Answer:

50 is the initial value

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is of the form

y = ab^x where a is the initial value and b is the growth/decay value

b>1 is growth and b<1 means decay

y = 50(1.6)^x

50 is the initial value and 1.6 means growth since it is greater than 1

1.6 -1 = .6 so it has a 60% growth rate

Reduce the following fraction: -32abc/64a^2bc^2

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

$-\dfrac{1}{2ac}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\dfrac{-32abc}{64a^2bc^2}$

Reduce this fraction.

Work with numbers and different letters separately:

1. Numbers:

$\dfrac{-32}{64}=-\dfrac{32}{32\cdot 2}=-\dfrac{1}{2}$

2. Letter a:

$\dfrac{a}{a^2}=\dfrac{a}{a\cdot a}=\dfrac{1}{a}$

3. Letter b:

$\dfrac{b}b}=1$

4. Letter c:

$\dfrac{c}{c^2}=\dfrac{c}{c\cdot c}=\dfrac{1}{c}$

Hence,

$\dfrac{-32abc}{64a^2bc^2}=-\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{1}{a}\cdot \dfrac{1}{c}=-\dfrac{1}{2ac}$

Answer:

y = 5/2x

y = 35/2

Step-by-step explanation:

direct variation

y = kx

Substitute the values for x and y

15 = k(6)

Divide each side by 6 yo find k

15/6 = k

5/2 = k

The equation is y = 5/2 x

Now we know x =7

y = 5/2(7)

y = 35/2
