This is the concept of proportionality, given that z is directly proportional to x and inversely proportional to y then:
zαx/y
z=(kx)/y
where;
k is the constant of proportionality given by:
k=zy/x
but when x=3 and =6 then z=9.5
therefore:
k=(9.5*6)/3
k=19
hence the formula for z will be:
z=(19x)/y
the value of z when x=8 and y=12 will be:
z=(19*8)/12
z=12 2/3

What function is increasing? will give brainlist !
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A.

f(x) = (0.5)^{x}

Derivative of the given function,

f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(0.5)^x

      = (0.5)^x[\text{ln}(0.5)]

      = -(0.693)(0.5)^{x}

Since derivative of the function is negative, the given function is decreasing.

Option B. f(x) = 5^x

f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(5)^x

      = (5)^x[\text{ln}(5)]

      = 1.609(5)^x

Since derivative is positive, given function is increasing.

Option C. f(x) = (\frac{1}{5})^x

f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(\frac{1}{5})^x

      = \frac{d}{dx}(5)^{(-x)}

      = -5^{-x}.\text{ln}(5)

Since derivative is negative, given function is decreasing.

Option D. f(x) = (\frac{1}{15})^x

                f'(x) = -15^{-x}[\text{ln}(15)]

                       = -2.708(15)^{-x}

Since derivative is negative, given function is decreasing.

Option (B) is the answer.
