Answer:
B and C work. A and D do not.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is one of those questions that you have to go through each answer to see what the results are. You don't have to go far to eliminate A and D so let's do that first.
A]
5n + 6
Let n = 1
5(1) + 6
5 + 6= 11
However there is trouble beginning with n = 2
5*2 + 6
10 + 6
16 All you need is one wrong answer and the choice is toast. So A won't work.
================
Try D
6(n - 1)+ 5
n=0
6*(-1) + 5
-6 + 5
- 1
And D has been eliminated with just 1 attempt. n= 2 or n = 1 would be even worse. D is not one of the answers.
=============
B
Let n = 1
6(1) + 5
6 + 5
11 The first term works.
n = 2
6*(2) + 5
12 + 5
17 and n = 2 works as well. Just in case it is hard to believe, let's try n = 3 because so far, everything is fine.
n = 3
6*(3) + 5
18 + 5
23 And this also works. I'll let you deal with n = 4
========
C
n = 0
6(0 + 1) + 5
6*1 + 5
6 + 5
11
n = 1
6(1 + 1) + 5
6*2 + 5
12 + 5
17 which works.
So C is an answer.
Answer:
1.(1,5) and (2,6) , 6-5/2-1=1/1 m=1 ,y=1x+b
5=1(1)+b 4=b
y=x+4
2.(1,1) and (3,-8) -8-1/3-1=-9/2 m=-9/2 ,y=-9/2x+b
1=-9/2(1)+b b=11/2
y=-9/x+11/2
3.(2.-3) and (5,-2) m=1/3 ,y=1/3x+b
-3=1/3(2)+b -3=2/3+b
-3-2/3=b
b=-11/3
y=1/3x-11/3
4.(2,5)and (4,3) m=-1 y=-1x+b
5=-1(2)+b 5=-2+b
5+2=b
b=7
y=-1x+7
6.(-3,-5) and (-1,-3) m=2/2=1 y=1x+b
-5=1(-3)+b -5=-3+b
-5+3=b
-2=b
y=1x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking 2x is power of 3.
So it will be like 3^(2*1/2) + 1
You are replacing 'x' with 1/2
and the equation becomes 3^1+1
So, f(1/2) = 4
Answer is 4.
If its like
<span>3^(2x+1)
Then its like 3^[(2*1/2) +1]
It becomes 3^(1+1) = 3^2 = 9
So, the answer is 9

Answer:
5. f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
We would have to multiply the original amount by 1.50^x because the initial amount would be 1, and 50% increase would be .5 so 1.5 and you raise it to the number of years to show the total increase.
Let's test it.
Initial:
10,000
After 1 year
10,000 + (.5*10000)
10,000 + 5000 = 15,000
After 2 years
15,000 + (.5*15000)
15,000 + 7500 = 22,500
Let's try our equation.
f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
x = 2
10,000(1.5)^2
10,000(2.25) = 22,500
The same!
