25 sales. you start with 50 and get $2 per sale in that week. if you make 25 sales, 25*2= 50. then do 50+50=$100
Question:
A population of insects, in thousands, can be modeled using the function
, where t is time in months. Which statement best
describes the population of insects?
A. The population is decaying at a rate of 3% each month.
B. The population is decaying at a rate of 25% each month.
C. The population is growing at a rate of 75% each month.
D. The population is growing at a rate of 97% each month.
Answer:
A. The population is decaying at a rate of 3% each month.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Required
True statement about the function
From the options, we can see that we are to answer the question on the basis of decay and growing rates.
An exponential form is:

Compare to 

If
, then
r represents growth rate
else,
r represents decay rate
Since b < 0.97:





Answer:
6.34 × 10²
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculating scientific notation for a positive integer is simple, as it always follows this notation: a x 10b.
Step 1
To find a, take the number and move a decimal place to the right one position.
Original Number: 634
New Number: 6.34
Step 2
Now, to find b, count how many places to the right of the decimal.
New Number: 6 . 3 4
Decimal Count: 1 2
There are 2 places to the right of the decimal place.
Step 3
Building upon what we know above, we can now reconstruct the number into scientific notation.
Remember, the notation is: a x 10b
a = 6.34
b = 2
Now the whole thing:
6.34 x 10²
Step 4
Check your work:
10² = 100 x 6.34 = 634
The slope m of a line
through points

and

is given by :<span>

Thus, the slope of the line passing through points </span><span>(−1, 7) and (2, 10) is
</span>

<span>
The equation of a line with slope m passing through a point P(a, b) is given by
(y-b)=m(x-a).
We can consider any of the points (-1, 7), or (2, 10). Let's choose (2, 10):
y-10=1(x-2)
y-10=x-2
y-x=-2+10
y-x=8
