- The table shows the age-adjusted death rates per 100,000 citizens for heart disease in a certain country. Complete parts(a) through (c) below. Year Death Rate 2000 256.2 2002 239.4 2004 217.0 2006 211.8 2008 184.2 2010 177.1 2012 171.3 2014 165.0 (a) Find an exponential model of the form f(t)=y0b^t for these data, where t=0 corresponds to the year 2000. If you do not have suitable technology, use the first and last data points to find a function. If you have a graphing calculator or other suitable technology, use exponential regression to find a function. f(t)=_ (_)^t (Round to two decimal places as needed.) (b) Assuming the model remains accurate, estimate the death rate in 2020 and 2025. The death rate in 2020 will be:___ people per 100,000. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) The death rate in 2025 will be:___ people per 100,000. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) (c) Use a graphing…arrow_forwardThe table below shows t, the number of thousands of state-registered automatic weapons and p, the number of murders per 100,000 residents for several Northwestern states. t 11.8 8.3 7 3.8 2.5 2.8 2.3 0.5 p 14.1 11.2 10 7.4 6.3 6.1 5.7 4.2 Use your calculator to do a linear regression expressing the number of murders per 100,000 residents as a function of the number of thousands of state-registered automatic weapons. Also, give the rr and r2r2 values from your calculatorRegression Equation: rr = r2 = Round to 3 decimal places.2.Using your linear regression, how many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 3100 automatic weapons?Round to 3 decimal places.3.Using your linear regression, how many automatic weapons would be expected in a city with 8.2 murders per 100,000 residents?Round to the nearest whole weapon.arrow_forwardThe CPI (for all urban consumers) for college tuition and fees between 2000 and 2008 for a country is given below. Tuition CPI Year CPI, c 2000 327.9 2001 363.9 2002 377.4 2003 432.5 2004 462.2 2005 490.8 2006 537.2 2007 562.2 2008 586.8 (a) Find the function for the linear model that gives the CPI (for all urban consumers) for college tuition and fees, where t is the number of years after 2000, with data from 0 ≤ t ≤ 8. Round the coefficients of the equation to two decimal places. c(t) = 323.36+33.99t (b) Use the algebraic method to develop a formula for the derivative of the rounded model. c'(t) = per year(c) Evaluate the rate of change of the function in part (a) for the year 2008. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)Interpret the result. In 2008, the CPI for college tuition and fees was ---Select--- increasing decreasing by per year. (d) Calculate the percentage rate of change in the CPI in 2008. (Round your answer to three…arrow_forward
