Answer:

f(x) = 30 • 0.989x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

10 26.8

20 23.9

30 21.3

40 19

50 16.9

60 15.1

Using technology, the exponential model equation obtained by plotting the data is :

y = 30.068(0.989)^x

Based on the general exponential formula :

y = ab^x

y = predicted value

Initial value, a = 30.068

Rate = b = 0.989

The most appropriate model equation from the options given is :

f(x) = 30 • 0.989^x

Answer:

$733.33

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on finding the principal value

Formulae for simple interest

S.I= P×R/100×T where P is the invested amount of money, R is interest rate and T is time in years

Given that;

Simple interest=$77 , R=7% and T=1.5 years then

S.I= P×R/100×T...................substituting the values given

77=P×7/100 × 1.5

77=P×0.105

77/0.105 =P

$733.33=P

Which polynomial is a perfect square trinomial? (4 points) 9x2 − 12x + 4 36b2 − 24b + 16 16x2 − 24x − 9 4a2 − 10a − 25ynomial is
o-na [289]

Answer:

9x² − 12x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square trinomial:

a² + 2ab +b²= (a + b)²

a² - 2ab +b²= (a - b)²

9x² − 12x + 4 = (3x)² - 2*(3x)*2 + 2² = (3x - 2)²

36b² − 24b + 16

16x² − 24x − 9

4a² − 10a − 25
