Finding the constant of proportionality :

y = kx²
160 = k(4)²
k = 10

Finding y when x = 6 :

y = 10(6)²
y = 10(36)
y = 360

The value of y is 360 when x = 6.

REY [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

a + a r + a r^2 + a r^3 + a r^4 + a r^5 + ar^6

a r^2 = 108

a r^5 =-32

r^5/r^2 = - 32/108 = -8/27

r^3 = -2^3/3^3 =

r = - 2/3

First, multiply 1,127 & 1 by 2
1127 x 2 = 2254
1 x 2 = 2

so that’s 2,254 cups & 2 fl. ounces
since 8 fl. oz. make a cup, and we only have 2, the answer stays as it is

2,254 cups & 2 fl. ounces

Identifiy the initial amount a and the decay factor b in the exponential function y=5×0.5^×

xenn [34]

Answer:

$a=5\\ \\b=0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the exponential decay function $y=5\cdot (0.5)^x$

When $x=0,$ then

$y=5\cdot (0.5)^0=5\cdot 1=5,$

so the initial amount is $a=5$

The exponential decay function $y=a\cdot b^x$ has the decay factor $b.$

In your case, the eexponential decay factor is $b=0.5$
