The amount of money in an account may increase due to rising stock prices and decrease due to falling stock prices. Maggie is studying the change in the amount of money in two accounts, A and B, over time. The amount f(x), in dollars, in account A after x years is represented by the function below:

f(x) = 9,628(0.92)x

Part A: Is the amount of money in account A increasing or decreasing and by what percentage per year? Justify your answer. (5 points)

Part B: The table below shows the amount g(r), in dollars, of money in account B after r years.

r (number of years) 1 2 3 4
g(r) (amount in dollars) 8,972 8,074.80 7,267.32 6,540.59
Which account recorded a greater percentage change in amount of money over the previous year? Justify your answer. (5 points)

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. the seat was designed for pilots weighing between 120 lb and 161 lb. the new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 125 lb and a standard deviation of 28.1 lb. a)if a pilot is randomly selected, find the probability that his weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb.the probability is approximately? b. if 36 different pilots are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb. the probability is approximately? c. when redesigning the ejection seat, which probability is more relevant? . part (b) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important. b. part (b) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. c. part (a) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. d. part (a) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important.
