years (b) 2010 (c) 2030 (a) 2005 will the world population be when you reach 65 years old? ess The number of unique monthly visitors (in thou- sands) for Pinterest.com can be approximated by the function g(x) 325( 1.29"), where x 1 corresponds to the month of May, 2011. Estimate the number of unique monthly visitors for the following months. Data from: cnet.com and techcrunch.com.) (a) September 2011 (c) If the model remains accurate, find the month in which the (b) May 2012 number of unique visitors surpasses 40,000,000. . Econ omis Projections of the gross domestic product bin tillons of U.S. dollars), adjusted for purchasing power parity, are approximated as follows

Explanation / Answer

a) for may 2011, x=1 therefore for september 2011, x= 5

monthly visitors for sept 2011 = 325(1.295) = 325*3.57 = 1160.99 = 1161(approx)

b) for may 2012: x= 13

monthly visitor = 325(1.2913) = 325*27.39 = 8903.27 = 8903(approx)

c) month in which visitors surpass 40,000,000

       325(1.29x) = 40,000,000 => (1.29x) = 40,000,000/325

=> (1.29x) = 123,076.92   => (1.29x) = (1.2946)

x=46

for x=46, it will be feb,2015
