For this case we have a function of the form:

Where,
A: initial amount
b: decrease rate
x: time in days
Substituting values we have:

Therefore, the graph of the function is a decreasing exponential function in the first quadrant and that has an initial value of 40.
Answer:
graph of exponential function going from left to right in quadrant 1 through the point 0, 40 and approaching the x axis
Step-by-step explanation:
She made a sign error when multiplying and should have had 256 as a final answer.
1) Work out what 1/5 of 12 is
To do this, we divide 12 by 5
12/5 = 2.4
2) Multiply 2.4 by 15
2.4 x 15 = 36
<em>If you don't like decimals, you can also do it this way...
</em>
This can be rewritten as 15 x 1/5 x 12
Multiplications alone can be performed in any order
1) Work out what 1/5 of 15 is
1/5 of 15
15/5 = 3
2) 3 multiplied by 12
3 x 12 = 36
First, convert cm to inches.
50/2.54 is roughly 19.69
There are 12 inches in a foot, so divide the 19.69 by 12.
19.69/12 is roughly 1.64
So the answer is C
Answer:
formula: y-y1 = m(x-x1)
Step-by-step explanation:
General:
1. find 2 points directly on the line and apply the formula y2-y1 over x2-x1 this answer equals m
2. then add it into the formula y-y1 = m(x-x1) remember x and y are variables so only put numbers in y1 and x1
3. solve the problem
Example:
line 1:
1. y2-y1 over x2-x1 is 4-6 over 6-4 = -1
2. y-6 = -1(x-(-4) or y-6 = -1(x+4)
3. y-6 = -1x-4
4. y = -1x-2
3. the gradient equals: y = -1x-2
Hope this helps :) Let me know if you need a better example
