45:60 and 60:45 but then I am stuck. I only know 2 ways
Does this help at least a little?
The following statements are true:
The tree grows approximately 7 feet between years 5 and 7;
the tree stops growing at around 30 feet
In graphing the function, we see that the initial value, when x = 0, is 1 ft, not 2.
Additionally, we can see the values as the height increases; when the tree hits 15 feet, it continues to grow at around 1.5 feet every 0.4 years until it hits around 25 feet tall. Then it begins to slow down.
Answer:
Graph attached
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = 500(1 + r)^x; where r is the rate and x is the number of years.
500(1 + r)^2 = 551.25
(1 + r)^2 = 551.25/500 = 1.1025
1 + r = sqrt(1.1025) = 1.05
Therefore, the equation that represents y, the value of the item after x years is
y = 500(1.05)^x
