Answer:

C y = 4x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,-8) means x=1, y=-8

(4,4) means x=4, y=4

so, for which of the offered equations are both pairs right ?

a -8 = 4x1 + 12 = 16 wrong already for the first pair

b -8 = -4x1 - 12 = -16 wrong already for the first pair

c -8 = 4x1 - 12 = -8 hey, right !

4 = 4x4 - 12 = 16 - 12 = 4. hey, right

d -8 = -4x4 + 12 = -16 + 12 = -4. wrong already for the first pair

so, C describes an equation that covers both points. it is a linear function (no squares or so), and so it is a line function passing through both points.

a country's population in 1990 was 134 million. in 2000 it was a 139 million. estimate the population in 2014 using the exponent

yuradex [85]

F=ir^t

139=134r^10

139/134=r^10

r=(139/134)^(1/10) then:

f=134(139/134)^(t/10) so in 2014, t=24 so

f=134(139/134)^(2.4)

f≈146 million (to nearest million)

Some will say that you have to use the exponential function, but it really gives you the same answer...even for continuous compounding :)...

A=Pe^(kt)

139=134e^(10k)

139/134=e^(10k)

ln(139/134)=10k

k=ln(139/134)/10 so

A=134e^(t*ln(139/134)/10) when t=24

A=134e^(2.4*ln(139/134))

A≈146 million (to nearest million)

The only real reason or advantage to using A=Pe^(kt) is when you start getting into differential equations...
