Answer:
C.-1.6
Step-by-step explanation:
distance: -1 - (-2) = 1
1 ÷ 5 = 1/5
-1 - 1/5 × 3 = -1 3/5 = -1.6

Answer:
19. B -- continued, but modest ...
Step-by-step explanation:
19. There is no decline or decrease indicated on this graph. If growth were exponential, the graph would be concave upward, which it is not. There is continued growth indicated.
__
20. The percentage change from 2005 to 2010 is ...
(60 -20)/20 × 100% = 2 × 100% = 200%
One might compute an average rate of change per year of ...
200%/(5 yr) = 40%/yr
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
As with any statement of percentage, you need to be very clear about what the base is.
Here, 100% is the number of farms in 2005, so an increase of 40% per year is an increase by 40% of the number in 2005. That is very different from 40% of the number in the previous year, which is how an annual percentage increase is usually interpreted. (The average annual rate of change is closer to 24% with respect to the previous year's number.)
Answer:
A terminating decimal, terminates, or stops. For example: 1.5. A repeating decimal keeps repeating itself. For example: .999999999999 (and so on). Hope I helped!
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes. Changing the the word problem into a function, you get 30x=y.
30 = Fixed Length
x = width
y = area
No matter what width (x) you choose, the area (y) is going to be a multiple of 30 (the fixed length) because with two numbers being multiplied, if there is a fixed number that will always be the multiple and not the multiplier. For example, 10 multiplied by every number 1-10 is going to be a multiple of 10.
10x1=10, 10x2=20, 10x3=30, etc
So if Tom chooses any of these widths (x) 5, 10, or 15, y (the area) will be a multiple of 30.
30(5)=150
30(10)=300
30(15)=450
So as we double 5 to get 10, our outcome is doubled 150 to 300 and so forth. Hope this helps.
First subtract y from both sides to isolate the variable.
25 = 2y-2
Next, add 2 to both sides.
27 = 2y
Last, divide by 2.
13.5 = y
