We have

Multiplying through by 1100,


Squaring (which means we need to check later),





Clearly there's no way that giant number would work; must be extraneous.
Answer: 3.94
Merry Christmas!
Answer:
-22.5
Explanation:
Use the average rate of change equation
f(b)-f(a) / b-a
f(b) = f(0) = 3(.25)^0 = 3
f(a) = f(-2) = 3(.25)^-2 = 48
(3-48)/ 0-(-2)
(-45) / 2
-22.5
The function is defined only if
. So, the leftmost point is
, and we have

So, the first point is 
The three additional points seem arbitrary, so let's choose
. We have:

So, the second point is 

So, the third point is 

So, the fourth point is 
If you're describing a time, then it has to have a unit of time. We have no idea how much gas you're talking about, so second, minute, and hour are all possibilities.
Answer:
The final price is $ 22.68 And Proportional constant is 1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The Original price = $ 16.20
The rate of increase = 40%
Let The final price = x
Now,
Final price after increase = initial price × ( 1 + 
Or. Final price after increase = $ 16.20 × ( 1 + 
Or, Final price after increase = $ 16.20 × ( 1.4 )
∴ Final price after increase = $ 22.68
Now , Proportional constant = 
I.e Proportional constant = 1.4
Hence The final price is $ 22.68 And Proportional constant is 1.4 Answer
