The number increases by 5% each year
After 1 year it is
After 2 years
Similarly, after 4 years
Answer:
y = -2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
pt slope formula is
y-y₁=m(x-x₁)
First put values in
y--5=m(x-2) (you could used either point, I chose the first one out of the two)
Then find the slope
-1+5/0-2
4/-2
-2
y+5=-2(x-2)
solve
y+5=-2x+4
y=-2x-1
the y-intercept is where it crosses the y-axis so you are only looking at where it crosses
The first expression could be written as 3x + 12 and the second could be written as 2x + 6.
In order to find these, count the number of x's you see in each question. Then use that number as the coefficient to x in your statement. The first problem has 3 and the second has 2.
Then add the numbers of 1's together to get the constants at the end of the expressions. The first has 12 and the second has 6.
