A larger interval is wider than a smaller interval.
Answer:
y=-3/2x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the slope by taking two points on the graph, and making the one that occurs earlier in the graph (from left to right) the first point (x1, y1) and the one that occurs later in the graph the second point (x2, y2). The equation is m (or slope)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). I took the first two points in the table for this. m=(12-18)/-4-(-8)
the double negative on the bottom becomes an addition=> (12-18)/(-4+8)
the top simplifies to be -6 and the bottom simplifies to 4=>-6/4
this fraction can be reduced to -3/2, which is the slope of the graph.
Now, use point slope form (y-y1=m(x-x1)) to find the equation of the graph. Plug any coordinate on the graph in for x1 and y1 here. It should be correct as long as it is a point on the graph, but I am using the point (-8, 18) here.
=>y-18=-3/2(x-(-8))
the double negative in the parentheses becomes a positive=> y-18=-3/2(x+8)
distribute the -3/2 to every term in the parentheses=> y-18=-3/2x-12
add 18 to both sides, cancelling out the -18 on the left side of the equation=>y=-3/2x+6 (-12+18=6 to get 6 for b).
Therefore, the equation is y=-3/2x+6

Answer:
698 fishes
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally, we can represent an exponential growth function as;
y = a•(1 + r)^t
originally, there were 3 fishes
The original value in this case means a = 3
After 6 weeks, there were 31
31 in this case is y
r is the increase percentage or rate
t is the time
So, we have it that;
31 = 3•(1 + r)^6
31/3 = (1 + r)^6
10.33 = (1 + r)^6
ln 10.33 = 6 ln (1 + r)
ln 10.33/6 = ln (1 + r)
e^0.3892 = (1 + r)
1 + r = 1.476
r = 1.476-1
r = 0.476 or 47.6%
So the growth percentage or rate is 47.6%
For 14 weeks, we simply have the value of t as 14;
So ;
y = 3•(1 + 0.476)^14
y = 3(1.476)^14
y = 698 fishes
