Celia thinks that because the drop between the first two points is so large, the best model might actually have a y- intercept a

little below 10. She uses (0, 9.4) to estimate a in her model. To estimate b, she finds the average of the ratios of successive data values. what is her model?use two digits for precision of all quantitites

The equation of Celia's exponential model is y = 9.4 * 0.75^x

<h3>How to estimate the model?</h3>

The table that completes the question is added as an attachment

The y-intercept is given as:

(0,9.4)

The ratios of successive data values are calculated as:

r_1 = \frac{6.0}{10}= 0.6

r_2 = \frac{5.4}{6.0}= 0.9

r_3 = \frac{3.9}{5.4}= 0.72

r_4 = \frac{3.7}{3.9}= 0.95

r_5 = \frac{2.3}{3.7}= 0.62

r_6 = \frac{1.4}{2.3}= 0.61

r_7 = \frac{1.0}{1.4}= 0.71

r_8 = \frac{0.9}{1.0}= 0.9

r_9 = \frac{0.8}{0.9}= 0.89

r_{10} = \frac{0.5}{0.8}= 0.63

The average of the above values is

b = \frac{0.6 + 0.9 + 0.72 + 0.95 + 0.62 + 0.61 + 0.71 + 0.9 + 0.89 + 0.63}{10}

Evaluate

b = 0.75

An exponential function is represented as:

y = ab^x

Where

a = 9.4 as in the y-intercept (0,9.4)

b = 0.75

Substitute these values in y = ab^x

y = 9.4 * 0.75^x

Hence, the Celia's exponential model is y = 9.4 * 0.75^x

Eight less than four times the number c is twenty.<br> What is the value of c?
olganol [36]

Answer:

c=7

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem says that 8 less than 4 times c is less than twenty, so we can first show 8 less than 20.

4c -( I did this because it said 4 times the number c)

Then, we show 8 less than that.

4c-8

It says it is twenty, and that means it equals twenty.

4c-8=20

Now we solve!

4c-8=20

   +8  +8

*we add 8 to both sides*

4c=28

*we divide both sides by 4 since we want to isolate c*

c=28/4

c=7

I hope this helped!
