The formula for exponential growth is y=a(1+r)
. Where a is the initial value when time is 0 (100 in this case). r is the growth rate, we can see that the growth is 10%. And x is how much time has passed, we want to find out how many trucks after 9 years.
So we would plug the values in to get y=100(1+.1)
. Solving this gives us 235.79, so we would round up to 236, and our answer would be 236 trucks registered in the city in year 9.
Edit: The x and the 9 are exponents, the formatting made them look a bit weird.

Answer:
k = 4, y = 4x
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we get the ratio of :
x : y = 1 : 4
Two variables are proportional to each other if their ration is constant. The constant value is denoted by 'k' and is called as constant of proportionality.
In the question, the two variables are :
x = glasses of lemonade
y = lemons used
From the question, the ratio of y is to x is given by :
y : x is 24 : 6 = 4 : 1 or 24/6 = 4
32 : 8 = 4 : 1 or 32/8 = 4
28 : 7 = 4 : 1 or 28/7 = 4
8 : 2 = 4 : 1 or 8/2 = 4
16 : 4 = 4 : 1 or 16/4 = 4
So here the constant is 4 . Therefore, the constant of proportionality, k is 4.
So we can write the equation as :
y = kx
or y = 4x
