Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use 2 coordinates from the table along with the standard form for an exponential function to write the equation that models that data. The standard form for an exponential function is
where x and y are coordinates from the table, a is the initial value, and b is the growth/decay rate. I will use the first 2 coordinates from the table: (0, 3) and (1, 1.5)
Solving first for a:
. Sine anything in the world raised to a power of 0 is 1, we can determine that
a = 3. Using that value along with the x and y from the second coordinate I chose, I can then solve for b:
. Since b to the first is just b:
1.5 = 3b so
b = .5
Filling in our model:
Since the value for b is greater than 0 but less than 1 (in other words a fraction smaller than 1), this table represents a decay function.
Answer:
y = 120
x = 10.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given polygons are parallelograms.
In parallelograms, consecutive angles are supplementary which means their sum is equal to 180.
Since two parallelograms are similar:
60 + y = 180 subtract 60 from both sides
y = 120
To find the value of x:
side lengths are proportional because these are similar polygons
cross multiply fractions
18x + 72 = 264 subtract 72 from both sides
18x = 192 divide both sides by 18
x = 10.6 approximately
Total of $7.75
13 more quarters than nickels
15 nickels = $0.75
28 quarters = $7.00
28 - 15 = 13 coins
$7.00 + $0.75 = $7.75
She has 15 nickels and 28 quarters.
Answer:
9.3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the radius of the spinner be given below:
Let us assume the same be x
So
We know that
Total area of the sector = one-sixth of the total area of the spinner
Given that
45.1 = 1 ÷ 6 × π × r^2
r^2 = 45.1 × 6 ÷ π
r^2 = 86.1
r = 9.279
= 9.3 inches
