The answer is:A = 231e^(.0010776*12) = 234 million in 2003
k=(In(233/231))/(8)
<span>k=1.00865/8 <===== you used the ratio of 233/321, not the natural log of the ratio. </span>
<span>233/231 = 1.00865 </span>
<span>ln(233/231) = ln(1.00865) = 0.0086207 </span>
<span>k = 0.0086207/8 = 0.0010776 </span>
Answer:
Monica is not correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, if 4 bottles only cost $4, then how would only 2 cost more? (She said the two bottles would be $25, which doesn’t make sense.)
• The following formula can be used to find the slope of a line:

These points are on the line:

Given the following points:

Then, you can set up that:

Therefore, substituting values into the formula and evaluating, you get:

• As you can notice, the slope is negative. Therefore, you can determine that it is decreasing.
Therefore, the answers are:
• Slope of the line:

• It is decreasing.
Answer:

The center is:
(2, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following equation

The general equation of a circle has the following form

Where r is the radius and the point (h, k) is the center of the circle
To transform the given equation in the general equation of a circumference we must use the method of square completions
Step 1

<u>Step 2</u>
<u> </u>Add and subtract
For an equation of the form


<u>Step 3 </u> Factor the expressions within the parentheses

<u>Step 4 Simplify</u>


Finally

The center is:
(2, -4)
