Answer:
B. ( –3, –4)
C. ( 4, 17 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Function: y = 3x + 5
Using method of elimination
A. (2, –1)
x = 2, y = -1
-1 = 3 (2) + 5
-1 ≠ 11
This option is incorrect!
B. ( –3, –4)
x = -3, y = -4
-4 = 3 (-3) + 5
-4 = - 9 + 5
-4 = -4
This option is correct!
C. ( 4, 17 )
x = 4, y = 17
17 = 3 (4) + 5
17 = 12 + 5
17 = 17
This option is correct!
D. ( 3, 8 )
x = 3, y = 8
8 = 3 (3) + 5
8 = 9 + 5
8 = 14
This option is incorrect!
Answer:
$2229.27
Step-by-step explanation:
tax rate: 10.25%
tax amount: $228.50
price before tax: x
10.25% of x = $228.50
0.1025x = 228.5
x = 228.5/0.1025
x = 2229.27
Answer: $2229.27
Short answer: I don't know, but that doesn't mean I can't give you something that you can decide for yourself.
y = 4*2^(2n - 2) is the pattern.
Go for broke. Try n = 4. You should get 256. Let's try it.
y = 4 * 2^(2*4 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^(8 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^6
y = 4 * 64
y = 256 yup it works.
The other end is just as important. Suppose n = 1
Then y = 4 * 2^(2*1 - 2) = 4 * 2^0 = 4*1 = 4 Both work.
If this formula is correct, we can abbreviate it to make your task easier.
y = 4 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^2 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^(2n - 2 + 2)
y = 2^(2n) Now try the two end points again.
n = 4
y = 2^(2*4)
y = 2^8
y = 256
n = 1
y = 2^(2*1)
y = 2^2
y = 4 which again checks.
so y = 2^(2n) I think is an exponential function.
Sorry my explanation is so long.
