In 1998 there were 1505 daily newspapers in the country. By 2005, there were only 1456 daily newspapers. a. Write two ordered pairs of the form (years after 1998, number of daily newspapers) for this situation.
b. The relationship between years after 1998 and numbers of daily newspapers is linear over this period. Use the ordered pairs from part (a) to write an equation for the
line relating years after 1998 to numbers of daily newspapers.
c. Use the linear equation in part (b) to estimate numbers of daily newspapers in 2001.
a. The two ordered pairs are
(Use a comma to separate the two ordered pairs.)

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

answer: domain and range mean all possible values of x and y that could be substituted to the inequality. a solution means all possible values that make the inequality statement true. so while the range is still all real numbers, the solution is the shaded area, for which y will always be greater than the line of the function.

step-by-step explanation:

days of the week

step-by-step explanation:

javier earned more money then kyle, so that won't always be a constant term, but the days of the week do not change so that term is always constant.
