<span>A composite number, we remember, is a whole number (no decimals or fractions) that can evenly divide (again, into no fractions or decimals) into two numbers other than itself and 1 (sort of the opposite of a prime number).
So, 8 needs to be one of the two numbers. Pick another number--any whole number--and multiply it by 8. The result will be your composite number.
Two examples: 8 times 6 equals 48. This works as 48 divided by 8 equals 6, both of which are whole numbers other than 48. Another is 72, the product of 8 times 9.</span>
Answer:
The initial value is 900
It is experiencing exponential growth by 27%
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential functions are in the form 
, where a is the initial value, b is the multiplier, and x is the input, such as how many years past a certain date.
Exponential growth is when the multiplier is above 1.00, or above 100%, because b is determined by 1 + r if you have exponential growth, or 1 - r if you have exponential decay. You will never use negatives with exponential decay.
Answer:
f(x) = 2/3 x +3
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the y intercept ( where it crosses the y axis) is 3
We can calculate the slope from 2 points (-3,1) and (0,3)
Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (3-1)/(0--3)
= (3-1)/(0+3)
= (2/3)
The slope is 2/3
Since we know the slope and the y intercept, we can use the slope intercept form
y= mx+b
y = 2/3 x+3
f(x) = 2/3 x +3
