Answer:
The equation represents exponential growth
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the equation is a positive exponential equation
Suppose y=0. That means
<span>x+z = 18 </span>
<span>x-z = 26/5 </span>
<span>x = 58/5 </span>
<span>z = 32/5 </span>
<span>So, the largest x can be is 58/5 </span>
<span>Now, suppose we toss in y. If we subtract y/2 from both x and z, then the difference between x and z is still 26/5, and the sum is </span>
<span>(x-y/2) + y + (z-y/2) = x+z = 18 </span>
<span>For example, if y = 4, </span>
<span>x = 48/5 </span>
<span>y = 20/5 </span>
<span>z = 22/5 </span>
<span>x-z is still 26/5, and the sum is still 18. </span>
8.75+7.45=16.2. 16.2 is equal to $16.20 so 48.00-16.20=31.8. Jonathan had $31.80 left.
Answer:
Third option
m = 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the function is equal to its rate of change between two points.
For example, for a couple of points 
The slope is:

In this problem we have the following points
1.(2, 8.50) , 2. (5, 15.25), 3. (8, 22.00) , 4. (12, 31.00)
We calculate the slope between the first two points

We calculate the slope between the points 3 and 4

We calculate the slope between the points 2 and 3

The slope is always the same. Therefore m is constant and the fution is a line of slope m = 2.25
First box (under 1) is 7, next box (above 12.5) is 6.5 and the last box is 16
