Answer:

The number of counties in state A are 70.

The number of counties in state B are 68.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of counties in state A and the number of counties in state B are consecutive even integers whose sum is 138.

Let the two consecutive even integers be x and x+2.

As their sum is 138, we can denote this mathematically as :

x+x+2=138

=> 2x+2=138

=> 2x=138-2

=> 2x=136

Now, we get x = 68

And x+2=68+2 = 70

Hence, the two numbers are 68 and 70.

So, the number of counties in state A are 70.

The number of counties in state B are 68.

Does each equation represent exponential decay or exponential growth?
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

1. H = 5.9(0.82)^{t}. Exponential decay function.

2. y = 0.8(3.6)^{t}. Exponential growth function.

3. f(t) = 0.72(15)^{t}. Exponential growth function.

4. A = \frac{4}{9} (8)^{t}. Exponential growth function.

5. A = (\frac{4}{3})^{t}. Exponential growth function.

6.  H = \frac{7}{2} (\frac{5}{6} )^{t}. Exponential decay function.

7. g(x) = 0.3(x). Not an exponential function.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. H = 5.9(0.82)^{t}. This is an exponential decay function.

As the value of t increases H-value decreases.

2. y = 0.8(3.6)^{t}. This is an exponential function of growth.

As the value of t increases y-value also increases.

3. f(t) = 0.72(15)^{t}. This is an another example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases f(t)-value also increases.

4. A = \frac{4}{9} (8)^{t}. This is again an example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases A-value also increases.

5. A = (\frac{4}{3})^{t}. This is again an example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases A-value also increases.

6. H = \frac{7}{2} (\frac{5}{6} )^{t}. This is another an example of exponential decay function.

As the value of t increases, H-value decreases.

7. g(x) = 0.3(x). This is a non-exponential function. (Answer)

Makayla is working two summer jobs, making $19 per hour tutoring and making $12 per hour landscaping. In a given week, she can w
Ivanshal [37]

Answer: 12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

3 hours landscaping = $36

She still needs to make $224 to meet her requirement.

$224 divided by $19 tutoring = 11.79 hours

224÷19=11.79

Rounded to the nearest whole number: 12

This would mean Makayla worked a total of 15 hours and made $264. Which meets her requirements.
