1 answer:

7 0

--------------------------
Slope :
--------------------------
Slope = 5/8

--------------------------
Equation:
--------------------------
y = 5/8 x + b

--------------------------
Find y-intercept :
--------------------------
At (8, 2),
2 = 5/8 (8) + b
2 = 5 + b
b = 2 - 5
b = -3

--------------------------
Equation :
--------------------------
y = 5/8x - 3

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: y = 5/8 x - 3
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Is 3 to the negative 1 power times 3 to the negative 1 power equal to 3 to the 1 power?

To make the exponent positive, make a fraction. 1/3 * 1/3. This is 0.1 repeating. 3^1 is 3. So the answer is no.

A person invested $2,500 in an account growing at a rate allowing the money to

sveta [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A person invested $2,500 in an account growing at a rate allowing the money to double every 11 years. How long, to the nearest tenth of a year would it take for the

value of the account to reach $3,800?

The formula for exponential growth given as:

A(t) = Ao (1/2)^t/t½

A(t) = Amount after time t = $3,800

Ao = Initial amount invested = $2500

t = Time in years

t½ = Time it takes to double = 11 years

Hence,

3800 = 2500(1/2)^t/11

Divide both sides by 2500

3800/2500 = 2500(1/2)^t/11/2500

If you are presenting very complex and complicated information, it is best to:

nignag [31]

Sometimes complex information all at once can be hard to gather... Simplifying ideas and concepts can help with the amount of cramming you're giving to your audience.

You're answer is B. Simplify ideas and concepts. :)
