Y=3x+6
y=mx+b 3 is slope and m is also the slope, six is b because it’s where it BEgins :)
Answer:
Left: The substance is decreasing by 1/2 every 12 years
Right: The substance is decreasing by 5.61% each year
Step-by-step explanation:
exponential decay
A = P(1-r)ᵇⁿ, where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate decreased each time period, b is the number of years, and n is the number of times compounded each year
let's write each formula in terms of this
left:
f(t) = 600(1/2)^(t/12)
matching values up...
A = P(1-r)ᵇⁿ
A = f(t)
P = 600
1 - r = 1/2 -> r = 1/2
t/12 = bn -> b = number of years = t, so bn = b/12 -> n = 1/12. Thus, it is compounded 1/12 times each year, so it is compounded every t*12 = 12 years. If it was compounded each month, it would be compounded 12 times a year
Thus, this is decreasing by a rate of 1/2 each 12 years
right:
f(t) = 600(1-0.0561)^(t)
matching values up...
A = P(1-r)ᵇⁿ
A = f(t)
P = 600
1 - r = 1 - 0.0561 -> r = 0.0561 = 5.61%
t = bn -> b = number of years = t, so bn = b -> n = 1. Thus, it is compounded annually (1 time each year)
Thus, this is decreasing by a rate of 5.61% each year
Answer:
Bumby Avenue is represented by the line:
y = -4*x - 7.
Primrose Avenue can be represented with:
8x + 2y = 17.
We may want to find the point where both avenues intersect.
Let's isolate y in this second equation:
2y = 17 - 8x
y = 17/2 - 8x/2 = -4*x + 17/2
Now we can see that the equation for Primrose Avenue has the same slope than the equation for Bumby Avenue, and when two linear equations have the same slope, means that the lines are parallel.
Then we can conclude that Primrose Avenue and Bumby Avenue are parallel, so they never meet eachother.
