Answer:
Every week, the mass of the sample is multiplied by a factor of 0.81
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's rewrite the base and find the expression whose exponent is just ttt.
(0.97)7t+5=(0.97)7t⋅(0.97)5=(0.977)t⋅(0.97)5
Therefore, we can rewrite the modeling function as follows.
M(t)=(0.97)5⋅(0.977)t
According to this model, the mass of the sample is multiplied by 0.977 every week. Rounding this to two decimal places, we get 0.977≈0.81.
The answer is 73, simple math

Answer:
3000 books
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the author receives a one time fee of $2500. On top of that, the author will receive $1.50 per book sold. This is a constant rate and is linear because of this. We can use y=mx+b. M is the slope or rate of change. M here is $1.50. B is the starting value which is $2500 here.
We write y=1.5x+2500.
This equation will give the amount of money the author earns for x number of books sold. If y=7000 for the author earning 7000. We will use inverse operations to isolate and find x.
7000=1.5x+2500
7000-2500=1.5x+2500-2500
4500=1.5x
4500/1.5=x
3000=x
