In 2002 real GDP per capita in the US was $46,388 (2012 dollars). In 2021, real GDP per capita is $58,454. (a) What was the annual growth rate of real GDP per capita from 2002 to 2021?
(b) Suppose you get a good job and your income is equal to GDP per
capita. Also suppose your income grows at exactly the same rate as the growth rate GDP per capita each year that you work. Additionally, suppose the real GDP per capita growth rate remains the same as it did from 2002-2021 throughout your working life. I expect you will work 45 years from now and retire in the year 2065.
Given our scenario, how much will your income be when you retire in 2065?

relating to or denoting a system of numbers and arithmetic based on the number ten, tenth parts, and powers of ten.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!

this is a good question! i’ll do some research and what i find, i’ll contact you asap when i have something! ✊
