Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation is the weights of the rabbit and the ferret together which is

r + f = 7.

The second equation puts the weight of the ferret in terms of the rabbit. If the ferret's weight is 2 pounds more than the rabbit, then

f = r + 2 (the word "is" means equals). Since we know what f is equal to, we will sub it into the first equation and solve for r:

r + (r + 2) = 7 and

2r + 2 = 7 and

2r = 5 so

r = 2.5 pounds.

A rabbit weights 2.5 pounds and the ferret weights 7 - 2.5 which is 4.5 pounds.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

1) False:  The function is decreasing (because the base, 1/3, is between 0 and 1).

2) True:  The function is decreasing (see #1, above)

3) False:  There is no x-intercept.

4) True:  If x is 0, then y = (1/3)^0 = 1.

5) False:  the range consists of the set of all real numbers greater than zero.

8^x+3=16^x−1<br> solve the exponential equation ...?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Let us write down the equation clearly and in a proper manner. This will help in solving the equation very easily.

8^(x + 3) = 16^(x - 1)
(2^3)^(x + 3) = (2^4)^(x - 1)
(2)^3(x + 3) = (2)^4(x - 1)
Then
3(x + 3) = 4(x - 1)
3x + 9 = 4x - 4
4x - 3x = 9 + 4
x = 13

I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. I also hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your desired help.
