Answer:
the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
in order for it to be a function the x values CANNOT repeat.
in answer a the x value -6 repeats so that cannot be a function
in answer b none of the x values repeat so its probably this one but lets check the other ones just in case
in answer c the x value 8 repeats so it cannot be this one
in answer d the x value -2 repeats so it cant be this one \
b is the only one that does have repeating x values therefore it is the second one
Answer: -16
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 is less than -2 so use the first one
Plug into equation
5(-3)-1
-15-1= -16
An increase of 2% per year means the population is multiplied by 1.02 each year. Your exponential function with a base of 1.02 and a scale factor of 5.3 (billion) will look like this:
... q(t) = 5.3×1.02^t
The answer would be A, since the occurance is based purely on chance
