Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential functions are represented in the form
, where a is the initial value and b is the multiplier.
Here, we see that when x = 0, y = 4. This means that 4 is our initial value, or a. You can look at the a variable almost being like the y-intercept of a graph.
Next, we must solve for b. We can do 16 ÷ 4 to find the slope, or multiplier of this function, because 16 is 1 input x-value up from 0. 16 ÷ 4 = 4.
So, we now have all the needed variables, so we plug them into the formula

To find the gcf you have to wright down the factors of both the numbers, all of them. Then, find the one that is the greatest number, but both 36 and 27 have, which would be 9
There would be 80 women.
Here's the work:
120 divided by 3 = 40
If the ratio is 3:2, there is always one less woman then men, so you subtract the 40 men in a group and you get your answer of 80
Hope I helped!! :)
X=7 and y=4 are the correct equations
