Answer:

Exponential Function

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-axis represents the number of Bacteria and x-axis represents the number of hours. If you observe closely you will see that the number of bacteria are doubling after each hour. For example, at time = 4 hours the number of Bacteria were about 50, at time = 5 hours the number of Bacteria were about 100 and at time = 6 hours the number of Bacteria increased to about 200.

This type of behavior is a property of exponential functions where we see a multiplicative rate of change in the values i.e. each value is a multiple of previous value. A rough model for this function would be:

f(x)=f(0)(2)^{x}

Where, f(0) represents the number of bacteria at time = 0 hours i.e. number of Bacteria initially present and "x" represents the number of hours.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The hourly charge is $4 per hour for the first 3 hours.

The rate then drops to $2 per hour until the end of the 6th hour.  

The hourly rate drops further to $1 per hour between the 6th and 10th  hours.

The maximum price of the bike rental is $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the graph corresponds to the hourly rate for the bike rental.

During the first three hours of the bike rental, the price increases by $4 each hour.

Between the 3rd  and 6 th hours, the slope of the graph is 2, which means the hourly rate of the bike rental is $2 per hour.

Between the 6th and 10th hours, the rate is $1 per hour.

After the 10th  hour, the price, P, stops increasing. The maximum price of the bike rental is $30.

Describe the process of changing a mixed number into an equivalent improper fraction.
natta225 [31]
Ex 1  3/2

2 x 1 +3          5
------------  =   -----  =  2.5
     2               2

first denominator times whatever the whole number is then add that to the nominator than you have an improper fraction

because 3/2 = 1.5 then plus the whole number which is 1.0 = 2.5
