28000=20000*e^.15t
1.4=e^.15t
ln 1.4=ln e^.15t=.15t ln e=.15t
t=ln 1.4/.15=2.2431 years for the town to grow

The table represents an exponential function
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The multiplicative rate is 9 if the table that shows an exponential function option fourth is correct.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always positive. It denotes with exponent y = a^x

where a is a constant and a>1

We have a table that shows an exponential function.

As we know the exponential function:

y = a(b)ˣ

Plug x = 1, y = 6

6 = ab ...1

Plug x = 2, y = 4

4 = ab²  ...2

Divide equations 1 and 2

ab²/ab  = 4/6

b = 2/3

Plug the value of b in the 1 equation.

a(2/3) = 6

a = 9

y = 9(2/3)×

The multiplicative rate = 9

Thus, the multiplicative rate is 9 if the table that shows an exponential function option fourth is correct.

The difference of 3 times a number and 10 is 122.
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Let x = the 2nd number

Let x + 8 = the first number

Let 4x = the third number

x + x + 8 + 4x = 122

6x + 8 = 122

6x = 114

x = 19

x + 8 = 19 + 8 = 27

4x = 4(19) = 76

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of three numbers is 122 . The first number is 8 more than the second. The third number is 4 times the second

A direct variation equation that relates x and y
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Because X and Y vary directly, the equation is the form Y =KX. We can then solve for K by using the given values for X and Y. The equation that relates X and Y is Y= 5x
