Answer:
Neither linear nor exponential
Step-by-step explanation:
To check for a linear relationship. Find slope.
slope= (-1 - (-2)) / ( 5 - 2) = 1/3
check other points
slope = (1 - (-1) )/ (8 - 5) = 2/3
check more
slope = (4 - 1) / (11 - 8) = 3/ 3 = 1
Nope.
try assuming an exponential:
y = c * (a^x)
-2 = c* (a^2); -2/c = a^2
-1 = c *(a ^5); -1/c = a^5
1 = c * (a^8), 1/c = a^8
(-2/c)^4 = a^8 = 1/c
16/(c^4) = 1/c
c^3 = 16, then a = root (-2/ cube-root(16) )
The change from negative to postive would not work for y = c(a^x)
so...
assume y = a^x + k
-2 = a^2 + k
-1 = a^5 + k
... I would say neither..
Can you add the picture to the question?
Answer:
3/8 + 3/8 = 6/8 = 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3 out of 8. or=+ 3 out of 8
-2 is the correct answer.
Answer: 42 - 8x
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the complete question:
Jessica had $15. She bought 3 apples for x dollars each. Levi had $27 and bought 5 apples for x dollars each. Which expression represents how much money both Jessica and Levi have left altogether?
Select one:
27 – 5x
42 – 8x
12 – 2x
39 – 3x
From the question, Jessica had $15. She bought 3 apples for x dollars each. This means she had:
15 - (3 × x) = 15 - 3x
Levi had $27 and bought 5 apples for x dollars each. Levi will have:
27 - (5 × x) = 27 - 5x
The amount they'll have altogether will be the addition of their amount left. This will be:
15 - 3x + 27 - 5x
= 15 + 27 - 3x - 5x
= 42 - 8x
