Find the line for each given equation in the problem.

If they cross each other ( at least one solution) it is consistent.

If they do not cross each other at all, it is inconsistent.

If a consistent system has only one answer it would be independent.

If a consistent system has infinite solutions ( this would be just a straight line) it would be dependent.

If there are no solutions, it is neither dependent or independent.

1. Both lines cross each other in one place, so this is consistent and independent.

2. Both lines cross each other in one place, so this is consistent and independent.

3. The two lines do not cross each other, so this is inconsistent.

There are no solutions, so this is neither dependent or independent.

4. Both lines cross each other in one place, so this is consistent and independent.

A boy starts the week with 3kg of rice, every day he cooks 0.6kg. How much rice will he have left after 4 days?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

1.8 Kg

Step-by-step explanation:

a week- 3kg rice

every day-0.6 kg rice

therefore, multiply 3 kg by 0.6kg

3kg x 0.6kg =1.8 kg

he will have 1.8 kg rice after 4 days

have a great day !

Every year after a new car is

slavikrds [6]

Answer: The value of the car after 3 years is $5,333.333

And no, the relationship is not linear, is an exponential decay.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that every year, the car loses 1/3 of its value.

So if the initial value of the car is V.

After one year, the new value of the car will be:

Value (1 year) = V - (1/3)*V = (2/3)*V

After another year, the value will be:

Value (2 years) = (2/3)*V - (1/3)*(2/3)*V = V*(2/3)^2

Ok, we already can see that this is an exponential decay.

(So no, this is not a linear relationship).

The value equation as a function of the number of years will be:

Value(N) = V*(2/3)^N

Then if the initial cost of a car is $18,000, and we want to know its value after 3 years, we need to replace V by $18,000 and N by 3 in the above equation:

Value(3) = $18,000*(2/3)^3 = $5,333.333

A manufacturing firm, specialising in making widgets, has overhead expenses (wages, utilities etc) of

7nadin3 [17]

C = 150000 + 17n

where,

C = Total Cost per year = Fixed Cost + Variable Cost

n = Number of Widgets produced each year

17n = Variable Cost

150000 = Fixed Cost

The exponential function f(x) = 3(5)x grows by a factor of 25 between x = 1 and x = 3. What factor does it grow by between x = 5

notsponge [240]

<h2> Question # 1</h2>

Answer:

25 is the factor which grows by between x = 5 and x = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the exponential function

$f\left(x\right)\:=\:3\left(5\right)^x$

The growth factor between $x=1$ and $x=3$ is given by:

$\left[3\left(5\right)^3\right]\div \left[3\left(5\right)^1\right]$

$\mathrm{Calculate\:within\:parentheses}\:\left[3\left(5\right)^3\right]\::\quad 375$

$\mathrm{Calculate\:within\:parentheses}\:\left[3\left(5\right)^1\right]\::\quad 15$

So,

= $375\div \:15$

= $25$

Similarly, growth factor between $x=5$ and $x=7$ is given by:

$\left[3\left(5\right)^7\right]\div \left[3\left(5\right)^5\right]$

= $\frac{3\cdot \:5^7}{3\cdot \:5^5}$

$\mathrm{Divide\:the\:numbers:}\:\frac{3}{3}=1$

= $\frac{5^7}{5^5}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$

$\frac{5^7}{5^5}=5^{7-5}$

= $5^{7-5}$

= $5^2$

= $25$

Therefore, 25 is the factor which grows by between x = 5 and x = 7.

<h2> Question # 2</h2>

Answer:

The population be in 24 years will be 27000.

Also, the population growth modeled by an exponential function as $y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$ is an exponential function.

The graph for $y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$ is also shown in attached figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a city that currently has a population of 1000 triples in size every 8 years.
what will the population be in 24 years?
Is the population growth modeled by a linear function or an exponential function?

As the city that currently has a population of 1000 triples in size every 8 years.

So, for this case

$y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$

where

$A$ = Initial population amount

$b$ = growth rate

$t$ = time

Substituting the values in the function

$y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$

$y=1000\cdot \:\:3^{\frac{1}{8}t}$

So, the population be in 24 years

$y=1000\cdot \:\:3^{\frac{1}{8}24}$

$3^{\frac{1}{8}\cdot \:24}=3^3$

$\:y=3^3\cdot 1000$

$y=1000\cdot \:\:27$

$y=27000$

Therefore, the population be in 24 years will be 27000.

Also, the population growth modeled by an exponential function as $y=A\cdot \left(b\right)^t$ is an exponential function.

<h2 /><h2> Question # 3</h2>

Answer:

the graph of the function will translate horizontally 3/5 units right.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the effect on the graph of the function $f(x)=2x$ when it is replaced by f(x- 3/5).

We already have an idea that rule for horizontal translation:

Given a function $f(x)$ , and a constant c > 0, the function $g(x) = f(x - a)$ represents a horizontal shift c units to the right from f(x). The function $h(x) = f(x + a)$ represents a horizontal shift c units to the left.
