The value at the end of the year is 100% - 20% = 0.80 of the value at the beginning of the year. After 4 years of multiplying by this factor, the value is
$17,500·0.80⁴ = $7,168
The relationship is linear.
The reason why is because each time x increases by 1, the value of y increases by 3. In other words, the slope is 3 and it is constant no matter what two points you pick
x = input
y = output
------------------------------
Extra Info:
slope = rise/run
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = 3/1
slope = 3
The y intercept is (0,6). Think backwards in terms of the pattern going on.
Or you can plug m = 3 and (x,y) = (1,9) into y = mx+b and solve for b to get b = 6
Answer:
A. (x-5)(x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to factor x^2-10x+25 into the form (x+y)(x+y) where 2y=-10 and y^2=25
2y=-10
y=-5
So this becomes (x-5)(x-5)
Hope this helped!
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
time is directly proportional to the number of problems in the set
=> x = ky
k = constant of proportionality
when k = 12
x = 12y
by making y the subject, we divide both sides by 12
=> y = x/12
