Where x is years after 1999, the population is predicted to be ...
p(x) = 478,434*1.07^x
For x=11, this is
p(11) = 478,434*1.07^11 ≈ 1,007,033
The relation predicts the Las Vegas population in 2010 to be 1,007,033.
First we rewrite the table:
20 30
50 75
80 120
150 ?
We observe that for each 30 number of hops, the distance increases by 45 feet.
We must find the slope of the line:
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
m = (75-30) / (50-20)
m = 1.5
Then, the line is:
y = 1.5x
We substitute x = 150
y = 1.5 * (150)
y = 225
Answer:
Find the ratio of hops to distance traveled (1: 1.5), then multiply 150 by 1.5.
6x - 2 = x + 13
Subtract x
5x - 2 = 13
Add 2
5x = 15, x = 3
Solution: the number is 3
The answer if you need helo with math like this come to me -25
0 = 230 - 45x
Add 45x to both sides
45x = 230
Divide both sides by 45
x = 230 / 45
Simplify
x = 46 / 9
The solution represents the x intercept, which is where the graph intersects the x axis.
