Liner function is the correct term
Question
a) What is the decay factor?
b) What is the percent decrease?
c) Estimate the number of black and white TV's sold in 1999.
Answer:
a. Decay factor = 0.85
b. Percent decrease = 15%
c. 19.363 million TVs were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Solving (a): The decay factor
An exponential function has the form

Where b is:

By comparison:

Solving (b): Percentage decrease:
Percentage decrease P is calculated as follows:

Substitute 0.85 for b


Convert to percentage


Solving (c): TVs sold in 1999
First, we need to determine the value of t for 1999
In 1997, t= 0
In 1998, t= 1
In 1999, t= 2
So, we substitute 2 for t in: 



Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5 consecutive multiples of 5....
x , x + 5, x + 10, x + 15, x + 20
the average is 20...
(x + x + 5 x + 10 + x + 15 + x + 20) / 5 = 20
(5x + 50) / 5 = 20
5x + 50 = 20 * 5
5x + 50 = 100
5x = 100 - 50
5x = 50
x = 50/5
x = 10......smallest number
x + 5 = 10 + 5 = 15
x + 10 = 10 + 10 = 20
x + 15 = 10 + 15 = 25
x + 20 = 10 + 20 = 30 <=== largest number
Answer:
9 out of 12 is 75%
Step-by-step explanation:
you would divide 9 by 12, and your answer would be:
1) 0.75 for decimal form
2) 75% for percentage
3) 3/4 for fraction
Mean is 750 and mode is 850
