Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Allow me to rewrite your question and hope it will fit the original one:

<em>Jackson recorded the growth of a plant over 10 weeks. The equation </em><em>y=0.25x+4</em><em> represents the height y in inches over time x in weeks what does the y intercept represent In terms of the situation</em>

My answer:

As we know that y intercept is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis (the value of x =0)

So in this situation, if x= 0, it means the height of the tree (y-intercept) initially be at 4 at week 0.

Hope it will find you well.

3. Consider the sequence,-8, -5, -2, 1, ...
Naddik [55]

Answer:

a) a_n=3\,n-11

b) a_{20}=49

c) term number 17 is the one that gives a value of 40

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The sequence seems to be arithmetic, and with common difference d = 3.

Notice that when you add 3 units to the first term (-80, you get :

-8 + 3 = -5

and then -5 + 3 = -2 which is the third term.

Then, we can use the general form for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to find its simplified form:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)\,d

That in our case would give:

a_n=-8+(n-1)\,(3)\\a_n=-8+3\,n-3\\a_n=3n-11

b)

Therefore, the term number 20 can be calculated from it:

a_{20}=3\,(20)-11=60-11=49

c) in order to find which term renders 20, we use the general form we found in step a):

a_n=3\,n-11\\40=3\,n-11\\40+11=3\,n\\51=3\,n\\n=\frac{51}{3} =17

so term number 17 is the one that renders a value of 40

Monthly rent at Lake View Apartments has increased annually and is modeled by the exponential equation y = 2,400(1.04)x. What is
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The percent increase per year is 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=2,400(1.04^x)

This is a exponential function of the form

y=a(b^x)

where

y represent the monthly rent at Lake View Apartments

x represent the number of years

a is the initial value (y-intercept)

b is the base

r is the rate or percent increase

b=(1+r)

The percent increase per year is the base of the exponential function decreased by 1.

so

r=b-1

In this problem we have

a=\$2,400 ---> initial value

b=1.04\\r=1.04-1=0.04=4\%

Therefore

The percent increase per year is 4%
