Answer:

The ratio of yellow balloons to blue balloons is 8:12

Then there are 100 balloons. Making the equation, we are able to have:

8X + 12X = 1000

20x = 1000

X = 50.

Yellow balloons = 8x = 8 * 50 = 400 yellow balloons

Blue balloons = 12X = 12 * 50 = 600 blue balloons

So there are  400 yellows balloons.

* Hopefully this helps:) Mark me the brainliest:)!!

If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio.

Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication.

Finally, solve for x and if you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.

Identify whether the equation represents an exponential growth or exponential decay function.1. y = 1/4 (1/e)^-2x2. y = (1/e)^4x
zvonat [6]

The general formula for exponential growth and decays is:

y=y_0e^{kx}

if k>0 then then it is an exponential growth function. If k<0 then the function represents an exponential decay.

Now we need to classify each of the functions:

1.

The function

y=\frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{e})^{-2x}

can be wrtten as:

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{1}{4}(e^{-1})^{-2x}^{} \\ =\frac{1}{4}e^{2x} \end{gathered}

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=2, therefore this is an exponential growth.

2.

The function

y=(\frac{1}{e})^{4x}

can be written as:

\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{e})^{4x} \\ y=(e^{-1})^{4x} \\ y=e^{-4x} \end{gathered}

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-4, therefore this is an exponential decay.

3.

The function

y=2e^{-x}+1

comparing with the general formula we notice that k=-1, therefore this is an exponential decay.
