Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=a(b)^{x}

This is a exponential function

where

a is the initial value

b is the base

we know that

The initial value of the function is the value of f(x) when the value of x is equal to zero

substitute x=0 in the function

f(0)=a(b)^{0}

Remember that any number to the zero power is one

so

(b)^{0}=1

substitute

f(0)=a*1=a

Is this proportion true 12/15=47/50<br>16/36=12/27<br>15/20=24/26<br>or 4/16=2/14
jekas [21]
For <span>12/15=47/50, we multiply 12/15 by (1/3)/(1/3) to get 4/5. For 47/50, we multiply it by (1/10)/(1/10) to get the same denominator and 4/7/5. They are not equal.

For 16/36 and 12/27, we'll notice that 36 and 27 are both multiples of 9, so we need to get that as the denominator! Multiply 16/36 by (1/4)/(1/4) because 9 goes into 36 4 times and 12/27 by (1/3)/(1/3) due to that 27 goes into 9 3 times, we get 4/9=4/9 - these are equal!

I challenge you to get the rest of them on your own using my techniques!</span>

What is 15% of 60?? Can someone plz tell me how to calculate this as well??? Thanks!!!
earnstyle [38]
To convert a percentage to a decimal you move the decimal two places to the left. Therefore:

15.% becomes .15

You then multiply this decimal to the number you are trying to find the percentage of.

.15 × 60 = 9.

9 is 15% of 60.
