12 IF APOR is similar to AXYZ, which of the following statements must be true?

Which is an ordered pair on the line 2.5,14 2.25,12 1.25,5 1.5,9

Savatey [412]

I would think that all but one point would be on the line. One way to approach this problem is to find the equation of the line based upon any two points chosen at random, and then determine whether or not the other points satisfy this equation. Next time, would you please enclose the coordinates of each point inside parentheses: (2.5,14), (2.25,12), and so on, to avoid confusion.
14-12
slope of line thru 1st 2 points is m = ---------------- = 2/0.25 = 8
2.50-2.25

What is the eqn of the line: y = mx + b becomes

14 = (8)(2.5) + b; find b:

14-20 = b = -6. Then, y = 8x - 6.

Now determine whether (12,1.25) lies on this line.

Is 1.25 = 8(12) - 6? Is 1.25 = 90? No. So, unless I've made arithmetic mistakes, (1.25, 5) does not lie on the line thru (2.5,14) and (2.25,12).

Why not work this problem out yourself using my approach as a guide?

A glass is 4/7 full. Then 70 cm³ orange juice is poured in. The glass is now 3/4 full.

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The volume of the glass is 217.8 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

If the glass were initially 4/7 full, that means 3/7 of the volume is still available to hold more juice.

Let v represent the volume of the glass.

Then (3/7)v + 70 cm³ = (3/4)v.

We need to solve this for v.

Here the LCD is 28. Thus,

(3/7)v + 70 cm³ = (3/4)v → (12/28)v + 70 cm³ = (21/28)v.

Subtracting (12/28)v from both sides, we get:

70 cm³ = (9/28)v.

We can isolate v by mult. both sides by the inverse of 9/28, which is 28/9:

(28/9)(70 cm³) = v

The volume of the glass is 217.8 cm³

I dont understand how to do this precalc question

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

x-intercept: (-0.1, 0)
Horizontal Asymptote: y = -3
Exponential <u>growth</u>

(First answer option)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>General form of an exponential function</u>

$y=ab^x+c$

where:

a is the initial value (y-intercept).
b is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal form:
If b > 1 then it is an increasing function.
If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function.
y=c is the horizontal asymptote.
x is the independent variable.
y is the dependent variable.

Given <u>exponential function</u>:

$y=4(10)^x-3$

<h3><u>x-intercept</u></h3>

The x-intercept is the point at which the curve crosses the x-axis, so when y = 0. To find the x-intercept, substitute y = 0 into the given equation and solve for x:

$\begin{aligned}& \textsf{Set the function to zero}:& 4(10)^x-3 &=0\\\\& \textsf{Add 3 to both sides}:& 4(10)^x &=3\\\\& \textsf{Divide both sides by 4}:& 10^x &=\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\& \textsf{Take natural logs of both sides}:& \ln 10^x &=\ln\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)\\\\& \textsf{Apply the power log law}:&x \ln 10 &=\ln\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)\\\\& \textsf{Divide both sides by }\ln 10:&x&=\dfrac{\ln\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)}{\ln 10} \\\\& \textsf{Simplify}:&x&=-0.1\:\:\sf(1\:d.p.)\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the x-intercept is (-0.1, 0) to the nearest tenth.

<h3><u>Asymptote</u></h3>

An <u>asymptote</u> is a line that the curve gets infinitely close to, but never touches.

The <u>parent function</u> of an <u>exponential function</u> is:

$f(x)=b^x$

As<em> </em>x approaches -∞ the function f(x) approaches zero, and as x approaches ∞ the function f(x) approaches ∞.

Therefore, there is a horizontal asymptote at y = 0.

This means that a function in the form $f(x) = ab^x+c$ always has a horizontal asymptote at y = c.

Therefore, the horizontal asymptote of the given function is y = -3.

<h3><u>Exponential Growth and Decay</u></h3>

A graph representing exponential growth will have a curve that shows an <u>increase</u> in y as x increases.

A graph representing exponential decay will have a curve that shows a <u>decrease</u> in y as x increases.

The part of an exponential function that shows the growth/decay factor is the base (b).

If b > 1 then it is an increasing function.
If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function.

The base of the given function is 10 and so this confirms that the function is increasing since 10 > 1.

Daniel works at a nearby electronic store he makes a commission of 15% on everything he sells if you saw the laptop for $293 how

weqwewe [10]

He makes commission of 15% on everything he sells.....so if he sells 293 worth of stuff, then he would make 15% of 293

15% of 293.....turn ur percent to a decimal..." of " means multiply
0.15 * 293 = 43.95 <==
