Two math students were asked to write an exeponential growth equations that had a starting value of 300 and a growth rate of 2%.

Pierre thinks the answer is y=300(1.02)^x and Scott thinks that the answer is y=300(1.2)^x. Are either of them right and why?

Answer:

Pierre is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

A growth rate of 2% means that the values is increasing by 0.02 each year so the multiplying factor is 1.02.

Pierre is correct y = 300(1.02)^x.

Scotts  answer 1.2 = a growth rate of 20%.

The area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh  where b is the length of the base and h is the height

b = LK = 4 units

h = J to where LK would be extended to, which would be 4 units

A = 1/2 (4) * 4

Find the HCF of<br> x^4 y^2 and x^3 y^3
forsale [732]

Here's your answer down here↓:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 - y^3 = (x - y)(x^2 + xy + y^2)

(x^4 - y^4) = (x^2 - y^2)(x^2 + y^2) = (x - y)(x + y)(x^2 + y^2)

Ok. So the factor (x-y) appears once in the top line and once in the second line. So we are going to take it the least amount of times.

So, the factor (x + y) appears in the top line zero times and in the second line one time so we will take it where it appears the least which is zero times so we are still at (x - y)

And it Same goes for the factors of (x^2 + y^2) and (x^2 + xy + y^2)
