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%.

What is the solution to this system:<br> 4x+9y=28<br> - 4x-y=-28
Degger [83]

Answer:

x = 7

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

→To solve this, you can use the elimination method. To do this, you must have one set of variables that can cancel each other out. In the problem given, we already have positive 4x and -4x, making them cancel out:

4x + 9y = 28

-4x - y = -28

__________

8y = 0

y = 0

<u>→Plug in 0 for y, into an equation:</u>

-4x - 0 = -28

-4x = -28

x = 7

The answer is B) 4
the two angles adjacent to the exterior angle equal each other so the equation would be 14x+58=27x+6 subtract the 14x from the 27x
58=13x+6 subtract the 6 from 58
52=13x divide 52/13 leaving you with x=4

11.) Write the equation of the line that
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

y-2=2/3(x+1) OR y=2/3x+8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2/3x-2 (2/3 represents your slope)

plug into this equation y-y1=m(x-x1) (m represents your slope, y1 and x1 are you points)

so y-2=2/3(x+1) OR y=2/3x+8/3 (move the -2 over, distribute the 2/3 to (x+1) and then add 2/3 to the 2 you moved over)
