Tell whether the function shows growth or decay and why. f(x) = 6(1.2)x

1 answer:

4 0

This function shows growth because the value that the base value of 6 is being multiplied by is 1.2. If the multiplication value is greater than 1, the function will grow. However, if it is less than 1, the function will decay.

Given that R=9x+8y find x when y=8 and R=4

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

R = 9x + 8y

4 = 9x + 8*8

4 = 9x + 64

Subtract 64 from both sides

4 - 64 = 9x + 64 - 64

-60 = 9x

Divide both sides by 9

-60/9 = 9x/9

-20/3 = x

x = -6 2/3

Guess the rule and add the next number in the sequence.<br> 7, 10, 16, 25, 37,

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first closely examine the sequence for any mathematical correlation between the terms of sequence.

It is visualized that the series is progressing with addition of increasing even numbers starting with +6 ( +6, +8, +10, +12, +14, +16, +18 …) in the previous term to obtain next terms of the series. This logic continues for entire series.

The given series is:

1 ,7 ,15 ,25 ,37

Starting with first number of the series

1 + 6 = 7

7 + 8 = 15

15 + 10 = 25

25 + 12 = 37

37 + 14 = 51

51 + 16 = 67

67 + 18 = 85

The extended series is

1, 7, 15, 25, 37, 51, 67, 85
