Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use 2 coordinates from the table along with the standard form for an exponential function to write the equation that models that data. The standard form for an exponential function is
where x and y are coordinates from the table, a is the initial value, and b is the growth/decay rate. I will use the first 2 coordinates from the table: (0, 3) and (1, 1.5)
Solving first for a:
. Sine anything in the world raised to a power of 0 is 1, we can determine that
a = 3. Using that value along with the x and y from the second coordinate I chose, I can then solve for b:
. Since b to the first is just b:
1.5 = 3b so
b = .5
Filling in our model:
Since the value for b is greater than 0 but less than 1 (in other words a fraction smaller than 1), this table represents a decay function.

Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Sum the parts of the ratio , 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 parts
Divide sum of angles in a triangle by 6 to find the value of one part of the ratio.
180° ÷ 6 = 30° ← value of 1 part of the ratio
2 parts = 2 × 30° = 60°
3 parts = 3 × 30° = 90°
Since there is an angle of 90° then the triangle is right.
(b)
The shortest side is the side opposite the smallest angle of 30°
Using the sine ratio and the exact value
sin30° = , then
sin30° = =
=
( cross- multiply )
2 opp = 19 ( divide both sides by 2 )
opp = 9,5
Shortest side in the triangle is 9.5 cm
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given polynomial equation is
We perform the synthetic division as shown in the attachment by dividing by x-2.
This gives a remainder of 0 and a quotient of
This means the polynomial equation becomes:
We factor the quadratic term by splitting the middle term;
Collect common factors again:
The solution is:
