Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - given point

$\bullet\ (2,\ 7),\ m=-4\\\\y-7=-4(x-2)\\\\\bullet(-6,\ -2),\ m=3\\\\y-(-2)=3(x-(-6))\to y+2=3(x+6)\\\\\bullet(12,\ 5),\ m=-3\\\\y-5=-3(x-12)\\\\\bullet(7,\ -6),\ m=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\y-(-6)=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-7)\to y+6=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-7)\\\\\bullet(4,\ -5),\ m=6\\\\y-(-5)=6(x-4)\to y=y+5=6(x-4)\\\\\bullet(-8,\ 2),\ m=-\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\y-2=-\dfrac{3}{4}(x-(-8))\to y-2=-\dfrac{3}{4}(x+8)$

In a small town, electricity prices have been rising 2% each year since 2008. Which

mihalych1998 [28]

<h3>Answer: p = 0.12*(1.02)^t</h3>

Explanation:

The general exponential growth equation is

p = A*B^t

where t is the number of years that have gone by after 2008, A is the starting amount, B is the growth multiplier, and p is the price t years after 2008

We know that A = 0.12 is the starting price

The value of B is B = 1.02 which is in the form 1+r since 1.02 = 1 + 0.02 = 1+r

The r value is r = 0.02 and it is positive to represent growth. Keep in mind that 2% = 2/100 = 0.02

So we go from

p = A*B^t

to

p = 0.12*(1.02)^t

Express x in terms of a and b: b−7x=a−b

pav-90 [236]

B - 7x = a - b
Subtract b from both sides.

-7x = a - 2b
Divide both sides by -7.

x = $\frac{-a + 2b}{7}$
