Your numbers are 11 and 32

We know that:
a + b = 44
and
a = 3b

If we substitute “3b” in for a in the first equation, we get a numerical value for b

3b + b = 44
4b = 44
b = 11

Then we substitute the numerical value of b to solve for a:
a = 3b
a = 3(11) = 33

An exponential function f(x) = ab^xpasses through the points (0, 2) and (3, 54). What are the values of a and
Vsevolod [243]

Answers:

a = 2

b = 3

=======================================================

Explanation:

Plug in x = 0 and y = 2 to find that

y = a*b^x

2 = a*b^0

2 = a*1

2 = a

a = 2

Then plug in x = 3 and y = 54 to determine the value of b

y = a*b^x

y = 2*b^x

54 = 2*b^3

2b^3 = 54

b^3 = 54/2

b^3 = 27

b = (27)^(1/3)

b = 3

So we have y = a*b^x update to y = 2*3^x

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

D. The scuba diver was 35 meters below the surface of water at the start of the ascent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of the graph representing the scuba's driver ascent to the surface is -35.

This represents the starting level below the surface of the water.

✅-35, means that the driver was 35 meters below the surface of water at the start of the scuba's ascent to the surface.
