1.03=b this makes sense because it increases 3 percent so you add 1 to .03

Answer:

The value of b in the function is 1.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function that models exponential growth grows by a rate proportional to the amount present. For any real number x and any positive real numbers a and b such that b\neq 1, an exponential growth function has the form

                                           f(x)=ab^x

where

  • <em>a</em> is the initial or starting value of the function.
  • <em>b</em> is the growth factor or growth multiplier per unit x.

We know that the amount of money in a bank account with an initial balance of $15,000 earns 3% per year. So each year we have all of the previous earnings plus 3% more of those earnings (100% + 3% more).

Therefore,

The value of b in the function is b=1+0.03=1.03.

Kamila [148]
Answer: 16 ft

Explanation:

You can determine the lengths of each segment by subtracting the coordinates of the adjacent points.

1) From (2,5) to (8,5): 8 - 2 = 6

2) From (8,5) to (8,3): 5 - 3 = 2

3) From (8,3) to (2,3): 8 - 2 = 6 (as expected as this is congruent to the first

4) From (2,3) to (2,5): 5 - 3 = 2 (as expected as this is congruent to the second).

The total length of the border or perimeter is equal to the sum of all the sides:

perimeter = 6 + 2 + 6 + 2 = 16

Therefore the answer is 16 ft

A woman jogs for 2 km at 8 km/h and then walks for 2 km
Artemon [7]

Answer:

  6 6/7 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The relations between speed, time, and distance are ...

  time = distance/speed

  speed = distance/time

__

So, to find the average speed, we need to know the total distance and the total time. The distances are given, but we need to compute the times.

  time jogging = (2 km)/(8 km/h) = 1/4 h

  time walking = (2 km)/(6 km/h) = 1/3 h

Then the woman's average speed is ...

  average speed = (total distance)/(total time) = (2 km + 2 km)/(1/4 h + 1/3 h)

  = (4 km)/(7/12 h) = 48/7 km/h

  = 6 6/7 km/h
