Answer a = 5 and b = 2.
Procedure
Initially means x = 0, then
5 = a*b^0 = a*1 = a, then a = 5
When x = 1, the height is the double of 5, i.e 10 and
10 = a.b^1 = a.b ⇒ b = 10/a = 10/5 = 2
The a = 5 and b = 2, so the equation is y =5(2)^x
The answer is 42
first change the numbers from scientific notations into numbers.
1.47*10^7= 14700000
3.5*10^5= 350000
now divide the number of sweets by the number of packets. the quotient is the answer
14700000/350000= 42
good luck
At least you must give a question that goes beyond your understanding?
