Answer:

a. 14 and 14= (-1)56+1(44)

b. 3 and 3= (-4)60+3(81)

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1: GCD is the highest common divisor for both numbers without reminder

a. GCD of 56 and 42 = 14

b GCD of 81 and 60 = 3

Case 2: Express GCD as a Linear combination.

a. GCD = 14 which is also the difference between 56 and 42

Therefore

14= (-1)56+1(44) expresses 14 as a linear combination of 56 and 44.

b. GCD=3, we need to look for a multiple of 60 and 81 that their differences would be 3

Therefore the multiples are:

For 60 = 240 (60×4)

For 81 = 243 (81×3)

3= (-4)60+3(81) expresses 3 as a linear combination of 81 and 60

Find the formula for an exponential function that passes through the two points given.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

y = 7(3^x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x_1,y_1) = (0,7)

(x_2,y_2) = (4,567)

Required

Determine the formula

An exponential function is of the form:

y = ab^x

For point (x_1,y_1) = (0,7)

7 = ab^0

7 = a*1

7 = a

a = 7

For point (x_2,y_2) = (4,567)

567 = ab^4

Substitute 7 for a

567 = 7*b^4

Divide both sides by 7

81 = b^4

Take 4th root of both sides

\sqrt[4]{81} =\sqrt[4]{b^4}

\sqrt[4]{81} =b

b = \sqrt[4]{81}

b = 3

Substitute 7 for a and 3 for b in y = ab^x

y = 7 * 3^x

y = 7(3^x)
