Answer:

If the number being multiplied by -1 is positive it just turns it negative, but if the number being multiplied by -1 is also negative it becomes positive. Basically if flips the sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

EX) 25 x -1 = -25

EX) -25 x -1 = 25

During a tunnel construction project, engineers used explosives to excavate partway into a mountain. Because of time constraints
AnnyKZ [126]

The given data can be tabulated as:

number of days,x                            length of tunnel (ft), y

0                                                                              225

5                                                                              350

20                                                                           725

30                                                                           975

55                                                                           1,600

 

To check if the growth is linear, the slope at points (0, 225) and (5, 350), and (0, 225) and (20, 725) should be equal. The formula for slope is:

m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)

 

Finding for slope (0, 225) and (5, 350):

m = (350 – 225) / (5 – 0) = 25

 

Finding for slope (0, 225) and (20, 725):

m = (725 – 225) / (20 – 0) = 25

 

Therefore the equation is linear in the form of:

y = mx + b

where b is the value of y at x = 0, so b = 225

 

The complete equation is:

y = 25x + 225

 

At x = 86 days

y = 25(86) + 225

y = 2,375 ft

 

Therefore the length of the completed tunnel is 2,375 feet.

The following functions give the populations of four towns with time tt in years.
expeople1 [14]

Solution :

Transforming given equations :

1)\ P = 600( 1 + \dfrac{12}{100})^t\\\\2)\ P = 1000( 1 + \dfrac{3}{100})^t\\\\3)\ P = 200( 1 + \dfrac{8}{100})^t\\\\4)\ P = 900( 1 - \dfrac{10}{100})^t

From above equations we can see that equation 1) has largest percentage growth rate and the percent growth rate is 12% .

Hence, this is the required solution.
