This is an equation of exponential decay
y(t) = a b^ t where a is the initial amount
b is the decay factor
t is the time in years
b is found by taking 1 and subtracting the percent it decreases in decimal form
Letting t =4
y(t) = 260 million * ( 1- .011) ^ 4
=248.7473796 million
=24874737.96
Rounding to a whole number
= 24874738
The fisherman caught 365kg During El Niño. You subtract 540kg by 85.
5/12(poetry) + 2/5(biographies) = 25/60 + 24/60 = 49/60
60/60 - 49/60= 11/60
11/60 are the remainder of the books in the shipment.
440...marked down by 30% means u pay 70%
70% of 440 = 0.70(440) = 308
308 ..marked down by 10% means u pay 90%
90% of 308 = 0.90(308) = 277.20 <== price after markdowns
It’s the first one! The table shows X going up and Y going down, so the slope would be negative!
