Answer:
b > -16
Step-by-step explanation:
The inequality is given as:
b - 1 > -17
To solve this problem, add +1 to both sides of the expression:
b - 1 + 1 > -17 + 1
Now;
b > -16
So, all values for which b is more than -16 satisfy the solution for this problem.
Answer:
Y = 3x^x is a graph that has exponential growth while y = 3^-x has exponential decay.
Y = 3x^x (-∞, 0) and (∞, ∞).
Y = 3x^-x (-∞, ∞) and (∞, 0).
Step-by-step explanation:
The infinity symbols were being used to represent the x and y values of each graph. I will call y = 3^x "graph 1" and y = 3^-x "graph 2".
When graph 1 had positive ∞ for its x value, its y value was reaching towards positive ∞. When its x was reaching for negative ∞, its y was going for 0.
For graph 2, however, when its x was reaching for positive ∞, its x was reaching for 0. When its x was reaching for negative ∞, its y was going for positive ∞.
Here's an image of the graphs:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Here, the first term is .48 and the common ratio is 1/100 (since each new 48 is 1/100 th of the previous 48). a
Use the formula s = sum of geometric series = -----------
1 - r
0.48 48
which in this case is s = --------------- = ------------ = 48/99 = 16/33
1 - 1/100 100 - 1
Check this result by finding 16/33 on a calculator. Is the result equal to 0.484848484848.... ? Yes
b) Here we have the bar over the 8 only. 0.48 with the bar over the 8 is equivalent to 0.4888888888 ...
0.08
or 0.4 + 0.0888888888 ... or 0.4 + ------------
1 - 1/10
0.08 8
and this simplifies to 0.4 + ------------ = 0.4 + ---------
9/10 90
Evaluating this last result on a calculator results in 0.488888888 ...
c) 0.48 expressed as a fraction is 48/100 = 12/25
To simplify fractions, all you have to do is divide both the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of both integers.
In this case, the greatest common factor of 2 and 10 is 2.
2/2=1
10/2=5
So, 2/10 in its simplest form is 1/5.
