A Bloomberg BusinessWeek North American subscriber study collected data from a sample of 2861 subscribers. Fifty-nine percent of the respondents indicated an annual income of $75,000 or more, and 50% reported having an American Express credit card.1. What is the population of interest in this study?2. Is annual income a qualitative or quantitative variable?3. Is ownership of an American Express card a qualitative or quantitative variable?4. Does this study involve cross-sectional or time series data?5. Determine whether the following two statistical inferences may be made based on the sample data collected. An estimated 59% of the population of subscribers has an annual income of $75,000 or more. An estimated 60% of the population of subscribers has an American Express credit card.

i'm sorry mate, but i am not seeing any figures. i am unable to solve this for you.

you need to rotate this triangle about the origin 270 degrees clockwise to create the full square.

a) 40 more; b) old factory:   10%, new factory:   16%; c) week 4

explanation:

a) at week 0, we see in the graph that the new factory produces 190 specialty items.  

using the function, substituting 0 in for w,

this is a difference of 230-190 = 40.

b) the function for the old factory is written in the form f(x) = a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the original amount, x is the amount of time and r is the growth rate.   the equation for the old factory is ; 230 is in place of a and is the original amount; w is the amount of time; which means 1+r = 1.1.   this means that r must be 0.1 or 10%.

for the new factory, we find the percent of increase to find the growth rate; the formula for this is

between the first two points, the amount of change is 220-190 = 30; this gives us

30/190 = 0.158 ≈ 0.16 = 16%

c) at week 0, the old factory has 230 while the new factory has 190.

at week 1, the old factory has 230(1.1) = 253 while the new factory has 220.

at week 2, the old factory has 230(1.1²) = 278.3 while the new factory has 252.

at week 3, the old factory has 230(1.1³) = 306.13 while the new factory has 290.

at week 4, the old factory has 230(1.1⁴) = 336.743 while the new factory has 337.   this is the first week that the new factory surpasses the old.
