An equation to approximate the percentage of the population 25 years of age or older with a bachelor's degree in a country can be given by the model P = 0.439n + 25.2, where n is the number of years after 20 Answer parts (a) through (e)- (a) According to the model, what percentage of the population 25 years of age or older had a bachelor's degree in 2000 (n = 0)? In 2000, approximately |% of the population 25 years of age or older had a bachelor's degree. (b) According to the model, what percentage of the population 25 years of age or older had a bachelor's degree in 2010 (n = 10)? In 2010, approximately % of the population 25 years of age or older had a bachelor's degree. (c) According to the model, what percentage of the population 25 years of age or older will have a bachelor's degree in 2020 (n = 20)? In 2020, approximately % of the population 25 years of age or older will have a bachelor's degree. (d) In which year will 50% of the population 25 years of age or older have a bachelor's degree? In . 50% of the population 25 years of age or older will have a bachelor's degree. (Round to the nearest year as needed.) (e) According to the model, 100% of the population 25 years of age or older will have a bachelor's degree in 2170. Do you think this is reasonable? Why or why not? Choose the correct answer below. O A. It is reasonable because a greater percentage of people will have bachelor's degrees as the country's population increases. O B. It is reasonable because the given equation is valid for all values of n. O C. It is not reasonable because there will likely be people who are still in the process of getting a bachelor's degree. O D. It is not reasonable because bachelor's degrees will likely be less important and so fewer people will have them
