Answer:

let the number = x

two more than the number = ( x + 2 )  

product of the number and ⅞ = ⅞x

if you add 15 to ( x + 2 ) the result will ⅞x

( x + 2 ) + 15 = ⅞x

8x + 16 +  120 = 7x

x = -136

Question 5
Vikentia [17]

The amount of sales (S) of statin in billions of dollars by 2017 is 34.5 billions

<h3>Linear equations</h3>

Linear equation are equation that has a leading degree of 1. Given the equation that represents Statins used to keep cholesterol in check and are a top-selling drug in the U.S.

S-1.5x = 6

where

S is the amount of sales

x is the number of years after 1998

By 2017, the total number of  years is 19 years

Substitute

S = 1.5x + 6

S = 1.5(19) + 6

S = 28.5 + 6

S = 34.5

The amount of sales (S) of statin in billions of dollars by 2017 is 34.5 billions

Cant figure this out pls help
astra-53 [7]

Answer: (below)

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions shown are exponential functions, which have the form f(x) = a*(b)^x. "a" represents the intial value, while "b" represents the growth factor.

To determine whether a function is growing or decaying, you look at the growth factor. If the growth factor is greater than 1, the function is growing, since each value is getting larger and larger. Meanwhile, if the growth factor is between 0 and 1, the function is decaying, since each value is getting smaller and smaller.

Now, back to this question, let's look at our functions. In the function on the left, the growth factor is 0.87, which is between 0 and 1, so this function is decaying. For the function on the right, the growth factor is 1.25, which is greater than 1, so this function is decaying. Next, let's look at our graphs. In the left graph, the function is growing, so it matches with the function on the right. Meanwhile, in the right graph, the function is decaying, so it matches with the function on the left.

Hope this helps!
