Answer:
$25
Step-by-step explanation:
b= 45
x= number of hours
y= amount charged
The answer is, in order, -4.5, and -4.375
The general shape is that of an exponential function. Since the horizontal asymptote is -3, it appears to be shifted down 3. The y-intercept is 1 unit above the horizontal asymptote, so it appears there has been no horizontal shift.
For x=1, the curve goes through a point 6 units above the horizontal asymptote. This suggests the equation is
y = 6^x - 3
Although a radical cannot be expressed as a terminating or recurring decimal or a fraction, it can be approximated. This approximation can be expressed as a decimal or a fraction. So if a decimal, ordinary rules of arithmetic apply.
If a fraction, ordinary rules for subtracting fractions apply.
EXAMPLE
99/70 is a good approximation for √2. Let’s see how we would calculate 5-√2=5-99/70=(350-99)/70=251/70=3⁴¹⁄₇₀.
√2=1.4142 to 4 places of decimals. So 5-√2=5-1.4142=3.5858. When we work out 3⁴¹⁄₇₀ as a decimal to 4 places we get 3.5857.
So treat radicals like other real numbers. When giving an answer you may need to say what accuracy you are using (so many decimal places) or the question may tell you how many decimal places are needed.
Answer: C
For the people who want only one answer and not 2 for the question if you can only submit one answer :)
