Answer:

a: initial value above c
b: growth/decay factor
c: horizontal asymptote

Step-by-step explanation:

The value c represents the horizontal asymptote.

The value "a" is the amount above the horizontal asymptote at x=0.

The value b is the growth factor, the amount that the difference from c is multiplied by when x increases by 1.

If b > 1, the function is a <em>growth</em> function and will increase in magnitude to the right.

If b < 1, the function is a <em>decay</em> function and will approach the horizontal asymptote to the right.

10. Jenna flips two pennies 105 times. How

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you flip two coins, you can have 4 different outcomes:

All outcomes are equally likely, but notice that if you do not keep track of which coin is which, you will get 1/4 of the flips to be both heads, 1/4 of the flips to be both tails, and 1/2 of the flips to be one heads and one tails.

p(both heads) = 1/4

With 105 flips, the expected number of both heads is

105 * 1/4 = 26.25

Graph the line that passes through the points (6,-4) and (3,-6) and determine

Answer:

$y = \frac23x - 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

First, let's plot the points and draw a straight line through them (image).

Remember that a coordinate is given in the format of (x,y).

<h3 /><h3>Parts of a Line</h3>

Equation format: $y = mx + b$

m = slope
b = y-intercept

The slope is how the graph changes in y as it does in x. Given our two points, the graph rises 2 units and runs 3. That means that the slope is $\frac23$ .

$y = \frac23x + b$

The y-intercept is the intersection of the graph and the y-axis. The intersection takes place at y = -8, so the y-intercept is -8.

$y = \frac23x - 8$

The equation is $y = \frac23x - 8$ .
