Answer:

8a+2

Step-by-step explanation:

$6a + 8 + 2a – 6\\\\\mathrm{Group\:like\:terms}\\=6a+2a+8-6\\\\\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:6a+2a=8a\\=8a+8-6\\\\\mathrm{Add/Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:8-6=2\\=8a+2$

Answer:

6a + 8 + 2a – 6

we calculate the unknowns of the same type alone (x with x, a with a, y with y ...) and the digits / numbers alone .

6a+2a=8a

8-6=+2

So 8a+2

No because if you split it in half the halves don’t match

A population of insects grows exponentially, as shown in the table. Suppose the increase in population continues at the same rat

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer-

The insect population at the end of week 11 is 1730.

Solution-

A population of insects grows exponentially.

The general form of exponential function is,

$y=ab^x$

Where,

a, b are constants.

Putting the data given in the table, in the the equation in order to get the values of a, b

At (0, 20)

$\Rightarrow 20=ab^0$

$\Rightarrow a\cdot (1)=20$

$\Rightarrow a=20$

Now the exponential function becomes,

$y=20b^x$

At (1, 30)

$\Rightarrow 30=20b^1$

$\Rightarrow 20b=30$

$\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{30}{20}$

$\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{3}{2}$

Now the equation becomes,

$y=20(\frac{3}{2})^x$

For calculating the number of insects at the end of the 11th week, putting x=11, so

$y=20(\frac{3}{2})^{11}$

$=1729.95 \approx 1730$

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (8,-1) and (2,-5) in standard form, given the point to slope form

vredina [299]

We know that

the equation of the line in standard form is
Ax+By=C

the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is
y +1 = 2/3 (x - 8)-----> y+1=(2/3)x-(16/3)----> y-(2/3)x=(-16/3)-1
y-(2/3)x=(-19/3)----> multiply by 3-----> -2x+3y=-19

the answer is
-2x+3y=-19

I verify that the points belong to the given line
for the point (8,-1)
-2*8+3*(-1)=-19--------> -16-3=-19-----> -19=-19------> is ok

for the point (2,-5)
-2*2+3*(-5)=-19------> -4-15=-19------> -19=-19-----> is ok
