Suppose that an airline uses a seat width of 16.516.5 in. assume men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.414.4 in. and a standard deviation of 0.90.9 in. complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) find the probability that if an individual man is randomly selected, his hip breadth will be greater than 16.516.5 in. the probability is nothing. (round to four decimal places as needed.)

In 2009, there were 1570 bears in a wildlife refuge. in 2010, the population had increased to approximately 1884 bears. if this trend continues and the bear population is increasing exponentially, how many bears will there be in 2018?
