Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function which crosses through (1,3) and (2,9) will have a base of 3 since the y values are multiples of 3.

3^1 = 3

3^2 = 9

This means that the function is y = 3^x.

y = 3x

Substitute the two points into the equation y = abx, giving 3 = ab1 and 9 = ab2.

Since a = a, then  

3

b1

=  

9

b2

, rearranged yields 3b2 = 9b1 → 3b2 − 9b = 0 → b(3b − 9) = 0

Thus, b = 0 or b = 3.

A curve of exponential function never drop below the x-axis, ignore any values of b that are less than or equal to zero.

Therefore, insert b = 3 into  

3

b1

= a and  

9

b2

= a → a = 1 for both equations.

y = abx

y = (1)(3x)

y = 3x

Answer: 2nd one

Step-by-step explanation: Look at the options. In all of the options, the number of 0's is 3 so you don't have to look for the zero's. Next look at the one's. The first 2 have 2 ones and the next 2 have 3. The number of ones in the data is 2 so you can eliminate the last 2. Then look at the 2's between the top 2. In the first one, there is 2 and in the second one there is only one. In the data table, there is one 2 so the answer has to be the 2nd one. Hope this helps :)

The perimeter of a square can represent by 16x + 24. Willa wants to write an equivalent expression for the perimeter that shows
Maslowich
The diagram shows that all the sides of the rectangle are congruent. Since the perimeter all of the sides added up, all you have to do is divide the perimeter by 4.

Therefore, the perimeter, which is 16x + 24, can be divided by 4 to find the length of one side. 

16x + 24/4 = length of one side. So, the length of one side is 4x + 6.

Hope this helped!

ASAP PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN TOO!!!!!!
VARVARA [1.3K]
Looking at number 4, you first have to look at the information that you have:
On tuesday he practiced for 1 5/6 hrs
Monday he practiced for 7/10 hrs
He is supposed to practice for 1 1/4 hr.
You could write questions like:
How much more did Marco practice on Tuesday than he is supposed to practice?
This works because it does indeed involve subtraction, you would be subtracting the amount that he should have practiced from the amount of time that he did practice. 
If I didn't answer the question, please message me and I will clarify!
