Sonia saves a lot of water. To figure this out, you plug the number 8 into the equation, replacing it with the variable x. y = 3(8). Therefore, y=24. To find out how much water she saves, you have to also figure out how much water she was using for 8 minutes with the other shower head, the one that wastes the water. Since it dispenses 12 gallons per minute, you multiply that by 8 minutes and get 96. Subtract 24 from 96 and get 72. Which I think is your answer. Then again, I'm in high school so I most likely am wrong.
Answer:
1. The growth rate is 2
2. The sample is losing half its mass, so the decay factor is 1/2 or 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The growth and decay factor in an exponential function is the number that is being multiplied to the power of x
- It is a growth rate when that number is greater than 1
- It is a decay rate when the number is less than 1
- If it's 1 then it's not growing or decaying
- If it's 0 you will have an answer of 0
Answer:
2x^(10)y^(12)

Answer:
The number is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the word problem as an equation.
The sum of (we will be adding.), half of a number (we can use x, this will be written as x/2.) and double the number (this will be written as 2x) is 20.
To find the number, solve the equation.
x/2 + 2x = 20
Multiply both sides by 2.
x + 4x = 40
Combine terms.
5x = 40
Divide both sides.
x = 8.
