Answer:

Option C. -0.045

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The general exponential model to find the value of the dollar at some future time compared to its present​ value is equal to

F=P(1+r)^{t}  

where  

F is the value of the dollar at some future time  

P is the present value  

r is the rate of increasing or decreasing in decimal  (remember that the equation is general)

t  is Number of Time Periods  

In this problem

The rate is decreasing

so

r=-4.5%=-4.5/100=-0.045

3x + 1y = ¹/₃   ⇒ 9x + 3y = 1
2x -  3y = 2²/₃ ⇒ 2x -  3y = 2²/₃
                                 11x = 3²/₃

                                     x = ¹/₃
                             3x + y = ¹/₃
                         3(¹/₃) + y = ¹/₃
                               1 + y = ¹/₃
                             - 1        - 1
                                     y = ⁻²/₃
                              (x, y) = (¹/₃, ⁻²/₃)

Can anyone help me understand what a basic algebraic linear equation is, I'm struggling,
polet [3.4K]
A basic algebraic linear equation is just a fancy way of saying "equation of a line". They are most likely referring to the formula y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b in the y intercept. :)

Licemer1 [7]
I think the answer is 12 because the greatest common factor of 24 and 36 is 12.

Hope this helped☺☺

(That means each goody bag will have 2 pencils and 3 erasers)
