the problem would be set up as 6+(7*x)=41
first u take off the number 6 by subtracting it from itself to cancel it out then u do the same to the number 41
7x =41 now u need to cancel out the number 7 attatched to the x so u divikde it by itself and then do the same to the other side so 41 divided by 7 =5.9
so x =5.9
the answer is 40
in
X 1 (+1) 2 (+1) 3 (+1) 4 (+1) 5
Y 4 (+9) 13 (+9) 22 (+9) 31 (+9) 40
705,003 is seven hundred five thousand, three in standard form
I'm not sure what your variables are, but I will try task 3 with you.
y=$500(in billions)
x= the number of years that have passed since 2009
percentage of decrease: 1 - % =
so your formula will look like this: y(1 - %)^x
