Step-by-step explanation:
There's no value for x. After solving, there was no value for x. therefore x=0
10^[ 12 - ( - 3 ) ] = 10^( 12 + 3 ) = 10^15 ;
We use the formula
:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the inverse of a function, simply switch the 'x' and 'y' variables. Substitute in 'y' in the place of f(x) for this purpose:
y = 2x - 10
Switch positions:
x = 2y - 10
Add '10' to both sides to begin simplifying:
x + 10 = 2y
Divide both sides by 2:
This can be rewritten as:
Therefore, the inverse of the function is:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
19. B -- continued, but modest ...
Step-by-step explanation:
19. There is no decline or decrease indicated on this graph. If growth were exponential, the graph would be concave upward, which it is not. There is continued growth indicated.
__
20. The percentage change from 2005 to 2010 is ...
(60 -20)/20 × 100% = 2 × 100% = 200%
One might compute an average rate of change per year of ...
200%/(5 yr) = 40%/yr
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
As with any statement of percentage, you need to be very clear about what the base is.
Here, 100% is the number of farms in 2005, so an increase of 40% per year is an increase by 40% of the number in 2005. That is very different from 40% of the number in the previous year, which is how an annual percentage increase is usually interpreted. (The average annual rate of change is closer to 24% with respect to the previous year's number.)
