From the statement, y varies directly with x. It can be expressed as:

y α x

To change it to an equality, we insert a proportionality constant k.

y = kx

We first solve for k,

8 = k(-4)
k = -2

Therefore, when x = 7,

y = -2(7)
y = -14

For direct variation, y = kx
8 = -4k
k = 8/-4 = -2

Therefore, required equation is y = -2x

when x = 7, y = -2(7) = -14

A 26' Long painting is how many yards Long
Alenkinab [10]
In one foot, there are 0.33 yards.
Therefore, you need to multiply 26 by 0.33
20x0.33= 6.6
6x0.33= 1.98 yards.
6.6+1.98= 8.58
Therefore, in a 26' long painting, there are 8.58 yards

Scientist are studying a bacteria sample. The function f(x)=360(1.07)^x gives the number of bacteria in the sample at the end of
Lapatulllka [165]

Options :

A. The initial number of bacteria is 7.

B. The initial of bacteria decreases at a rate of 93% each day.

C. The number of bacteria increases at a rate of 7% each day.

D. The number of bacteria at the end of one day is 360.

Answer:

C. The number of bacteria increases at a rate of 7% each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

f(x)=360(1.07)^x ; Number of bacteria in sample at the end of x days :

The function above represents an exponential growth function :

With the general form ; Ab^x

Where A = initial amount ;

b = growth rate

x = time

For the function :

A = initial amount of bacteria = 360

b = growth rate = (1 + r) = 1.07

If ; (1 + r) = 1.07 ; we can solve for r to obtain the daily growth rate ;

1 + r = 1.07

r = 1.07 - 1

r = 0.07

r as a percentage ;

0.07 * 100% = 7%
