??? Do you mean 17 divided by 2 cuz that's 8.5
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
This is exponential growth, and to my understanding, the format goes:
<em>initial amount (percent growth/ decay)^time</em>
percent growth = (<em>decimal percent + 1)</em>
<em>percent decay = (1 - decimal percent) </em>
Your equation:
1500(1.02)^t
Using the above format, 1500 appears to be the initial amount, which increases by 2% per annum.
i think
Answer:
All of them are polynomials except c.
Step-by-step explanation:
Polynomials are in the form:

You can see here there are no extra symbols like square root, cube root, absolute value, and so on on the variable x...
We also don't have division by a variable. All the exponents are whole numbers.
a) While it has a square root, it is not on a variable so a is a polynomial. The exponents on the variables are whole numbers.
b) b is a polynomial also because all the exponents are whole numbers.
c) This is not a polynomial because there is a square root on a variable.
d) This is a polynomial. All the exponents are whole numbers.
