Options: 
(A) f(x) = 70(1.17)^x
(B) f(x) = 82(1.17)^x
(C) f(x) = 70(2.2)^x
(D) f(x) = 82(2.2)^x
Base is 2005 salary, 70,000.

Change is 82,000/70,000 = 1.17

Correct answer is: A) f(x) = 70(1.17)^x

We can make use of the general formula for the geometric series to generate the function representing the average annual salary.
an = a0(r)^(n-1)

Or
f(x) = a0(r)^(x - 1)

Plugging in the given values for the year 2005 and 2006 to ge the value of r.
82000 = 70000 (r)^(1-1)
r = 1.1714

Therefore, the function is:
f(x) = 70,000 (1.1714)^(x-1)

3 On a coordinate grid, the location of a lighthouse is at L, and the location of a buoy is at B. At noon, a ship is at the midp
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

(\frac{1}{2}, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula, M(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}), we can find the coordinates that represents the position of the ship at noon.

Let L(-4, 7) = (x_1, y_1) (given on the coordinate plane)

B(5, -3) = (x_2, y_2) (given also)

Plug in the values into the formula and solve as follows:

M(\frac{-4 + 5}{2}, \frac{7 +(-3)}{2})

M(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{7 - 3}{2})

M(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{4}{2})

M(\frac{1}{2}, 2)

Position of the ship at noon is best represented at (\frac{1}{2}, 2)
