Exercise 1:
exponential decay:
The function is given by:
y = A (b) ^ ((1/3) * t)
Where,
A = 600
We look for b:
(480/600) * (100) = 80%
b = 0.8
Substituting:
y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * t)
We check for t = 6
y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * 6)
y = 384
Answer:
exponential decay:
y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * t)
Exercise 2:
linear:
The function is given by:
y = ax + b
Where,
a = -60 / 2 = -30
b = 400
Substituting we have:
y = -30 * x + 400
We check for x = 4
y = -30 * 4 + 400
y = 280
Answer:
linear:
y = -30 * x + 400
Exercise 3:
exponential growth:
The function is given by:
y = A (b) ^ ((1/3) * t)
Where,
A = 512
We look for b:
(768/512) * (100) = 150%
b = 1.5
Substituting:
y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * t)
We check for t = 4
y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * 4)
y = 1152
Answer:
exponential growth:
y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * t)
Answer:
130
Step-by-step explanation:
The Honda will cost 24480 - 1400 = 23080
The Toyota will cost 25500 - 0.1 * 25500 = 25500 - 2550 = 22950.
So the Toyota will cost 130 less
Answer: The required system of equations representing the given situation is

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Sam needs to make a long-distance call from a pay phone.
We are to write a system to represent the situation.
Let x represent the number of minutes Sam talked on the phone and y represents the total amount that he paid for the call.
According to the given information,
with prepaid phone card, Sam will be charged $1.00 to connect and $0.50 per minute.
So, the equation representing this situation is

Also, if Sam places a collect call with the operator he will be charged $3.00 to connect and $0.25 per minute.
So, the equation representing this situation is

Thus, the required system of equations representing the given situation is

Answer:
(4,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
the graph goes up or down by 2 each time so 2x2=4
then half of -2 is -1
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
3/24 = 3/3*8 = 1/8
24/32 = 4*6/4*8 = 6/8
32/24 = 4*8/4*6 = 8/6
24/3 = 3*8/3 = 8/1 = 8
