Mentally, they are numbers in which you can do mental math with since they are whole numbers
Answer:
Neither linear nor exponential
Step-by-step explanation:
To check for a linear relationship. Find slope.
slope= (-1 - (-2)) / ( 5 - 2) = 1/3
check other points
slope = (1 - (-1) )/ (8 - 5) = 2/3
check more
slope = (4 - 1) / (11 - 8) = 3/ 3 = 1
Nope.
try assuming an exponential:
y = c * (a^x)
-2 = c* (a^2); -2/c = a^2
-1 = c *(a ^5); -1/c = a^5
1 = c * (a^8), 1/c = a^8
(-2/c)^4 = a^8 = 1/c
16/(c^4) = 1/c
c^3 = 16, then a = root (-2/ cube-root(16) )
The change from negative to postive would not work for y = c(a^x)
so...
assume y = a^x + k
-2 = a^2 + k
-1 = a^5 + k
... I would say neither..
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Saving the long, drawn out derivation of the formulas to find the x and y coordinates of the directed point, suffice it to say that it is:
x coordinate:
and
y coordinate: 
where x1, x2, y1, and y2 are the coordinates from the given points and a and b are the numbers in the ratio, namely a = 3 and b = 4. Filling in accordingly:
the x coordinate of the directed point is
which simplifies down to -6, and
the y coordinate of the directed point is
which simplifies down to -1.
The coordinate of the point is (-6, -1). Write that down so you don't forget it.
The lengths of the rectangles are 7 and 12 respectively. Form the ratio 7/12. The widths of the rects. are x and 5 respectively. Form the ratio x/5. Now equate these two ratios:
7 x
--- = ---
12 5
Solve this for x. One way to do this would be to cross-multiply, obtaining 12x = 35, and solving this result for x. x will be a fraction. Write the numerator and denominator in the boxes given.
