$18 - ( \dfrac{3}{27}) ^3
$

$= 18 - ( \dfrac{1}{9}) ^3
$

$= 18 - \dfrac{1}{729}$

$= 17\dfrac{728}{729}$

Write the standard form of the quadratic equation modeled by the points shown in the table below. x -1 0 1 2 3 y -20 -6 2 4 0

disa [49]

We know that
The Standard Form of a Quadratic Equation looks like this
 ax² + bx + c = 0

we have
x -1 0 1 2 3
y -20 -6 2 4 0

for x=0 y=-6
then
 y=ax² + bx + c --------> -6=a*0² + b*0 + c ---------> c=-6

for y=0 x=3
then
y=ax² + bx + c-------> 0=a*3² + b*3 -6---------> 9a+3b=6----> equation 1

for x=2 y=4

then

y=ax² + bx + c-----> 4=a*2² + b*2 -6-----> 4=4a+2b-6-----> 4a+2b=10----> a=2.5-0.5b----> equation 2

I substitute 2 in 1

9*[2.5-0.5b]+3b=6------> 22.5-4.5b+3b=6------> 1.5b=16.5------> b=11

a=2.5-0.5*11------> a=2.5-5.5------> a=-3

The Standard Form of a Quadratic Equation is

ax² + bx + c = 0--------> -3x²+11x-6=0

the answer is

-3x²+11x-6=0

Growth Models 19515. In 1968, the U.S. minimum wage was $1.60 per hour. In 1976, the minimum wagewas $2.30 per hour. Assume the

VikaD [51]

In general, the exponential growth function is given by the formula below

$f(x)=a(1+r)^x$

Where a and r are constants, and x is the number of time intervals.

In our case, n=0 for 1960; therefore, 1968 is n=8,

$\begin{gathered} f(8)=a(1+r)^8 \\ \text{and} \\ f(8)=1.6 \\ \Rightarrow1.6=a(1+r)^8 \end{gathered}$

And 1976 is n=16

$\begin{gathered} f(16)=a(1+r)^{16} \\ \text{and} \\ f(16)=2.3 \\ \Rightarrow2.3=a(1+r)^{16} \end{gathered}$

Solve the two equations simultaneously, as shown below

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1.6}{(1+r)^8}=a \\ \Rightarrow2.3=\frac{1.6}{(1+r)^8}(1+r)^{16} \\ \Rightarrow2.3=1.6(1+r)^8 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{2.3}{1.6}=(1+r)^8 \\ \Rightarrow(\frac{2.3}{1.6})^{\frac{1}{8}}=(1+r)^{}^{} \\ \Rightarrow r=(\frac{2.3}{1.6})^{\frac{1}{8}}-1 \\ \Rightarrow r=0.0464078 \end{gathered}$

Solving for a,
