Answer:
Choice A (older trees are generally taller than younger trees)
Step-by-step explanation:
As you increase the x value, the y value tends to increase as well. Choice B is incorrect because the points are clustered together in a linear fashion, showing correlation. Choice C is incorrect because the fact that they are clustered around a line of best fit shows high correlation. Choice D is incorrect because a negative correlation coefficient would mean the y decreases as x increases.
<em>Substitute x = 2 as we get</em>
<em>f(2) = -4(2)+4 = -8+4 = -4</em>
<em>Therefore, f(2) = -4</em>
Answer:
The function is y = 40 * 2^(x/2)
The graph is in the image attached
Step-by-step explanation:
The function that models this growth is an exponencial function, that can be described with the following equation:
y = a * b^(x/n)
Where a is the inicial value, b is the rate of growth, x is the time and n is the relation between the time and the rate (the rate occurs for every two hours, so n = 2).
Then, using a = 40, r = 2 and n = 2, we have:
y = 40 * 2^(x/2)
If we plot this function, we have the graph shown in the image attached,
It is an exponencial graph, where the value of y increases very fast in relation to the increase of x.

To solve x:
1. Substract 19 in both sides of the equation:

2. Multiply both sides of the ewuation by 10/9:

<h2>Then, the value of x is 60 (x=60)</h2>
Answer:
polynomials are written in descending order.
