Answer:
AC = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
AB = BC
4 - 5x = 2x + 25
-7x = 21
x = -3
AC = 2(BC) = 2(2x + 25) = 4x + 50 = 4(-3) + 50 = -12 + 50 = 38
AC = 38
Choice D is true. It is just another way to write the given function.
To confirm choices A through C, replace x as follows and do the math:
For A, let x = -3. Does it really yield -11?
For B, let x = 0. Does it really yield 5?
For C, let x = 1/2. Does it really yield 4?
Take it from here.
0.0119047619 is the answer
A is INCORRECT because here we have degrowth and growth
B is INCORRECT because the decay factor is 2% or 0.02 , not 0.2
C is CORRECT, the function is which is used to calculated the area of rainforest at time t is given by 1156.25(1 -0.02 )^t
D is INCORRECT, if we plug in t=100 in the above equation , we get = 1156*(1-0.02)^100 = 153 square miles of forest. So it will not be wiped out
E is CORRECT, if we plug in t =35, we get = 1156*(1-0.02)^35 = 570 square miles. So more than half will be cut in 35 years
F is INCORRECT becuase domain goes beyond 100 years as shown by option D
So, correct options are C and E
