In 1994, the city of Amuel had a population of 1,256 people. That same year a factory opened near the town, and many people moved into the city limits. The population grew to 1,381 people in 1995, and in 1996 the population of Amuel reached 1,519 people. Assume this rate of growth continued until the factory closed in 2007. How many people were living in Amuel when the factory closed?

If x=-3 is the only x-intercept of the graph of a quadratic equation, which statement best discribes the discriminant of the equation?

17. a researcher measures three variables, x, y, and z for each individual in a sample of n = 20. the pearson correlations for this sample are rxy = 0.6, rxz = 0.4, and ryz = 0.7. a. find the partial correlation between x and y, holding z constant. b. find the partial correlation between x and z, holding y constant. (hint: simply switch the labels for the variables y and z to correspond with the labels in the equation.) gravetter, frederick j. statistics for the behavioral sciences (p. 526). cengage learning. kindle edition.

The table below represents the displacement of a fish from its reef as a function of time: time (hours) x displacement from reef (feet) y 0 4 1 64 2 124 3 184 4 244 part a: what is the y-intercept of the function, and what does this tell you about the fish? (4 points) part b: calculate the average rate of change of the function represented by the table between x = 1 to x = 3 hours, and tell what the average rate represents. (4 points) part c: what would be the domain of the function if the fish continued to swim at this rate until it traveled 724 feet from the reef? (2 points)
