Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.

So:
a) p=45(1-0.06)^t=45*0.94^t
Where t is the number of weeks.

We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 = 31psi

What is the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (−4, −1) and (5, 7) ?
Sergio039 [100]

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (-4, -1) and (5, 7). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{7-(-1)}{5-(-4)}=\dfrac{7+1}{5+4}=\dfrac{8}{9}\\\\\boxed{y-7=\dfrac{8}{9}(x-5)}

<h3>What is a polygon?</h3>

It should be noted that a polygon simply means a plane figure that has a finite number of straight line segments.

In this case, a polygon that's inscribed in a circle has each vertex on the outer figure. Also regular polygons can be inscribed in a circle.

Question 2
Oliga [24]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

you want the trinomial (x*x - 6x + __ ) to be written as a binomial squared.

So we would need to realize that the constant would be equal to (-6/2)^2  =(-3)^2 = 9

We have completed the square.

f(x) = 4*( x - 3)^2  + 20   is now in Vertex Form
