Answer:

y=mx+c

We have to find the value of m and c.

Let's substitute the value of x and y from the table.

When x=1, y=15,

15= m(1)+c

m +c= 15 ------(1)

Now substitute another set of x and y values.

When x=2, y=24,

24= m(2)+c

2m +c= 24

c= 24 -2m ------(2)

Let me rewrite the two equations so that it is clearer for you to see.

m + c= 15 -----(1)

c = 24 -2m -----(2)

subst. (2) into (1):

m+ 24-2m= 15

-m= 15-24 (bring constants to 1 side, m terms to the other)

-m= -9 (simplify)

m= 9 ( divide by -1 throughout)

subst. m=9 into (2):

c= 24 -2(9)

c= 24-18

c= 6

Thus, the equation is y=9x+6.

When the cat is 3 years old, x=3.

When x=3,

y= 9(3)+6

y= 33.

Hence, the cat is 33 years old in human years.

F(x)=x^2 reflected over x=2
klasskru [66]

Answer:

please rate

Step-by-step explanation:

To reflect a graph, f(x) over the x-axis, you take -f(x). So if f(x)=x^2, then -f(x) is -x^2. Then g(x)=-x^2 is the reflection of your function f(x) over the x-axis.

jonny [76]

Answer:

The growth rate for the period was of 17.86%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the growth rate as a percent, we multiply the change by 100, and divide by the initial value.

A house cost $112,000 in 2010. By the year 2015, the house had a value of $132,000.

Change: 132 - 112 = 20

Initial value: 112

Growth rate as a percent:

20*100/112 = 17.86%

The growth rate for the period was of 17.86%.
