Answer:
C. Every year the number of subscribers is estimated to increase by 8% over the
number of subscribers the year before.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the formula :
S = 20,000 (1 + 0.08)^y to estimate ;
S = number of subscribers ; y = years
The expression : (1 + 0.08)^y
0.08 = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
(1 + 0.08)^y represents a continous growth or increase in the number of subcsribers by 8% over the number of subscribers the preceeding year

<span>Multiply the number in the tens place of the bottom number by the number in hundreds place of the top number. Multiply 3 times 7 to equal 21. Add the 1 you carried to equal 22. You don't need to carry the 2 in 22, as there are no more numbers to multiply on this line, so you can just write it down next to the 6.</span>
-4(x + 1) + 5 = 17
Distribute -4 inside the parentheses.
(-4x - 4) + 5 = 17
Combine like terms (-4 + 5).
-4x + 1 = 17
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-4x = 16
Divide both sides by -4.
x = -4
