Answer:

x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies directly with x means the times that y increases, the times x increases and vice versa.

If y increases from 3/5 to 12 is being increased:

12 / 3/5 = 20 times

Thus, the value of x is being increased by definition, also 20 times. The value of x is:

x = 0.125 * 20 = 2.5

<h3>x = 2.5</h3>

The average profit a local store owner earns on a given day is $960 and is growing
Ostrovityanka [42]

The average profit of the local store is an illustration of an exponential function

The profit function is: y = 960 * (0.9894)^{x}

<h3>How to determine the function</h3>

From the question, we have:

  • Initial value (a) = 960
  • Rate per year (b) = 88%

An exponential function is represented as:

y = ab^x

So, the function that represents the profit per year is:

y = 960 * (88\%)^x

Divide x by 12 to get the monthly rate

y = 960 * (88\%)^{x/12}

Evaluate the exponent

y = 960 * (0.9894)^{x}

Hence, the profit function is: y = 960 * (0.9894)^{x}
