For this case what you should know is that both functions are of the potential type.
We have then that
y = 2 * 2 ^ x This function grows exponentially upwards.
y = -2 * 5 ^ x This function grows exponentially downwards.
Answer See attached graphics.
Step-by-step explanation:
you must have made a typo here.
none of the answer options are correct for the given problem.
let me just show you what you told me, and how I can solve at least this :
2a/4 = b/4
this simply means (multiply both sides by 4) :
2a = b
so, 5b is then (multiplying both sides by 5) :
5×2a = 5b
10a = 5b
but again, "10a" is not among the offered answers.
so, I don't know if you made a mistake with the basic problem or with the answer options.
So,
0.2(n - 6) = 2.8
Distribute.
0.2n - 1.2 = 2.8
Add 1.2 to both sides.
0.2n = 4
Divide both sides by .2.
n = 20
Check.
0.2(20 - 6) = 2.8
Simplify inside parentheses.
0.2(14) = 2.8
Multiply.
2.8 = 2.8 This checks.
S = {2.8}
