Answer:
Option d. the initial amount of money placed in the savings account
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

This is a exponential function of the form

where
a is the initial value
r is the growth rate
(1+r) is the base
x is the number of years
f(x) is the amount of money in a savings account
In this problem we have
a=$3,005
r=0.03=3%
(1+r)=1.03
therefore
3,005 represent the initial value ( the amount of money for the value of x equal to zero)
Step-by-step explanation:
f=1/g
4=1/-6
=-24
find f
f=1/-6
To find the average rate of change, evaluate the function at the given points.
Evaluate the difference of the function at the given points.
Divide the difference of the function at the given points with the difference of the given points.
The answer is 0.4 or 0.40
We have the equation of the line as follows:
y = 0.5x + 79
We want to calculate the melting point (the y value) of DNA with 50% gc content (the x value).
The gc content represents the value of x in the equation, so to calculate the melting point (y), we will simply substitute the x with 50 in the equation of the line as follows:
melting point = 0.5(50) + 79 = 25 + 79 = 104 degrees
