- × 9x = -9x
- × +8 = -8

-9x - 2x = -11x
-8 - -10 = +2

answer = -11x +2

Answer: C) -11x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First you have to distribute the negative sign to the numbers in the parentheses...so it would be then become (-9x-8) + (-2x+5)

2) Now you add like terms, so the x's with the x's and the constants with the constants... -9x-2x is -11x and -8+10 is 2

3) So your final answer is -11x+2

Answer:

C. $N(t)=150\cdot 3^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the exponential function $n(t)=ab^t.$

From the table, $N(t)=150$ at $t=0,$ thus

$N(0)=a\cdot b^0\\ \\150=a\cdot 1\ [\text{ because }b^0=1]$

Also $N(t)=450$ at $t=1,$ thus

$N(1)=a\cdot b^1=a\cdot b.$

Since $a=150,$ substitute it into the second equation

$450=150\cdot b\\ \\b=\dfrac{450}{150}\\ \\b=3$

and the expression for the exponential function is

$N(t)=150\cdot 3^t$
