Answer:

260 stickers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Gareth's stickers be x.

Hence Cheryl sticker is 160+x;

If Cheryl gave 185 stickers

to Gareth, it means:

Cheryl has at the moment;

160 + x - 185 = x - 25

At this time when Gareth receives 185 he now has:

x+ 185

Also when he receives x +185, he has 3 times Cherry's meaning:

x+185 =3(x-25)

x + 185 = 3x -75

185 + 75 = 3x-2x

260= x

x = 260.

Hence Gareth has 260 stickers

Answer:

One pound costs 1.26, two costs 1.47, three costs 1.68, and four costs 1.89. So we calculate how much it increases in each pound.

1.26 + 21 = 1.47

1.47 + 21 = 1.68

1.68 + 21 = 1.89

1.89 + 21 = 2.10

2.10 + 21 = 2.31

2.31 + 21 = 2.52

2.52 + 21 = 2.73

8 pounds cost: 2.73

So I pay $ 2.73 for 8 pounds.

Determine what type of model best fits the given situation:

lyudmila [28]

Let value intially be = P

Then it is decreased by 20 %.

So 20% of P = $\frac{20}{100} \times P = 0.2P$

So after 1 year value is decreased by 0.2P

so value after 1 year will be = P - 0.2P (as its decreased so we will subtract 0.2P from original value P) = 0.8P-------------------------------------(1)

Similarly for 2nd year, this value 0.8P will again be decreased by 20 %

so 20% of 0.8P = $\frac{20}{100} \times 0.8P = (0.2)(0.8P)$

So after 2 years value is decreased by (0.2)(0.8P)

so value after 2 years will be = 0.8P - 0.2(0.8P)

taking 0.8P common out we get 0.8P(1-0.2)

= 0.8P(0.8)

$=P(0.8)^{2}$ -------------------------(2)

Similarly after 3 years, this value $P(0.8)^{2}$ will again be decreased by 20 %

so 20% of $P(0.8)^{2} \frac{20}{100} \times P(0.8)^{2} = (0.2)P(0.8)^{2}$

So after 3 years value is decreased by $(0.2)P(0.8)^{2}$

so value after 3 years will be = $P(0.8)^{2} - (0.2)P(0.8)^{2}$

taking $P(0.8)^{2}$ common out we get $P(0.8)^{2}(1-0.2)$

$P(0.8)^{2}(0.8)$

$P(0.8)^{3}$ -----------------------(3)

so from (1), (2), (3) we can see the following pattern

value after 1 year is P(0.8) or $P(0.8)^{1}$

value after 2 years is $P(0.8)^{2}$

value after 3 years is $P(0.8)^{3}$

so value after x years will be $P(0.8)^{x}$ ( whatever is the year, that is raised to power on 0.8)

So function is best described by exponential model

$y = P(0.8)^{x}$ where y is the value after x years

so thats the final answer

Solve the formula y = mx b for m. a. (y minus b) x c. startfraction y minus b over x endfraction b. y minus b minus x d. startfr

sweet-ann [11.9K]

The given equation of the formula, y = mx + b, on solving for m by isolating it gives, m = (y - b)/x, making option C the right choice.

In the question, we are given the formula y = mx + b and are asked to solve the given formula for m.

To solve the equation for m, we need to isolate m to one side of the equation, and all other variables to the other side. This can be done as follows:

The given equation is:

y = mx + b.

Changing the sides of the equation gives us:

mx + b = y.

Subtracting b from both sides of the equation gives us:

mx + b - b = y - b,

or, mx = y - b {Simplifying}.

Dividing both sides of the equation by x gives us:

mx/x = (y - b)/x,

or, m = (y - b)/x {Simplifying}.

Thus, we have now isolated m to one side of the equation.

Thus, the given equation of the formula, y = mx + b, on solving for m by isolating it gives, m = (y - b)/x, making option C the right choice.
