Answer:
RS = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
QS = 62
RS = ?
QR = 45
QS - QR = RS
62 - 45 = 17
Thus RS = 17
Answer:
The second table of values.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's put the x-values in the second table of values in correct number order:
x: -3, -2, -1, 0, 1
Now, let's write out the y-values in correct number order:
y: 1/4, 1, 4, 16, 64
Finally, let's rewrite the second table of values with the x-values in order and the corresponding y-values underneathe:
x: -3, -2, -1 0 1
y: 64, 16, 4, 1, 1/4
As it can be seen, as the x-values get bigger in value, the y-values get smaller exponentially, which is the definition of exponential decay.
You can start by drawing a number line and labeling it with eighths. ( 1/8, 2/8, etc.) Then you can place a dot on 3/8 and 5/8. From there, it's clear to see that 5/8 is greater than 3/8.
Answer:
If your investment dropped 7% and then increased by 8% you will not be a percent ahead. The reason being is that the increase is a lower amount and the decrease was on a larger amount.
For example, if you have $100 invested. 100*.07=$7, 100-7=$93 remaining. 93*08= $7.44. 93+7.44=100.44 (a .44 increase from the original number). One percent increase from the original number would have $101.
