Answer:

2x + 4y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Wheat flour</u>

4 pounds for $8 ⇒ 1 pound for $8/4 = $2

<u>Rye flour</u>

5 pounds for $20 ⇒ 1 pound for $20/5 = $4

<u>Equation for total:</u>

2x + 4y = 12

State weather the equation represents exponential growth, exponential decay or neither, 30 POINTS EASY

RSB [31]

Answer:

Exponential Decay

Step-by-step explanation:

It's exponential growth when your base value is > 1. Example:

1.3ˣ, 2ˣ, 7ˣ, 999ˣ

It's exponential decay when the base value is < 1. Example:

0.9ˣ, 0.45ˣ, (1/2)ˣ, 0.79ˣ, .999ˣ

It's neither when the base value = 1. Example:

1ˣ

$(2^8\cdot3^{-5}\cdot6^0)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{3^{-2}}{2^3}\right)^4\cdot2^{28}\\\\=(2^8)^{-2}\cdot(3^{-5})^{-2}\cdot1^{-2}\cdot\dfrac{(3^{-2})^4}{(2^3)^4}\cdot2^{28}\\\\=2^{-16}\cdot3^{10}\cdot\dfrac{3^{-8}}{2^{12}}\cdot2^{28}\\\\=2^{-16}\cdot2^{28}\cdot2^{-12}\cdot3^{10}\cdot3^{-8}\\\\=2^{-16+28+(-12)}\cdot3^{10+(-8)}\\\\=2^0\cdot3^2=1\cdot9=\boxed{9}\\\\Used:\\\\(a\cdot b)^n=a^n\cdot b^n\\\\(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}$
