Answer:
- C for question 1
- A for question 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First Question
What you need to do here is pick an answer that will result in a decrease. If you have something like 1.3 * e ^ (0.038 * t), what will happen when t = 20
P = 1.3 * e^(0.038*20) = 1.3*e^0.76 = 2.77 which is getting bigger not smaller.
So what you want is something like 1.3 * e^-0.76 = 0.67
So which question is configured that way?
It's either C or D. but which one? It cannot be D. 0.38 is far too big: it does not represent 3.8%
C does represent 3.8% as a decimal. It is the correct answer.
Answer: C
Second Question
Every time she sells a ticket, the total that she gets is 4 more than what she had before.
The variation is a direct one. It is y = k*x. But what is k? Is it 4 or is it 1/4?
Read the first sentence above. She gets 4 dollars more, not 1/4 of a dollar.
C and D are both wrong because those equations think she is getting 1/4 more.
B is wrong because it says that the relationship is inverse. It is not. It is direct.
The answer is A
Answer:
1.3
Step-by-step explanation:
BC is the distance between B and C.
BC = x − (-0.4)
BC = x + 0.4
AB is the distance between A and B.
AB = -0.4 − (-1.25)
AB = -0.4 + 1.25
AB = 0.85
Substitute into the equation.
BC = 2AB
x + 0.4 = 2(0.85)
x + 0.4 = 1.7
x = 1.3
I’m not sure what the question is? But if you’re referring to Jack then here you go: if Jack had 3 apples and now he ate 2 he would end up with 1 apple left.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
x -y = 1
5x + 3y = 45
Solve the first equation for x: x = y + 1
Substitute x in the second with y + 1
5x + 3y = 45
5(y + 1) + 3y = 45
5y + 5 + 3y = 45
8y + 5 = 45
8y = 40
y = 5
Substitute 5 for y in x = y + 1
x = y + 1
x = 5 + 1
x = 6
Answer: (6, 5)
