It should be the last option. With linear functions, you should be graphing a straight line.
The answer is B. If you take the even root of a positive number, you'll get two solutions, a positive and a negative
The equation seems to be
1
-------- = 5 ^ (x + 4)
25
In that case, this is the solution, stept by step:
1) factor 25: 25 = 5^2
1
=> ----------- = 5^(x + 4)
5^2
2) invert 5^2
=> 5^(-2) = 5^(x+4)
3) Given that the bases are equal, the exponents also have to be equal:
=> - 2 = x + 4
3) transpose +4:
=> - 2 - 4 = x
=> x = - 6
Answer: - 6
They are integers that follow one right after another. For example the set {1,2,3,4,5} represents consecutive numbers. Another example would be {9,10,11,12,13}
In general, if x is some integer, then x+1 is the next integer right after x, and x+2 is right after x+1 and so on. The list is {x, x+1, x+2, x+3, ...} representing any general set of consecutive numbers.
Answer:12,000
Step-by-step explanation:
.05*30,000=1,500
1,500*12=18,000
30,000-18,000=12,000
