Answer:

C. When the survey was initially conducted average sales of smartphones was 1.7 millions units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the average annual sales of smartphones, in million units, n years after the survey is conducted is modeled by function p(n)=1.7\cdot b^n, where the parameter b is an unknown positive base.


We are asked to find the true statement about our given function.

A. If b= 1.45, the annual growth rate of the sales of smartphones is 145%.

Since we know that b equals (1+r) for growth function, where r is in decimal form.

If b=1.45, it means that the annual growth rate will be 45% as 0.45 is decimal form of 45%, therefore, statement A is not true.

B.  If b= 1.02, annual sales of smartphones will double in 2 years.

If b=1.02, it means that the annual growth rate will be 2% as 0.02 is decimal form of 2%, therefore, statement B is not true.

C. When the survey was initially conducted average sales of smartphones was 1.7 millions units.

Since we know that an exponential function is in form y=a*b^x, where a in initial value of function. We can see from our given function that a equals 1.7, therefore option C is a true statement.

D. The average sales of smartphones increases by 1.7 millions units every year.

Since our function is not a linear function, instead it is an exponential function, so rate of change can not be constant.

Therefore, option D is not true regarding our given function.

PLEASE HELP! DUE AT 11:59 PST
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Y = 15x + 30 and 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

She gets $15 per hour so her income is based on her hours, but we don't know what that is yet so, 15x.

She gets a solid $30 every week that is straight forward

To solve the function

150 = 15x + 30

subtract 30 from both sides

120 = 15x

divide 15 from both sides

8 = x

or

x = 8

You got this :)

Can someone help with the two triangle questions (will mark brainliest!!)
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: Number 1 is c=89 ft

Number 2 is b=3 cm

Step-by-step explanation: a²+b²=c²

For number 1, 39 ft is a and 80 ft is b so

39²+80²=c² so 39² is 39x39=1521 and 80² is 80x80=6400 so 6400+1521=7921

7921=c² and the square root of 7921 is 89 so c=89 ft

For number 2, a=1.6 cm and c=3.4 cm so 3.4²-1.6²=b²

3.4² so 3.4x3.4 which is 11.56

1.6² so 1.6x1.6 which is 2.56

11.56-2.56=c² and 11.56-2.56=9

Square root of 9 is 3 so b=3

So number 2 answer is b=3 cm

I hope this helps
