Because there are less pieces the whole is split up into. For instance, if you have 1 bag of cookies, you would get more cookies per person if it was split between 2 people than if it was split between 10, because each person gets more of the whole, and there's less people to split up that whole.
since you have an equal amount of pieces from each, the whole that was split into the least pieces, or the number with the smaller denominator will be larger since the pieces will be larger

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!!

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function is of the form:  y =a(b)^x ....[1] where a is the initial value, x is any real number and b is the growth factor  

Also, the b value (growth factor) has been replaced either by (1 + r) or by (1 - r).

Then, the growth "rate" (r) is determined as b = 1 + r.

and the decay "rate" (r) is determined as b = 1 - r

  • If b> 1, then it is exponential growth function.
  • if 0<b< 1. then it is exponential decay function.

Also, b = 1+ 4

Given the equation:  y = 50(1.15)^x

On comparing given equation  with [1] we get;

a = 50 and b = 1.15

Since, b = 1.15 > 1

Therefore, the given equation represents the exponential growth.

(A)

Yes, this y = 50(1.15)^x equation represents the exponential growth.

(B)

Initial value (a) = 50

(C)

Here growth factor, b = 1.15

and

1+ r = 1.15.

⇒r = 0.15\%

Dilate the triangle with a scale factor of 2 and a center of dilation at the origin
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

To dilate the figure by a factor of 2, I will multiply the x and y-value of each point by 2. I plotted all the new points to find the new triangle. To dilate the figure by a factor of 2, I will multiply the x and y-value of each point by 2.

The picture below shows a dilation with a scale factor of 2. This means that the image, A', is twice as large as the pre-image A. Like other transformations, prime notation is used to distinguish the image fromthe pre-image.

Step-by-step explanation:

ur welcome
