8x - 4y = 8
-4y = -8x + 8
y = -8x/-4 + 8/-4
y = 2x - 2, comparing to y = mx + c, slope m = 2
Slope = 2.
Using an exponential function, it is found that the colony will have 1344 bacteria after 8 days.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>
An increasing exponential function is modeled by:
In which:
- A(0) is the initial value.
- r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
Considering the initial amount of 150, and the growth rate of 73% each 2 days, the equation is given by:
Hence, after 8 days, the amount of bacteria is given by:

Answer:
76
Step-by-step explanation:
–4(x – 26) = –200
–4x + 104 = –200
–104 –104
–4x/–4 = –304/–4
x = 76
Payton drives 7 3/4
and Jessie drives 6 3/8
to find how much farther Payton drives subtract them
7 3/4 - 6 3/8
find the LCD or least common denominator in the fractions
3/4 = 6/8 so now you have
7 6/8 - 6 3/8
7-6 = 1
6/8 - 3/8 = 3/8
gives you 1 3/8 miles farther
