Answer:
4 + 36x is your expression
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 1 = 4
4 x 9x = 36x
so 4 + 36x is your expression because you can't add numbers with different variables or if they don't even have one.
(1/3)2= 2/3 cups butter
(1/3)24= 8 oz marshmallows
(1/3)14= 4 2/3 cups rice crispy
At the end of the zeroth year, the population is 200.
At the end of the first year, the population is 200(0.96)¹
At the end of the second year, the population is 200(0.96)²
We can generalise this to become at the end of the nth year as 200(0.96)ⁿ
Now, we need to know when the population will be less than 170.
So, 170 ≤ 200(0.96)ⁿ
170/200 ≤ 0.96ⁿ
17/20 ≤ 0.96ⁿ
Let 17/20 = 0.96ⁿ, first.
log_0.96(17/2) = n
n = ln(17/20)/ln(0.96)
n will be the 4th year, as after the third year, the population reaches ≈176
Finding slope?
5. Slope is 5/3
6. Slope is 7/3
7. Slope is -3
8. Slope is 7/3
Just do rise/run
