The design life of a planned municipal water-distribution system is to end in 2030, and the population in the town has been measured every 10 years since 1920 by the U. S. Census Bureau. The reported populations are tabulated below, and it is estimated that the saturation population of the town is 100,000 people. Estimate the population in the town in 2030 using: (a) graphical extension, (b) arithmetic growth projection, (c) geometric growth projection, (d) declining growth projection,

Suppose a ball is dropped fromca height of 6ft. it bounces back up but time it bounces, it reaches only 7/10 of its pervious height. what is the total of each height that the ball reaches after 5 bounces

Aprisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. the first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel. the second leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after three days of travel. the third door leads immediately to freedom. (a) assuming that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2 and 3 with probabili- ties 0.5,0.3,0.2 (respectively), what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (b) assuming that the prisoner is always equally likely to choose among those doors that he has not used, what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (in this version, if the prisoner initially tries door 1, for example, then when he returns to the cell, he will now select only from doors 2 and 3.) (c) for parts (a) and (b), find the variance of the number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom. hint for part (b): define ni to be the number of additional days the prisoner spends after initially choosing door i and returning to his cell.

Which number is located at point a on the number line? a number line is shown from negative 10 to 10 with each interval mark on the number line representing one unit. point a is labeled one interval mark to the right of negative 5.
