N1895, the first putting green championship was held. the winner’s prize money was $200. in 2016, the winner’s check was $1,480,000. a. what was the percentage increase per year in the winner’s check over this period? (do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.) b. if the winner’s prize increases at the same rate, what will it be in 2043?

Step-by-step explanation:

Using 2016 as a reference (t=0), the exponential equation for winnings can be written as ...

  w(t) = 1480000×(1480000/200)^(t/121)

where 1480000 is the winnings in the reference year, and the ratio 1480000/200 is the ratio of winnings increase over the 121 years from 1895 to 2016.

This can be approximated by ...

  w(t) ≈ 1,480,000×1.07640850764^t

In this form, we can see that the annual percentage increase is ...

  1.0764 -1 = 7.64%

__

Then the winner's check in 2043, 27 years after 2016, is predicted to be ...

  w(27) = $1,480,000×(1.0764...)^27 ≈ $10,805,478.41 ≈ $10,805,000

answer: standard form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0

step-by-step explanation:

standard form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0

(2x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

distribute to get into standard form

2x^2 - 4x + x - 2 = 0

2x^2 - 3x - 2 = 0

a = 2, b= -3, c = -2

a is your answer

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.
