Answer:
1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that 2^4 - 2^3 = 16 - 8 = 8 = 2^3
In a similar way 2^6 - 2^5 = 64 - 32 = 32 = 2^5.
So 2^99 - 2^98 = 2^98 , 2^98 - 2^97 = 2^97 , 2^97 - 2^96 = 2^96 and so on.
Therefore when we come to the last 2 terms we have 2^1 - 2^0 = 2 - 1
= 1 , so the answer is 1.
I disagree with the student because the slope is the rate of change. The slope would be 10 because the rocks are increasing by 10 every month.
18% because take the first digits of each number and put them together lol
Answer:
y = 2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find the slope. You find the slope by using the formula y2-y1/x2-x1. (2, 1) and (4, 5) are our points. Let's find our values.
y2= 5
y1= 1
x2 = 4
x1 = 2
Plug in the numbers into the equation. 5 - 1 is 4. 4 - 2 is 2. 4/2 is 2. There. Our slope is 2.
Step 2: Find the b value. Keep in mind that an equation in point-slope form is y = mx + b, where m = the slope, and b = the y-intercept. For this part, you will plug in one of the points as x and y to find the b value. let's use point (4, 5)
The equation then becomes 5 = 2(4) + b. As we know, 2 * 4 is 8. Subtract 8 on both sides of the equation to cancel out the right side and isolate the b variable. 5 - 8 is -3. Even if you use the other point for the equation (1 = 2(2) +b), you should get the same answer of -3.
