Looking at the two black dots
5 bulbs cost $9
Divide total cost by number of bulbs bought:
9 / 5 = $1.80 per bulb.
10 bulbs cost $18
Divide total cost by number of bulbs bought:
18 / 10 = $1.80 per bulb
The cost for one bulb is $1.80
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the expression

First we need to distribute the negative throughout the parenthesis. Then we can combine like terms in order to simplify this expression

This answer matches D.
Exponential function is characterized by an exponential increase or decrease of the value from one data point to the next by some constant. When you graph an exponential function, it would start by having a very steep slope. As time goes on, the slope decreases until it levels off. The general from of this equation is: y = A×b^x, where A is the initial data point at the start of an event, like an experiment. The term 'b' is the constant of exponential change. This is raised to the power of x, which represents the independent variable, usually time.
So, the hint for you to find is the term 500 right before the term with an exponent. For example, the function would be: y = 500(1.8)^x.
