The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

y=1500(0.937)^t

Explanation:

An exponential function is of the form

y=a\times b^x, where a is the initial population, b is 1 plus the amount of yearly change, and x is the number of years.

For our problem, a, the initial population, is 1500.

The yearly change is 6.3%; 6.3% = 6.3/100 = 0.063.  Since it is decreasing, this is negative; 1+(-0.063) = 0.937.

We use t as the number of years.

This gives us

y=1500(0.937)^t

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

5x +3y>-15

5(0)+3(0)

0+0=   0 > -15

Step by step explanation

We have to create a scenario that leads to an inequality of the form ax + b > c.

<em> </em>

<em>Word problem: A family went to an park. Entry fee of the park for a family is $20 and the cost of a ride is $10 per person. The family spent more than $100 on that ride. </em>

The required inequality is

Subtract 20 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 10.

It means the number of rides must be greater than 8.
