C is your answer. 5x + 2 = 17

First let’s get them all in terms of x:
Box kites = 3x
Dragon kites = x + 2
Butterfly kites = x

Adding all those up:

x + 3x + x + 2 = 17
Combine like terms:
5x + 2 = 17

sergejj [24]
Y = a (b^x)

1) x = 0, y = 3500

=> 3500 = a (b^0)

=> 3500 = a (1)

=> a = 3500

2) growth percent = 3.5% => growth rate = 1.035 = b

=> y = 3500 (1.035)^ x

3) year 2020 => x = 2020 - 2000 = 20

4) y = 3500 (1.035)^ 20 = 6964

Answer: 6964.

What is two hundred sixty-five thousandths in standard form?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

10^-1*2.65

Step-by-step explanation:

two hundred sixty-five thousandths= 0.265

We need a number between 1 and 10, to do the multiplication in standard form, so 0.265 turns into 2.65.

Because 2.65 becomes, smaller we use a negative power. We only move the decimal place once to the left, so we would multiply 2.65 by 10^1.

10^-1*2.65=0.265
