f(x) = 
In this exponential function , the base is 
if base is less than 1 then it a decreasing function
We can verify it using a table
We plug in some x and values and find out f(x) to get point for the graph
x -----> f(x)
-1 -----> 2
0 ------> 1
1 -------> 0.5
The table is same as the points in first graph.
So first graph represents the graph of f(x) = 
Answer:
3) 27
4) 80
5) 45
6) 48
7) 42
8) 4.2
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Plot a point at (0, 3000), then subtract 10 for every second that passes by.
B) The slope is negative because the skydiver is falling and the graph is plotting his descent, his x intercept is at (300, 0) which means he will touch land after 300 seconds
To find the the x intercept, make y equal 0 so 0=-10x+3000, subtract by 3000 on each side, and you end up with -3000=-10x, you then divide both sides by -10 and you end up 300=x or x=300
Whats the question ? Are you trying to figure out how much he has left ?
Answer:
17 adult shirts were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
x = adult shirts and y = children shirts
x + y = 40......adult shirts + child shirts = 40 total shirts
17x + 13y = 588...$ 17 for each adult shirt (x) + $ 13 for each child shirt (y) = $ 588
these are the equations we will be using.
now lets rearrange the first one....x + y = 40......x = 40 - y.....now sub 40 - y in for x back into the second equation
17x + 13y = 588
17(40 - y) + 13y = 588
680 - 17y + 13y = 588
-17y + 13y = 588 - 680
-4y = - 92
y = -92/-4
y = 23 <=== so there were 23 child shirts sold
x + y = 40
x + 23 = 40
x = 40 - 23
x = 17 <===== and 17 adult shirts sold
check...
17x + 13y = 588
17(17) + 13(23) = 588
289 + 299 = 588
588 = 588 (correct)
