The values of certain types of collectibles can often fluctuate greatly over time. Suppose that the value of a particular limited edition figurine is found to be able to be modeled by the function

?(?) = −0.01?4 + 0.47?3 − 7.96?2 + 49.18? + 65 for 0 ≤ ? ≤ 20 where ?(?) is in dollars, t is the number of years after the figurine was released, and ? = 0 corresponds to the year 1999.

a) What was the value of the figurine in the year 2009?

b) What was the value of the figurine in the year 2019?

c) What was the instantaneous rate of change of the value of the figurine in the year 2002?

d) What was the instantaneous rate of change of the value of the figurine in the year 2019?

e) Use your answers from parts a-d to estimate the value of the figurine in 2020.

A certain flight arrives on time 90 percent of the time. Suppose 185 flights are randomly selected. Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate the probability that ​(a) exactly 170 flights are on time. ​(b) at least 170 flights are on time. ​(c) fewer than 174 flights are on time. ​(d) between 174 and 178​, inclusive are on time.
