If you do the proportion, you have to put 1/5 = 20/100. The 20 represents the percentage. Then you have to say to yourself that how many time 5 goes to 100, well its x20 then if we multiply 1 x 20 we'll get 20. So, he is correct, 1/5 = 20%. Remember what number we think of when we hear the word percent, the number is 100.
Im not that good with these types of problems but i think it is b if my math is correct.
We can write the function in terms of y rather than h(x)
so that:
y = 3 (5)^x
A. The rate of change is simply calculated as:
r = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1) where r stands for rate
Section A:
rA = [3 (5)^1 – 3 (5)^0] / (1 – 0)
rA = 12
Section B:
rB = [3 (5)^3 – 3 (5)^2] / (3 – 2)
rB = 300
B. We take the ratio of rB / rA:
rB/rA = 300 / 12
rB/rA = 25
So we see that the rate of change of section B is 25
times greater than A
Answer: The area of the triangle would be 256.
Explanation: You need to multiply both 16 and 16 together, which will then get your answer which is 256.☺️
