When x increases from a to a +2, y increases by a factor of 1/4
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

y=7* (0.5)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that when x increases from 'a' to 'a+2' then y must increase by a factor of 1/4=0.25.

i.e. when x=a and x'=a+2.

then y/y=0.25 where y' is the function after putting x' to the old function.

Multiply the binomials: (w-9) • (w-4)
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

w² - 13w + 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(w - 9)(w - 4)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

w(w - 4) - 9(w - 4) ← distribute both parenthesis

= w² - 4w - 9w + 36 ← collect like terms

= w² - 13w + 36

Why is a sample of 1000 people better than a sample of 100 people?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The more people the more results you can factor into a situation. Like testing if you tested 100 there might be a low number of people testing positive but 1000 would be better as you'd have more tested positive and more info to look at if maybe a disease if gene related.
