If you want to estimate to the tens, the answer is 680
If you want to estimate to the hundreds, the answer is 700
If you want to estimate to the thousands then the answer would be not an answer
The real answer without estimating is 681
For example, y=x+4 and y=5x+2.
That would mean that x+4=y=5x+2.
Simplify it to x+4=5x+2.
x=5x-2
-4x=-2
x=1/2.
Now, plug x into one of the equations.
y=x+4
y=1/2+4
y=9/2.
Therefore, the POI is (1/2,9/2).
Given:
Growth rate = 30% decrease
To find:
The growth factor associated with the given growth rate.
Solution:
The general exponential function is:


Where, a is the initial value, r is the growth rate in decimal and
is the growth factor.
It is given that the growth rate is 30% decrease. So,



Now,




Therefore, the growth factor is 0.7.
F(x) = x²
g(x) = x - 3
g(-2) = (-2) - 3 = -5
f(-5) = (-5)² = 25
