities. You can make certain assumptions, but need to write to indicate your assumption. Show calculations by hand.arrow_forward
- |The amount A(t) of atmospheric pollutants in a certain mountain valley grows naturally and is tripling every 7.5 years. If it will be dangerous to stay in the valley when the amount of pollutants reaches 100 pu, how long will this take?arrow_forwardPresbyopia affects most people at the age of 40 years. It does not affect the life expectancy but diminish visual functions. After vision declines at the age of 40, it does not (hypothetically) decline more with advancing age. There is a new surgical procedure for this condition that restore vision to normal with no complication and costs INR. 100000. Life expectancy at the age of 40 in the general population is assumed to be 42 years and time trade off yields a utility value of 0.9 for presbyopia. Calculate the number of QALY with intervention and without intervention.arrow_forward7.8.7 d) in the early 1970s there were approximately 40,000 trees lining the streets of Newton. Today, that number is about 26,000-a 35% loss. The current annual rate of decline is about 650 trees per year. At this rate, if unchecked, public street trees would diminish to approximately 10,000 within a generation (25 years), and in 40 years, public street trees would no longer be part of the Newton landscape. a-c will be answered in the picture attached a) check the arithmetic that leads to the claimed "35% loss" b) check the arithmetic that leads to a "current annual rate of 650 trees per year". c) check the predictions in the last sentence. are they likely to come to pass? now, using the information in the paragraph and the questions + work shown, answer d) d) write the equation for the linear model implicit in this quotation (use years since 2012 as the independent variable). identify the slope and the intercept, with their units.arrow_forward
