If by 104 and 103 you meant 10^4 and 10^3 the difference would be 10 because you subtract them as exponents and get 10^1 which is just 10. If you meant 104 and 103 as they are then the difference would be 6 as 104 x 6 is 6 more than 103 x 6.
The price of the sweater was reduced by 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Cost before reduction was $20. The cost after reduction was 12$. Cost reduced= cost before reduction - cost after reduction
Cost reduced= $20 - $12 = $8
Step 2; We must find how much of the cost was reduced from the initial cost i.e. how much $8 is to $20. To do this we must convert it into a percentage. We divide the $8 with the $20 to get a value. This value must be multiplied with a 100 to be converted into a percentage.
Cost by which sweater was reduced=
* 100 = 0.4 * 100 = 40
So the price of the sweater was reduced from $20 to $8 which equates to a reduction in 40%.
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that there is an exponential decay.
Also, the decrease is of constant rate 7.9% i.e. 0.079 each year.
Since, the initial amount of the species is atleast 26 million.
Thus, the inequality for the corresponding model will be,
,
where t is the time period for the decay and P is the population.
Moreover, is is given that the population cannot be less than 2 million.
So, we get,
.
Hence, the inequalities to determine the possible number of insects over time are given by,

.
Answer:
19.) r = -4 20.) r = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
19.) Because we know the slope and have some points, we can use point-slope form to find the equation.
Point-slope form is:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Substitute the numbers into the equation:
y - 3 = 7/6(x - 1)
y - 3 = 7/6x -7/6
y = 7/6x + 11/6
Now that we know the equation, we can put in the x value to find the y (In this case, y = r):
r = 7/6(-5) + 11/6
r = -35/6 + 11/6
r = -4
20.) Because the slope is undefined, that means on the graph, the line will appear straight and vertical. This means the equation will be something like x = a number.
We have the point (1,4). Since we know that the x value will never change, we know that r will have to equal 1 as well.
r = 1
