Computer usage has increased over time. But has the increase been more linear or more exponential? In 1997, 22.2% of the populat

ion over three years of age, or about 60 million people, used the internet. In 1998, 32.7% of the population over three years of age, or about 90 million people, used the internet.
a. If the usage increased linearly, write the linear function that would give 60 million people in year 0 and 90 million in year 1.

That's an increase of 30,000,000 people in one year, a slope of 30 million and a good year for the internet.

If t is the year, and p is number of internet users,

p = 30000000(t - 1997) + 60000000

Answer: p = 30000000(t - 1997) + 60000000

As for linear versus exponential, one year of data can't really distinguish.

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the linear function that is represented by the table?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

slope is -2 and the y-intercept is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

a key thing to remember: x is always equal to 0 when finding the y-intercept.

so if you look at the table for where 0 is, you get the point (0,12) meaning the y-intercept is 12.

to find the slope use the equation: slope= change in y/change in x

you can use any two points to find this.

lets take the points of the x-intercept (6,0) and the y-intercept (0,12)

12-0/0-6

12/-6

-2 = slope

Answer:

  19 players

Step-by-step explanation:

The total being spent is ...

  bus cost + (per player cost) × (number of players) = total raised

  250 + 25.85p = 741.15

  25.85p = 491.15

  p = 491.15/25.85 = 19

The team could bring 19 players to the tournament.

Pamela is incorrect. When you multiply anything negative by a negative, the product will always be a positive. Because the two negative signs cancel each other out.
