Which points of the following points are solutions to the equation 3x-4y-8=12
1 answer:
Answer:
(0, -5), (4, -2), (-16, -17)
Step-by-step explanation:
I attach your full question in the image below
The equation is
3x-4y-8=12
Which can be rewritten as
3x-4y =12 +8
3x-20 = 4y
y = (3/4)*x - 5
We need to check each individual case
(0,-5)
y = (3/4)*(0) - 5
y = -5
True
(4,-2)
y = (3/4)*(4) - 5
y = -2
True
(8,2)
y = (3/4)*(8) - 5
y = 1
False
(-16,-17)
y = (3/4)*(-16) - 5
y = -17
True
(-1,-8)
y = (3/4)*(-1) - 5
y = -23/4
False
(-40,-34)
y = (3/4)*(-40) - 5
y = -35
False
(0,-5) (4,-2) and (-16,-17) are the solutions

We have been given that Jackson purchases a new car for $48,000. The car's value can be modeled by the following exponential function: where y represents the car's value and t represents time in years. We are asked to find the decay rate as a percentage.
We know that an exponential decay function is in form , where,
y = Final value,
a = Initial value,
r = Decay rate in decimal form,
x = time.
Upon comparing our given function with standard decay function
, we can see that
.
Let us solve for r.
Let us convert 0.24 into percentage.
Therefore, the decay rate is 24%.
