Answer:
equation: y = 4x
graph is attached
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y represent the cost of the peaches in dollars. Let x represent their weight in pounds. Then the relation between the two variables is ...
cost = (cost per pound) × (pounds)
y = 4x
__
This graphs as a line through the origin with a slope of 4. In the attached, the x- and y-axes have different scales so more of the graph can be seen.
Answer:
The rate of decrease is 8%
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The general equation for the radioactive decay can be written as:
where
a is the amount in kilograms after time t.
a_0 is the original amount of the substance or y-intercept of the function
r is the decay rate, written in decimals.
t is the time
In this problem we have
so
solve for r
