Answer:

slope = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 6) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{-6-6}{3+3}$ = $\frac{-12}{6}$ = - 2

Trava [24]

Answer:

(a): 6 centimeters

(b): 72 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Rule: From centimeters to inches, multiply centimeters × 8

so from inches to centimeters, divide inches by 8

Scale:

1 cm : 8 in

? cm : 48 in

6 cm : 48 in

Scale:

? in : 9 cm

72 in : 9 cm

The table represents an exponential function. A 2-column table has 4 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries 1, 2, 3, 4

scoray [572]

Answer:

The multiplicative rate of change of the function is $\dfrac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the table

$\begin{array}{cc}x&y\\ \\1&6\\2&4\\ \\3&\dfrac{8}{3}\\ \\4&\dfrac{16}{9}\end{array}$

An exponential function can be written as

$y=a\cdot b^x,$

where b is the multiplicative rate of change of the function.

Find a and b. Substitute first two corresponding values of x and y into the function expression:

$6=a\cdot b^1\\ \\4=a\cdot b^2$

Divide the second equality by the first equality:

$\dfrac{4}{6}=\dfrac{a\cdot b^2}{a\cdot b^1}\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{2}{3}$

Substitute it into the first equality:

$6=a\cdot \dfrac{2}{3}\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{6\cdot 3}{2}=9$

So, the function expression is

$y=9\cdot \left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^x$

Check whether remaining two values of x and y suit this expression:

$9\cdot \left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^3=9\cdot \dfrac{8}{27}=\dfrac{8}{3}\\ \\9\cdot \left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^4=9\cdot \dfrac{16}{81}=\dfrac{16}{9}$

So, the multiplicative rate of change of the function is $\dfrac{2}{3}$

A sweater is 45.50 dollars. It's on sale for 20% off. What is the sale price of the sweater?

arlik [135]

<h3>Answer</h3>

Sale Price = $36.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sale Price = $36.4 (answer). This means the cost of the item to you is $36.4. You will pay $36.4 for a item with original price of $45.50 when discounted 20%. In this example, if you buy an item at $45.50 with 20% discount, you will pay 45.50 - 9.1 = 36.4 dollars.
