Answer:

Jake is 9, and Jake's dad is 43.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, let's start off by putting a variable for Jack's age, A.

We know that Jack's father is 2 less than 5 times, so we can write his as 5x -2.

Now let's make an equation:

52 = x + 5x - 2

We need to isolate the x-values so we need to add 2 on both sides:

54= x + 5x

No we need to add the like terms:

54 = 6x

Finally, we just divide by 6 on each side.

Now we know X = 9 but we're not done yet :)

So because Jake's dad is almost 5 times as much, we first multiply Jack's age by 5. We get 45 but we need to subtract 2 which leaves us with 43.

Which equation represents an exponential function with an initial value of 500
WITCHER [35]
Exponential function is characterized by an exponential increase or decrease of the value from one data point to the next by some constant. When you graph an exponential function, it would start by having a very steep slope. As time goes on, the slope decreases until it levels off. The general from of this equation is: y = A×b^x, where A is the initial data point at the start of an event, like an experiment. The term 'b' is the constant of exponential change. This is raised to the power of x, which represents the independent variable, usually time.

So, the hint for you to find is the term 500 right before the term with an exponent. For example, the function would be: y = 500(1.8)^x.

Solve the equation 4s2+32s=60 by completing the square
lord [1]

Answer:

s = -4 ± √31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 4s^{2} + 32s = 60

divide by 4 throughout

s^{2}  + 8s = 15\\s^{2} + 8s + (\frac{8}{2}) ^{2}  = 15 + (\frac{8}{2}) ^{2}

 (s + 4)^{2}  = 31\\s + 4 = \sqrt{31}

s = -4 ± √31
