The Amazon rainforest is gradually being destroyed by pollution and agricultural and industrial development. For simplicity, suppose that each year, 10% of the remaining forest is destroyed. Assume, also for simplicity, that the present area of the Amazon rainforest is 1,200,000 square miles.
1.a) What will the area of the forest be after 1 year of this destruction process?
1.b) What will the area of the forest be after 2 years of this destruction process?
2) Make a graph showing your results from Question 1 and continuing through 5 years of the destruction process. Include the present situation as a point on your graph.
3) Find a rule for how much rain forest will remain after X years. That is, express the area of the rain forest as a function of X.
Answer:
D) The domain of the function is all real numbers

The simplified version of this would be: (4x+16y)+(12x+3y). You then combine like terms (4x+12x=16x) and (16y+3y=19y). Since this is the most simplified you can make the equation THE ANSWER would be 16x+19y
Answer:
Andrew is correct because the Parallel lines always have the same slope.
Step-by-step explanation:
They seem correct. For the first one you don’t really need the 1, so you could write it as y=-x+2, but both ways work
