1. Plug in -3 for a
14-(-3)^2
14-9
5
Final answer: 5
2. 15 more than r=15+r (notice the keyword more) equals 61
Final answer: r+15=61
The number in exponential form should have an exponent of 3 so x^3 equals 3^3 (3×3×3=27). Since the exponent is the same, set the bases equal. Answer: A. X=3
For this case we have a function of the form:
y = A * (b) ^ t
Where,
A: initial amount
b: growth rate
t: time
Substituting values we have:
y = 1000 * (3) ^ ((1/8) * t)
For 24 years we have:
y = 1000 * (3) ^ ((1/8) * 24)
y = 27000
Answer:
D) 27,000; exponential
