valent function are shown below: [Step 1] f(x) = 800(1.09)4x
[Step 2] f(x) = 800(1.094)x
[Step 3] f(x) = 800(1.4116)x
[Step 4] f(x) = (1129.27)x

Ok, make sure you put the powers correctly. I know what you mean but someone else may not. So it's step 2. This is because the 4 doesn't mean add a digit.

Answer:

Step 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the function

f(x)=800(1.09)^4x shows the growth due to interest that Jim earns on an investment .

We are given that the steps to calculate an equivalent function .

We have to find the first incorrect step in calculation.

Step 1 f(x)=800(1.09)^4x

Step 2 f(x)=800(1.09\times1.09\times 1.09\times1.09)x

Step 3f(x)=800(1.4116)x

Step 4f(x)=(1,129.28) x

In second step Jim makes an mistake because he did  not  solved power correctly. He takes power as 0.004 and add to base then he gets 1.094. It is incorrect step of Jim.

So, Jim makes first mistake in step 1.

he point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through points (8, 4) and (0, 2) is y – 4 = (x – 8). What is the slope
fgiga [73]

You have y-4 = (x-8)

Add 4 to each side:

Y = (x-8) +4

Remove the parenthesis and combine like terms to get:

y = x-4

The slope, m, of a linear equation can be found using the formula m = , where the x- and y-values come from two ordered pairs,
Westkost [7]
The formula is y=mx + b, or rearranged would be m= y/x -b/x.

3(x + 1) = -2 (x - 1) -4
AlekseyPX

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

use distribution

3x + 3 = -2x + 2 - 4

simplify

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

combine like terms

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

-3x                -3x

3 = -5x - 2

+2         +2

5 = -5x

/-5     /-5

-1 = x
