Y = mx+b m is slope x is a point you choose and b is the y intercept.
Yy^2 I'm pretty sure is the answer!
Answer:
A) The annual multiplier was 1.0339; the annual increase was 0.0339 of the value.
B) 3.39% per year
C) $182,000
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Let's let t represent years since 1987. Then we can fill in the numbers and solve for r.
165000 = 100000(1 +r)^15
1.65^(1/15) = 1 +r . . . . . divide by 100,000; take the 15th root
1.03394855265 -1 = r ≈ 0.0339
The value was multiplied by about 1.0339 each year.
