Answer:
y=8(0.5)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the value of b, which is the rate. The rate is 0.5 because the y value is consistently going down by 2. A is the first value, which is 8. y=8(0.5)^x









x = -1 makes the lengths of segments PQ and PR equal zero.
That is not possible, so the solution x = -1 is discarded.
x = 8
PS = 3x + 3 + 21
PS = 3x + 24
PS = 3(8) + 24
PS = 24 + 24
PS = 48
Answer:
4.12
Step-by-step explanation:
its 4.12 mark me brainiless
C(t)=26t^2+168t+4208, and we wish to know when C(t)=15000
26t^2+168t+4208=15000
26t^2+168t-10792=0
They want you to use the quadratic formula...
For a quadratic of the form ax^2+bx+c=0, the quadratic formula is:
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/(2a), in this case we have:
x=(-168±√1122368)/52, since x>0
x≈17.14
1958+17.14≈1975.14
So by 1976 the number of new cars will reach 15000.
