First, plot 2x + 3y = 15 on a graph. Then plot (1,3) on a graph. After that, draw a line that passes through (1,3) and forms 90 degrees angles with 2x + 3y = 15. Then find the equation of that line by finding the y-intercept (0, 1.5). Then head up to the intersection point (1.6153846153846, 3.9230769230769). Subtract 1.5 from y. (2.4230769230769) Then divide by 1.5 (1.6153846153846). Reverse the operations you just did (in reverse order) to get the equation y = 1.5x + 1.5.

(I don't know how to explain this too well. Here's a graph to make more sense of it.)
The answer would be twenty five percent because four and one half is equal to seventy-five percent and one hundred minus seventy-five would be twenty-five.
I think it is 350(1.2)^t because you take the starting amount (350) and then multiple it by the growth rate (which is 20%, but when added to 100 and the put into a decimal is 1.2) raised by the number of hours (t). I hope this helps.
