Answer:
x = (+ - ) 9
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 = 81
u know how u can sometimes cancel something out by doing the opposite.
This is one of those times as well. the opposite of ^2 = square root.
so if we take the square root of both sides, this will cancel out the^2 on the left side.
sqrt (x^2) = sqrt(81)
x = (+-) 9.....thats a positive and a negative sign...because the sqrt of 81 is both 9 and -9.
I really can't see what you wrote
Answer:
m = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
y = mx + b ( subtract b from both sides )
y - b = mx ( divide both sides by x )
= m
Answer:
Eric's expression is :

and Andrea's is :

In Eric's expression, 20 represents the initial amount of substance with which he has started the experiment.
is the amount of substance left after each time period (in this case, each week).The variable w in this case represents the number of weeks.
Andrea's expression can be written as :

The one outside of parentheses represents the initial amount of the substance. The one inside of parentheses represents 100% of the original amount of the substance. 0.5 represents the 50% of the substance that is lost each time period. The variable w in this case represents the number of weeks.
