In this question, you're finding the slope with the given points.

To find slope, you would use this equation:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the coordinates and solve:

(12 - 14) / (-6 - ( -10))

-2 / (-6 + 10)

-2 / 4

simplify:

-1/2

The slope of the line would be -1/2

Answer:

-1/2

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

$y = 2 5 0 ( 0 . 8 9 ) ^ x$

Initial value: 250

Decay

Decay rate: 11%

$y = 4 0 ( 1.11 ) ^ x$

Initial value: 40

Growth

Growth rate: 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

The function we have on the left of the table is:

$y = 2 5 0 ( 0 . 8 9 ) ^ x$

Initial value (when x = 0): $y = 2 5 0 ( 0 . 8 9 ) ^ 0$

y = 250 (initial value)

Growth or Decay: 0.89 < 1 so decay

Decay rate: (1 - 0.89) * 100 = 11%

Function on right side:

$y = 4 0 ( 1.11 ) ^ x$

Initial value (when x = 0): $y = 4 0 ( 1 . 1 1 ) ^ 0$

y = 40 (initial value)

Growth or decay: 1.11 > 1 so growth

Growth rate: (1.11 - 1) * 100 = 11%

I am thinking of a number. when it is increasd by 7, it equals 21. what is my number

andrey2020 [161]

If X is increased by 7 to make 21
X + 7 = 21
then rearrange the equation to get X
X = 21-7
X = 14(b)
