So let’s imagine this on a number line…so we know that the fish starts at -17 1/3 on the number line but he dives (that means go lower in our number line) 6 1/2 feet downward so let’s set up an equation:
-17 1/3 - 6 1/2
Now, let’s subtract the two integers by finding the least common denominator of 2 and 3 so it can be easier to solve in this case it’s 6…then let’s set up our new equation:
-17 2/6 - 6 3/6
We know it’s a negative number since we are subtracting a negative number and our final answer is -23 5/6
For the given table, the difference between two consecutive y terms are

It means the difference is constant. So the given function is in arithmetic progression.
And to find the equation, representing the given series, we will use the formula for the nth term of arithmetic series, which is

Here,

So we will get

The answer is B: Yes because each input has only one output
Answer:
They are vertical angles.
Step-by-step explanation:
The general formula for exponential growth and decays is:

if k>0 then then it is an exponential growth function. If k<0 then the function represents an exponential decay.
Now we need to classify each of the functions:
1.
The function

can be wrtten as:

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=2, therefore this is an exponential growth.
2.
The function

can be written as:

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-4, therefore this is an exponential decay.
3.
The function

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-1, therefore this is an exponential decay.
