The answer is -4 final answer
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of an exponential equation is ...
f(x) = (initial value)(growth factor)^x
That is, the "growth factor" is the base of the exponent. In your equation ...
f(x) = (1/5)(15^x)
the growth factor is 15.
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the equation:
First, subtract 20 from both sides:
Now, we can stop. Recall that absolute value will always <em>always</em> give a positive answer.
Since this equals -16, this means that there is no solution.
And we're done!
Answer:
- table: 14, 16, 18
- equation: P = 2n +12
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter values will be ...
rectangles . . . perimeter
1 . . . 14
2 . . . 16
3 . . . 18
__
The perimeter of a figure is twice the sum of the length and width. Here, the length is a constant 6. The width is n, the number of rectangles. So, the perimeter is ...
P = 2(6 +n) = 12 +2n
Your equation is ...
P = 2n +12 . . . . . . . . perimeter P of figure with n rectangles.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
You may be expected to write the equation using y and x for the perimeter and the number of rectangles. That would be ...
y = 2x +12 . . . . . . . . . perimeter y of figure with x rectangles
Answer: 12 = r
Step-by-step explanation: When we have this kind of a setup, we want to put our variables together on one side of the equation and our numbers together on the other side of the equation.
First, let's put our variables on the right side by subtracting 3r from both sides of the equation. That gives us 5 = 2r - 19.
Now we can move our numbers to the left by adding 19 to both sides of the equation and we get 24 = 2r.
Divide both sides by 2 and 12 = r
