1] Given that the value of x has been modeled by f(x)=12500(0.87)^x, then:
the rate of change between years 1 and 5 will be:
rate of change is given by:
[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)
thus:
f(1)=12500(0.87)^1=10875
f(5)=12500(0.87)^5=6230.3
rate of change will be:
(6230.3-10875)/(5-1)
=-1161.2
rate of change in years 11 to 15 will be:
f(11)=12500(0.87)^11=2701.6
f(15)=12500(0.87)^15=1,547.74
thus the rate of change will be:
(1547.74-2701.6)/(15-11)
=-288
dividing the two rates of change we get:
-288/-1161.2
-=1/4
comparing the two rate of change we conclude that:
The average rate of change between years 11 and 15 is about 1/4 the rate between years 1 and 5.
The answer is D]
2] Given that the population of beavers decreases exponentially at the rate of 7.5% per year, the monthly rate will be:
monthly rate=(n/12)
where n is the number of months
=7.5/12
=0.625
This is approximately equal to 0.65%. The correct answer is A. 0.65%
Which set of ordered pairs represents a function? {(0, 1), (1, 3), (1, 5), (2, 8)} {(0, 0), (1, 2), (2, 6), (2, 8)} {(0, 0), (0,
11111nata11111 [884]
Answer: {(0, 2), (1, 4), (2, 6), (3, 6)}
Step-by-step explanation:
For a relation to be considered a function, each x-value needs to have one corresponding y-value--it cannot have more than 1.
Since all the other sets of ordered pairs feature points with two x-values with different y-values, the set above is the only function of the provided options.
Answer:
13:11
Step-by-step explanation:
325:275
If divided by 5 all through, you get 65:55, then by 5 again you get 13:11
Answer:
hmg = E
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
h = E/mg
Step 2: Multiply both sides by mg
hmg = E
Remember, |n|≥0 for all real numbers n
so
-|x|=0
times -1
|x|=0
true, x=0, has a solution
|x|=-15
false, can't have negative absolute value
-|x|=12
|x|=-12
false, no negative absolute value
-|-x|=9
|-x|=-9
false, no negative absolute value
-|-x|=-2
|-x|=2
x=2 or -2
true, has solutions
the ones that have no solutions are
|x|=-15
-|x|=12
-|-x|=9
