Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you plot J and K in a coordinate plane, you see that the line formed is a perfectly horizontal line through y = 2. In order for this triangle to be an isosceles, the third x-coordinate would have to be located midway through the x-coordinates of the base. The midpoint between the x-coordinates is found by adding the 2 x-coordinates and dividing the sum by 2. -6+\3 = -3 and -3/2 = -3/2. So the x-coordinate is -3.2 or -1.5
This is an exponential equation that can be represented by the following:
f(x) = a(b)^x
In this case...
25143 = a(0.66)^3
25143 is the population after 3 hours.
3 is the amount of time in hours.
0.66 represents the percent of the population remaining after each hour (66% as there is a 34% decline each hour).
We must solve for a, which is the initial population.
First, simplify (0.66)^3 to 0.2874.
25143 = 0.2874a
Now divide both sides by 0.2874 to isolate a.
a = 87455
There were initially 87,455 people within the city. I wouldn't want to be in that place!
Answer:
6x + 6y just add all the 2x then 2y
