Answer:
Not totally sure if i'm reading the question right buuuut;
the answer is (I think) a poplar would reach 40 feet high in 5 years, while the red maple would reach the goal in 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
using division, 40/8 = 5 years
40/ 5 = 8 years.
like I said, not positive I read the question correctly but I hope this helps xx have a nice day :)
Answer:
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
It is always a good idea to look at the question and make some observations about it. Here, you might observe ...
- all of the bases are powers of 3: 243 = 3^5; 9 = 3^2
- y is a factor of every exponent
The latter observation is important, because it means that when y=0, every exponential expression has a value of 1. Hence y = 0 is a solution.

To solve the equation, you can write it in terms of powers of 3.
(3^5)^(-y) = (3^-5)^(3y)·(3^2)^(-2y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-15y)·3^(-4y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-19y)
-5y = -19y . . . . . . . . equating exponents; equivalent to taking log base 3
14y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 19y
y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . one solution
______
The rules of exponents we used are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)
1/a^b = a^-b
Answer:
Neither
Step-by-step explanation:
equation 1 is a negative slope, equation 2 is a positive slope, but with a different slope.
The expression is 55/5 - 20/4
11-5
the answer is 6
