If it looks like this
y = 161*(0.725)^t then it's a decay. Reason: the base is under 1. Try a couple of values for t say 0,1,2

y = 161 * (0.725)^0 
y = 161

y = 161 * (0.725)^1
y = 161 * 0.725
y = 116.7

y = 161 * (0.725)^2
y = 161 * (0.5256
y = 84.63

You can see that the function is steadily getting smaller. Remember if the base is under 1 and more than 0 the function decays. If it is greater than 1 then the function grows.

Just to make sure we understand what I'm saying
0 < base < 1
y = a ( base)^power.

Hey! I feel so sorry for you. I’ve been stuck with graph questions for a while now. They can be tricky, especially long equations like that. I snapshotted the graph I calculated for you.

Which system of equations has one solution?
Tju [1.3M]
The first graph. This is because the one solution is where the two lines will intersect.
In the second graph, the two lines are parallel, so there is no possible way for them to intersect. In the third graph, the two lines are on top of one another, so there’s more than one solution.
Therefore, the first graph is where there is one solution.

Blake measures the lengths, in inches, of 10 insects. He records the lengths of the insects on this line plot. He adds the lengt
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The x's denote the insects measured so the longest insects would be of lengths:

1³/₄ inch, 1³/₄ inch and 1¹/₂ inch.

Adding them together would require converting them to improper fractions first:

7/4, 7/4, 3/2

Pick a denominator that is both denominators' lowest common multiple = 4

Adding them:

Divide the LCM by the denominator of the fraction and multiply the result by the numerator:

= (7 + 7 + 6) / 4

= 20/4

= 5 inches
