That equation would be an exponential decay because as x gets bigger, the f(x) gets smaller.

i.e

y=16.5(1.025)^(1/1) = 16.9 rounded

y=16.5(1.025)^(1/2) = 8.5 rounded

y=16.5(1.025)^(1/3) = 5.6 rounded

Answer:

5. (B) Y= 3x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

$y-9=3(x-1)\\y -9 =3x-3\\y= 3x-3+9\\y = 3x+6\\\\Slope-intercept form = y=mx+b\\\\y = 3x+6$

The power generated by an electrical circuit (in watts) as function of its current x (in amperes) is modeled by: P(x)=-12x^2 +12

Minchanka [31]

Given:

The power generated by an electrical circuit (in watts) as function of its current x (in amperes) is modeled by:

$P(x)=-12x^2+120x$

To find:

The current that will produce the maximum power.

Solution:

We have,

$P(x)=-12x^2+120x$

Here, leading coefficient is negative. So, it is a downward parabola.

Vertex of a downward parabola is the point of maxima.

If a parabola is $f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$ , then

$Vertex=\left(\dfrac{-b}{2a},f(\dfrac{-b}{2a})\right)$

In the given function, a=-12 and b=120. So,

$-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{120}{2(-12)}$

$-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{120}{-24}$

$-\dfrac{b}{2a}=5$

Putting x=5 in the given function, we get

$P(5)=-12(5)^2+120(5)$

$P(5)=-12(25)+600$

$P(5)=-300+600$

$P(5)=300$

Therefore, 5 watt current will produce the maximum power of 300 amperes.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 34 units. Its width is 6.5 units. What is its length?

andreyandreev [35.5K]

If the width is 6.5 then double that to work out the two widths which would be 13. Take that from the perimeter so you're left with 21. Half 21 to work out one length which is 10.5. Length = 10.5
