If you are asking for the slope it is a zero slope because...
2-2 equals 0 and you don't need to solve the bottom because the top is a zero
but a horizontal slope is when the zero is on the bottom.
btw- I guarantee I am right because i am a Indian. My wisdom comes from God. Jesus Christ!!!!:):):)
-4.5x-2y=-12.5 and 3.25x-y=-0.75
we first multiply the second equation by -2
(-2)*(3.25x-y=-0.75)=-6.5x+2y=-1.5
add the equation to eliminate the y
so yo get (-4.5x-6.5x)=(-12.5-1.5)
-11x=-11
x=1
now we plug in x into any equation to solve for y
-45x-2y=-12.5 and x=1
(-45*1)-2y=-12.5
-4.5-2y=-12.5
-2y=-12.5+4.5
-2y=-8
y=4
then your answer is x=1 and y=4
Answer:
A) The 75 is the initial number of cells, and the 2 indicates that the number of cells doubles every minute
Step-by-step explanation:
When x=0 (no minutes have elapsed), the value of the function is ...
f(0) = 75(2^0) = 75(1) = 75 . . . . the initial number of cells
As x increases by 1 (minute), the number of cells is multiplied by 2, so the 2 is the multiplier each minute. It indicates the number doubles. ("double" = "multiply by 2")
x is not defined, but for the function to make any sense, it must represent elapsed minutes.
