Answer:

one way to solve this question is to realize that every 100 pounds on planet A equals only 3 pounds on planet B.

 

So, 5000 pounds divided by 100 = 50. Then that number times 3 will give the weigh on planet B which is 150 pounds.

 

Algebraically, 100/3 = 5000/x; when we cross multiply, we get 15000/3 = x; x = 150

150. Divide 5000 by 100 and you get 50. Multiply 3 by 50 and you get 150.

QUESTION 6
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Option D. 17%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=250,000(1.17)^{x}

This is a exponential function of the form

f(x)=a(b)^{x}

where

a is the initial value

b is the base

In this problem

a=250,000 people

b=1.17

Remember that

b=1+r

so

1+r=1.17

r=1.17-1=0.17

Convert to percentage

0.17*100=17%

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

First one: 5x3(0.75)2t

and fourth one: 0.05x500(0.005)t

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to have an exponencial decay, the rate of the exponencial function needs to be lesser than 1.

The rate is the value between parenthesis, so in the first equation, the rate is 0.75, so this is an exponencial decay.

The second equation has rate = 2.4, so this is not an exponencial decay.

The third equation has rate = 1.04, so this is not an exponencial decay.

The fourth equation has rate = 0.005, so this is an exponencial decay.
