x is the variable
<em>In mathematics, a variable is a symbol; in this case, X.</em>
Answer: The formula for exponential growth is y = a(1 + r)^x, and the formula for exponential decay is y = a(1 - r)^x, with r being the rate of growth/decay. :)

Answer: Negative</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
3/7 = 0.42857 approximately
Pick a number between that value and 5, not including either endpoint. Let's say we pick x = 2
Plug x = 2 into the f(x) function
f(x) = (x - 5)(2x + 7)(7x-3)
f(2) = (2 - 5)(2*2 + 7)(7*2-3)
f(2) = (2 - 5)(4 + 7)(14-3)
f(2) = (-3)(11)(11)
f(2) = -363
The actual result doesn't matter. All we're after is whether the result is positive or negative. We see the result is negative. This means f(x) is negative when 3/7 < x < 5. The f(x) curve is below the x axis on this interval.
The range is a statistical property that consists of the difference between the biggest and the smallest given number.
In our case, the biggest is 17.3 million and the smallest is 3.3 million:
17.3 - 3.3 = 14.0
The range is 14.0 million acres (option D, 4th option).

Happy homework/ study/ exam!
Answer:
the shaded area is 26, the non-shaded area 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The red shaded lines had numbers as well so I add all of them up.
The non-shaded lines didn't have a number, but the bottom had the same length of the top line so therefore your answer is 26 for Shaded, and 16 for non-shaded.
