Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponential function is of the form

where a is the initial value and b is the growth/decay rate. Our initial value is 64. That's easy to plug in. It goes in for a. So the first choice is out. Considering b now...
If the rate is decreasing at .5% per week, this means it still retains a rate of
100% - .5% = 99.5%
which is .995 in decimal form.
b is a rate of decay when it is greater than 0 but less than 1; b is a growth rate when it is greater than 1. .995 is less than 1 so it is a rate of decay. The exponential function is, in terms of t,

Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+
= 1
Multiply through by ab to clear the fractions
bx + ax = ab ← factor out x from each term on the left side
x(b + a) = ab ← divide both sides by (b + a)
x = 
The answer to your question is option d as x is positive ( making it open up), and the vertex is (-3,-4)
Answer:
(x - 3)² + (y + 9)² = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle in standard form is
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius
Given area = 25π , that is
πr² = 25π ( divide both sides by π )
r² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
r =
= 5
With centre (h, k) = (3, - 9 ) and r = 5 , then
(x - 3)² + (y - (- 9) )² = 5² , that is
(x - 3)² + (y + 9)² = 25
Answer:
-1 < m ≤ - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Your expression includes: m, -1, -5, >, ≤
m is the value being compared so it will be in the middle.
# sign m sign #
m is no less than -1: no less than means it is greater than -1, but does not include -1. Therefore, our sign is >
m > -1
m is less than or equal to -5. This means we use ≤ because it can equal -5.
m ≤ -5
Now combine the two expressions
m > -1 – This can also be written as -1 < m.
m ≤ -5
-1 < m ≤ - 5
