.67
Step-by-step explanation6 divided by 9
Answer:
y=27x
Step-by-step explanation:
first you have to do 3x9 to get the answer witch is 27 so then it wants an eqation so the eqation would be y=27x
<h3>
Answer: False</h3>
==============================================
Explanation:
I'm assuming you meant to type out
(y-2)^2 = y^2-6y+4
This equation is not true for all real numbers because the left hand side expands out like so
(y-2)^2
(y-2)(y-2)
x(y-2) .... let x = y-2
xy-2x
y(x)-2(x)
y(y-2)-2(y-2) ... replace x with y-2
y^2-2y-2y+4
y^2-4y+4
So if the claim was (y-2)^2 = y^2-4y+4, then the claim would be true. However, the right hand side we're given doesn't match up with y^2-4y+4
--------------------------
Another approach is to pick some y value such as y = 2 to find that
(y-2)^2 = y^2-6y+4
(2-2)^2 = 2^2 - 6(2) + 4 .... plug in y = 2
0^2 = 2^2 - 6(2) + 4
0 = 4 - 6(2) + 4
0 = 4 - 12 + 4
0 = -4
We get a false statement. This is one counterexample showing the given equation is not true for all values of y.
This is an exponential equation that can be represented by the following:
f(x) = a(b)^x
In this case...
25143 = a(0.66)^3
25143 is the population after 3 hours.
3 is the amount of time in hours.
0.66 represents the percent of the population remaining after each hour (66% as there is a 34% decline each hour).
We must solve for a, which is the initial population.
First, simplify (0.66)^3 to 0.2874.
25143 = 0.2874a
Now divide both sides by 0.2874 to isolate a.
a = 87455
There were initially 87,455 people within the city. I wouldn't want to be in that place!
