Answer:
y=1/3x+5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y=1/3x+b
1=1/3(-2)+b (plug in ya points)
1=-2/3+b
5/3=b
y=1/3x+5/3
IF you mean

, then the following would be a solution:
First add 16 to both sides of the equation:

Now divide both sides of the equation by 3:

Take the square root of both sides to solve for "X", or simply solve by inspection: "what number(s) can be squared to get 49?"
Answer: -7 and 7 So the smallest solution would be "-7"
The answer is B) The initial number of bacteria is 57, and the growth rate is 31% per hour.
The expression shown is an <em>exponential expression</em>. An exponential expression usually takes the form
, as this one does. A represents the <em>initial value</em>, in this case-the initial number of bacteria. B represents the <em>growth rate</em>. When it is an increasing growth rate, it will begin with 1, because it will have everything it had before, plus the percent increase, the decimal portion. In this case, a=57, and b=0.31.
