Multiply each term by a^2b^2:-
b^2y^2 + a^2x^2 = a^2b^2
subtract a^2x^2 from both sides
b^2y^2 = a^2b^2 - a^2x^2
Now divide both sides by b^2
y^2 = a^2 - a^2x^2 / b^2 = a^2 (1 - x^2/b^2)
take positive square root ( because y > 0)
y = a sqrt(1 - x^2/b^2)
The way to solve this question is to essentially reverse the equation I used in the other answer.
I would solve this with some theoretical values. If you start with 3, how long would it take for it to triple, or reach 9.
the equation would look like 9 = 3(2)^t/6, note how the instead of 1/2 it is now 2 in the parenthesis, as it doubles every 6 hours rather than halves every amount of hours.
When placed into an algebra calculator, the answer should be about 9.5 hours
C
Let x be the cost of banana
Michael: 4x=2.72
Divide by 4 : x =.68
Tonya: 6x= 4.08
x = .68 divide by 6
