Answer:
Written out the equation would look like f(x) = 55(1.06)^x
The graph would look something like the attached picture. (It intercepts with the y-axis at 55).
As the exercise says, the triangles are similar. So, we can set up proportions between correspondent sides.
In order to solve for x we can set up the proportion between the horizontal and vertical sides:
Solving this proportion for x implies
Now you can solve for m and p using the pythagorean theorem, because both triangles are right:
Then, we know that the hypothenuse of the big triangle is m+p, so we have
which implies
Fruits :
Y=10(h)
Flowers;
Y=8(h)
Given: h=6
Fruits:
10(6) = $60
Flowers:
8(6)= $48
Back to the question, how much more from picking fruits?
$60 - $48 = $12 more picking fruits.
Hope this helps!
