Both these expression are written in slope-intercept form. y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
We can find the slope of each expression by finding what m is in each equation.
y = -3x + 2 -> m = -3
y = 4x - 5 -> m = 4
Remember that m = slope

Answer:
The width is 3 yds
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = length * width
18 = 6*w
Divide each side by 6
18/6 = 6w/6
3=w
The width is 3 yds
Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential Functions:
y=ab^x
y=ab
x
a=\text{starting value = }550
a=starting value = 550
r=\text{rate = }18.8\% = 0.188
r=rate = 18.8%=0.188
\text{Exponential Decay:}
Exponential Decay:
b=1-r=1-0.188=0.812
b=1−r=1−0.188=0.812
\text{Write Exponential Function:}
Write Exponential Function:
y=550(0.812)^x
y=550(0.812)
x
Put it all together
\text{Plug in y-value:}
Plug in y-value:
60=550(0.812)^x
60=550(0.812)
x
\frac{60}{550}=\frac{550(0.812)^x}{550}
550
60
=
550
550(0.812)
x
Divide both sides by 550
0.109091=0.812^x
0.109091=0.812
x
\log 0.109091=\log 0.812^x
log0.109091=log0.812
x
Take the log of both sides
\log 0.109091=x\log 0.812
log0.109091=xlog0.812
use power rule to bring x to the front
\frac{\log 0.109091}{\log 0.812}=\frac{x\log 0.812}{\log 0.812}
log0.812
log0.109091
=
log0.812
xlog0.812
Divide both sides by log(0.812)
10.638757=x
10.638757=x
x\approx 11
x≈11
It's the first one. Note that for each unit increase in x, y increases by 1/2:
outputs are 1/2, 2/2, 3/2, 4/2, corresponding to 1, 2, 3 and 4 as inputs.
