We can use the slope formula to find the slope.

2 + 5 / 4 - 0
7/4
The slope is 7/4, or 1.75
2/20 = 1/10 = 3/30 = 4/40
so 3 equivalent ratios can be 1/10 (or 1:10), 3/30 (or 3:30), 4/40 (or 4:40)
Given:
Growth rate = 30% decrease
To find:
The growth factor associated with the given growth rate.
Solution:
The general exponential function is:


Where, a is the initial value, r is the growth rate in decimal and
is the growth factor.
It is given that the growth rate is 30% decrease. So,



Now,




Therefore, the growth factor is 0.7.
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Arrange 6x + y= -5, -6x + 12y=96 vertically:
6x + y= -5
-6x + 12y=96 Now combine like terms:
--------------------
13y = 91
Solving for y by dividing both sides by 13: y = 7
Find x by substituting 7 for y in the second equation: -6x + 12(7) = 96
Then -6x = -84 + 96, or:
-6x = 12, and so x = -2
