I think she would have to divide 2/3 by 1/2. So you would do 2/3 x 2/1 and since 2/1 is equal to 2 the answer would be B

Given:
The function is:
Where y is the sales of lawn mowers t years after a particular model is introduced.
To find:
How many mowers will be sold 3 years after a model is introduced?
Solution:
We have,
Substituting 
, we get
On substituting the approximate value of ln(31), we get
Therefore, the 18887 mowers will be sold 3 years after a model is introduced.
The store owner sold 4/5 of the suitces. That means 1/5 of the suitcases are left. Multiple 225 to 1/5
There are 45 suitcases left
A) because when they are equal it means that their y has the same value, which means their intersection point.
B) You should take all integers from (-2, 2) which are: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 and put them one by one in the example:
x = -2
y1 = 4^-(-2) = 4^2 = 16
y2 = 2^(-(-2) + 1) = 2^(2+1) = 2^3 = 8
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=-2 isn't our answer
-------------------------------------------------------
x = -1
y1 = 4^-(-1) = 4^1 = 4
y2 = 2^(-(-1) + 1) = 2^(1+1) = 2^2 = 4
y1 = y2 => so our answer will be x = -1
-------------------------------------------------------
x = 0
y1 = 4^-(0) = 4^0 = 1
y2 = 2^(-(0) + 1) = 2^(0+1) = 2^1 = 2
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=0 isn't our answer
--------------------------------------------------------------
x = 1
y1 = 4^-(1) = 4^(-1) = 1/4
y2 = 2^(-(1) + 1) = 2^(-1+1) = 2^0 = 1
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=1 isn't our answer
--------------------------------------------------------------
x = 2
y1 = 4^-(2) = 4^(-2) = 1/16
y2 = 2^(-(2) + 1) = 2^(-2+1) = 2^(-1) = 1/2
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=2 isn't our answer
Which means that our final answer is: x=-1
C) You should draw both graphics, and their intersection point (x) will be the answer.

To solve quadratics, the most correct and effective way, in my opinion, is the quadratic formula:
<span><span>
Plugging it in, we get:
</span></span>
So the final answer is:
and
