No, this would not be a linear function. Being linear means it creates a straight line, but this function has an x squared. Anytime x^2 is in a function, the graph is a u shape, called a parabola. A simple linear function is y=x :D

Y=x^2 + 2 is not a linear function. This is because the x has power. If it was  only x then it would be linear function. So x^2 +2 is quadratic function. However if it was x^3, it would be quadratic; it would be cubic. Therefore fore only x squared is quadratic.

Answer:

The answer to your question is: r = 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

P = $4500

A = $9000

t = 9 years

r = rate

Formula

                            r = \sqrt[t]{\frac{A}{P}} - 1\\

Substitution

                             r = \sqrt[9]{\frac{9000}{4500} - 1\\

Simplification

                             r = \sqrt[9]{2} - 1

Result

                             r = 1.08 - 1

                             r = 0.08 ≈ 0.1

Write a real-world situation that could be modeled by the equation 24/y=3. Then solve the problem. Anyone plz help me.
Bogdan [553]
Bobby has 24 pizza slices
he divided them among his friends and each friend got 3 pieces
how many friends did he have

so
24 divided by number of friends=3
24/y=3
multiply both sides by y
24y/y=3y
24 times y/y=3y
24 times 1=3y
24=3y
divide both sides by 3
24/3=3y/3
8=3/3y
8=1y

y=8
8 friends
