Stella initially put $5 into a piggy bank. Over the next few years she continued to put all of her coins in the piggy bank, such

that each year the amount of money in the piggy bank doubled. Determine the equation that represents this situation and use it to decide which of the following graphs represents the amount of money, A(x), in Stella's piggy bank after x years.

Answer:

The equation is A(x) = 5(2)ˣ and the graph is Graph Z.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations on compounding interest (which this essentially is) are of the form

A(x) = p(1+r)ˣ, where p is the amount of principal, r is the interest rate and x is the amount of time.

Since Stella begins with $5, the principal is 5.

Since the amount of money doubles each year, this means we add an extra 100%; this makes r equal to 1.

This gives us the equation

A(x) = 5(1+1)ˣ = 5(2)ˣ

This graph will not be linear, as there is not a constant rate of change (there are different amounts added every year).

She begins with $5.  This means the y-intercept of the graph will be 5.

After 1 year, the amount of money doubles; this makes it 10.  The only graph that is not linear and goes through (0, 5) and (1, 10) is graph Z.

Answer: Z.


Step-by-step explanation:

They want you to figure formula then find right graph, but do it fastest way. If it doubles each year, graph can't be straight line, eliminate Y.

A(0) has to be $5, eliminate W. A(1) has to be double A(0), eliminate X. Check: Z shows A(1) is 10, A(2) is 20.

The function f(x)=−2(0.25)x+1 is shown. Select from the drop-down menus to correctly describe the end behavior of f(x).
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Q1

cos 59° = x/16

x = 16 cos 59°

x = 8.24

Q2

BC is given 23 mi

Maybe AB is needed

AB = √34² + 23² = 41 (rounded)

Q3

BC² = AB² - AC²

BC = √(37² - 12²) = 35

Q4

Let the angle is x

cos x = 19/20

x = arccos (19/20)

x = 18.2° (rounded)

Q5

See attached

Added point D and segments AD and DC to help with calculation

BC² = BD² + DC² = (AB + AD)² + DC²

Find the length of added red segments

AD = AC cos 65° = 14 cos 65° = 5.9

DC = AC sin 65° = 14 sin 65° = 12.7

Now we can find the value of BC

BC² = (19 + 5.9)² + 12.7²

BC = √781.3

BC = 28.0 yd

All calculations are rounded
