The slope intercept form is y=mx+b. m is the slope, b is the y intercept,
Answer:
a) r₁₂ = 104.36
In general, rₙ = arⁿ⁻¹
b)
- rabbit food consumed during the 10th year is approximately 832 pounds
- rabbit food consumed in total for the 1st through 10th years is approximately 5265 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
r1 = 30 and a farm grows by 12%
a = 30 and the common ratio r = 1.12
now
n r
1 30.00
2 33.60
3 37.63
4 42.15
5 47.21
6 52.87
7 59.21
8 66.32
9 74.28
10 83.19
11 93.18
12 104.36
Therefore r₁₂ = 104.36
In general, rₙ = arⁿ⁻¹
b)
if each rabbit consume 10 lbs of rabbit food each year
n r food consumed(lbs)
1 30.00 300
2 33.60 336
3 37.63 376
4 42.15 422
5 47.21 472
6 52.87 529
7 59.21 592
8 66.32 663
9 74.28 743
10 83.19 832
total 5265
Therefore, the rabbit food consumed during the 10th year is approximately 832 pounds
And the rabbit food consumed in total for the 1st through 10th years is approximately 5265 pounds
You forgot to post the function
A y-intercept always has to have an x-value of 0 so the answer is D (the last option)
