Answer: -9/7
Explanation: subtract both numbers because they are negativeand you get -9/7
The bottom one
Basically the question is what graph shows a number below or equal to -1
Answer:
none of the above
Step-by-step explanation:
You can try the points in the equations (none works in any equation), or you can plot the points and lines (see attached). <em>You will not find any of the offered answer choices goes through the given points</em>.
___
You can start with the 2-point form of the equation of a line. For points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) that equation is ...
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)·(x -x1) +y1
Filling in the given points, we get ...
y = (3 -1)/(2 -4)·(x -4) +1
y = 2/(-2)(x -4) +1 . . . . . simplify a bit
y = -x +4 +1 . . . . . . . . . simplify more
y = -x +5 . . . . . . . . . . . slope-intercept form
Answer:
f=ab/a+b
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for f.
1/f=1/a+1/b
This is an exponential decay problem.
Using the equation Y = a *(1-rate)^time
where Y is the future value given as 12,000 and a is the starting value given as 13,000.
The rate is also given as 5%.
The equation becomes:
12,000 = 13,000(1-0.05)^x
12,000 = 13,000(0.95)^x
Divide each side by 13000:
12000/13000 = 0.95^x/13000
12/13 = 0.95^x
Use the natural log function:
x = ln(12/13) / ln(0.95)
x = 1.56 years. ( this will equal 12,000
Round to 2 years it will be less than 12000.
