In order to sole the problem you need to create an equation to model what you are trying to do.
You end up with an equation looking like
25000*0.95^t
25000 is the starting value when t=0
95% is the amount remaining after the 5% decay
0.95 is being raised to the power of t to determine how many times it has decayed
When t=3 the equation should be
25000*0.95^3=21434.375
Answer: 3 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, 6 yellow marbles, 8 black marbles, 4 silver marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
I know these are the correct number of marbles because I set up these numbers as fractions and solved for x.
For examples, 2/16 of the marbles are red. 2/16=x/24
You would do this because we are trying to find the number of marbles that are red out of the 24 marbles.
Next, we would do 24 divided by 16= 1.5 Then 1.5 times 2=3
You would follow this rule for each fraction of marbles in order to find the true number of marbles out of 24.
Answer:
(-6, 4)
Step-by-step explanation
translation rule: (x+1,y-3)
(-7+1, 7-3)
(-6, 4)
26, 24, 28 could be the answer
