One way you could solve this is to just multiply the top and bottom out so that you get 9/81, reducing it by 9/9 to get 1/9 or option C.
Another way would be to do

since dividing numbers with exponents would be subtracting the bottom exponent from the top exponent, provided that the base number (in this case 3) is the same for both. For this method, you would get

, which is equal to 1/9 or .1 repeating, the same answer that you'd get with the first method.
Answer:
x-less than-or-equal-to 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 6 < 18 (less than or equal to)
4x < 12 (less than or equal to) x < 3 (less than or equal to)
Answer:
Pierre is right
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct formula for Exponential growth rate is given as:
y = a( 1 + r) ^t
Where
y = Amount after time t
a = Initial amount
r = Growth rate
t = time
From the question
a = 300
r = 2% = 0.02
Hence, our exponential growth rate =
y = 300( 1 + 0.02)^t
y = 300( 1.02)^t
Therefore, Pierre is right
