question 12

Multiple Choice

The number of people playing tennis T (in millions) in the United States from 2000 through 2007 can be approximated by the function​ $T ( t ) = 0.0236 t ^ { 4 } - 0.3401 t ^ { 3 } + 6.556 t ^ { 2 } - 2.86 t + 26.8$ ​ and the U.S.population P (in millions) from 2000 through 2007 can be approximated by the function $P ( t ) = 5.78 t + 221.5$ ,where t represents the year,with t = 0 corresponding to 2000.
Find $h ( t ) = \frac { T ( t ) } { P ( t ) }$ .
​

• A) \(h ( t ) = \frac { 0.0236 t ^ { 4 } - 0.3401 t ^ { 3 } - 6.556 t ^ { 2 } - 2.86 t + 26.8 } { 5.78 t + 221.5 }\) ​
• B) \(h ( t ) = \frac { 0.0236 t ^ { 4 } - 0.3401 t ^ { 3 } + 6.556 t ^ { 2 } - 2.86 t + 26.8 } { 5.78 t + 221.5 }\) ​
• C) \(h ( t ) = \frac { 0.0236 t ^ { 4 } - 0.3401 t ^ { 3 } - 6.556 t ^ { 2 } - 2.86 t - 26.8 } { 5.78 t - 221.5 }\)
• D) \(h ( t ) = \frac { 0.0236 t ^ { 4 } - 0.3401 t ^ { 3 } + 6.556 t ^ { 2 } - 2.86 t + 26.8 } { 5.78 t - 221.5 }\) ​
• E) \(h ( t ) = \frac { 0.0236 t ^ { 4 } + 0.3401 t ^ { 3 } + 6.556 t ^ { 2 } - 2.86 t + 26.8 } { 5.78 t + 221.5 }\)
