Explain how solving 8+2 can help you solve 80+20.

katrin [286]

Becuase 80 is the same as 8 but has an extra 0 at the end (which makes it 80) and same for 20 to 2. 8 + 2 = 10 (now add a zero at the end). The answer should be 100.

Select the correct answer.

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The correct option is (B) $58.41$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential decay function is as follows:

$y=a(1-r)^{t}$

Here,

<em>y = </em>final value

<em>a</em> = initial value

<em>r</em> = decay rate

<em>t</em> = time taken

It is provided that:

<em>a = </em>150 mg

<em>r</em> = 9% = 0.09

Then the next hour the amount of caffeine in the body will be:

$y=a(1-r)^{t}\\=150\times (1-0.09)^{1}\\=136.5\ \text{mg}$

Then after two hours the amount of caffeine in the body will be:

$y=a(1-r)^{t}\\=150\times (1-0.09)^{2}\\=124.215\ \text{mg}$

Similarly after 10 hours the amount of caffeine in the body will be:

$y=a(1-r)^{t}\\=150\times (1-0.09)^{10}\\=58.4124\ \text{mg}\\\approx 58.41\ \text{mg}$

Then the inequality representing the range of the exponential function that models this situation is:

$58.41$

Thus, the correct option is (B).

Find the point slope equation the line that passes through the points (-3, 2) and (2, 12). use the first point in your equation

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

y-2=2(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(12-2)/(2-(-3))

m=10/(2+3)

m=10/5

m=2

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2=2(x-(-3))

y-2=2(x+3)

Which function has a greater rate of change?

LiRa [457]

Given:

Graph of function 1.

The equation of function 2 is $y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+7$ .

To find:

The function which has a greater rate of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph it is clear that, the function 1 passes through two points (0,0) and (1,2). So, slope of function is

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\dfrac{2-0}{1-0}$

$m=\dfrac{2}{1}$

$m=2$

So, rate of change of function 1 is 2.

On comparing the equation $y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+7$ with $y=mx+b$ , where m is slope and b is y-intercept, we get

$m=\dfrac{1}{2}$

So, rate of change of function 2 is $\dfrac{1}{2}$ .

Since, $2>\dfrac{1}{2}$ , therefore, function 1 has a greater rate of change.
