X➝-x by reflection, so g(x)=-x
Find the x and y intercepts or any other 2 points. (I advise you finding the y intercept though.)
then calculate for slope using:
y(2) - y(1)
________
x(2) - x(1)
The (2) and (1) are not exponents they are small numbers at the bottom of the numbers.
The slope is: 4
Answer:
i only understand part A:
a) Yes, the more time the plant spend in sunlight, the taller it grows. for example, the plant that spend no time in the sun only grows to 4cm while the plant that spent 9 hours in the sun grew to 31
Correct answers are:
(1) <span>28, 141 known cases
(2) 79913.71 known cases after six weeks (round off according to the options given)
(3) After approx. 9 weeks (9.0142 in decimal)
Explanations:
(1) Put x = 0 in given equation
</span><span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^x
</span><span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^(0)
</span>y= 28, 141
(2) Put x = 6 in the given equation:
<span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^x
</span><span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^(6)
</span>y= 79913.71
(3) Since
y= 28, 141 (1.19)^x
And y = <span>135,000
</span>135,000 = 28, 141 (1.19)^x
135,000/28, 141 = (1.19)^x
taking "ln" on both sides:
ln(4.797) = ln(1.19)^x
ln(4.797) = xln(1.19)
x = 9.0142 (in weeks)
4 2/9=8/9
8/9 x 6=48/9= 5 3/9
5 3/9= 5 1/3
