Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where
m = slope
c = intercept
The equation of the given line is
y = 47x - 3
Comparing with the slope intercept equation, m = 47
If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line passing through (14, 4) is 47
We would determine the intercept, c by substituting m= 47, x = 14 and y = 4 into y = mx + c. It becomes
4 = 47× 14 + c
4 = 658 + c
c = 4 - 658 = - 654
The equation becomes
y = 47x - 654
Answer:
The correct answer is D 46.3644
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
