Answer: The only correct answer is 8/18. See below
Step-by-step explanation:
All you need to do is divide the denominator of 9 into the denominator of each fraction, and multiply the numerator by the same factor like this:
4/9 = ?/36; 36/9 = 4; 4x4 =16, so we know that 4/9=16/36 NOT 20/36
4/9 = ?/18; 18/9 =2; 2x4 =8, so we know that 5/9 = 8/18 so YES.
4/9 = ?/45; 45/9=5; 5x4 = 20, so we know that 5/9 = 20/45 NOT 24/45
5/9 = ?/27; 27/9 =3; 3x5 = 15, so we know that 5/9 = 15/27 NOT 12/27

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential Functions:
y=ab^x
y=ab
x
a=\text{starting value = }550
a=starting value = 550
r=\text{rate = }18.8\% = 0.188
r=rate = 18.8%=0.188
\text{Exponential Decay:}
Exponential Decay:
b=1-r=1-0.188=0.812
b=1−r=1−0.188=0.812
\text{Write Exponential Function:}
Write Exponential Function:
y=550(0.812)^x
y=550(0.812)
x
Put it all together
\text{Plug in y-value:}
Plug in y-value:
60=550(0.812)^x
60=550(0.812)
x
\frac{60}{550}=\frac{550(0.812)^x}{550}
550
60
=
550
550(0.812)
x
Divide both sides by 550
0.109091=0.812^x
0.109091=0.812
x
\log 0.109091=\log 0.812^x
log0.109091=log0.812
x
Take the log of both sides
\log 0.109091=x\log 0.812
log0.109091=xlog0.812
use power rule to bring x to the front
\frac{\log 0.109091}{\log 0.812}=\frac{x\log 0.812}{\log 0.812}
log0.812
log0.109091
=
log0.812
xlog0.812
Divide both sides by log(0.812)
10.638757=x
10.638757=x
x\approx 11
x≈11
