Answer:

y = 20*4^x

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the value of the constants a and b, we just need to use the points given in the equation and solve the system of equations:

point (0,20): x = 0 and y = 20:

20 = a*b^0 = a*1 = a

a = 20

point (2,320): x = 2 and y = 320

320 = 20 * b^2

b^2 = 16

|b| = 4

b = 4 or b = -4

So we have two exponencial equations that pass through these points:

y = 20*4^x and y = 20*(-4)^x

As the questions asks for just one equation, we can answer y = 20*4^x

Answer:

The exponential function is;

y = a \cdot b^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have;

y = ab^x

Therefore for points (0, 20) we have

20 = a·b⁰ = a

∴ a = 20

For point (2, 320) we have;

320 = 20×b²

Therefore, b² = 320/20 = 16

Hence b = √16 = 4

From the above, the exponential function y = a·b^x is given by substituting the values of a and b as follows;

y = 20×4^x.

Since A (area of circle = C) is given = 148
Where we assume:
Y represents radius of the circle (r)
X represents diameter of the circle (D)
Pi (π) = 3.14
A = 2 * π * y
148 = 2 * 3.14 * y
148 = 6.28 * y
y = 148/6.28
So, y = 23.56

D = 2 * y
D = 2 * 23.56
So, D = 47.12

Assume A is unknown (not given as 148)
A = π * y^2
A = 3.14 * (23.56)^2
A = 3.14 * 47.12
So, A = 147.95 (approx. A = 148)

What is the distance between the points (-3, 1) and (1, 3)?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

4.47

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

2^2+4^2=c^2

4+16=c^2

20=C^2

\sqrt{20}= \sqrt{c^2}

4.47=c
