Step-by-step answer:
The base of the exponential function is 1.29 for 7 days, as in
f(x) = 86*(1.29)^x
The new rate for days can be calculated by dividing x by 7 (where x remains the number of weeks), namely
f(x) = 86*1.29^(x/7)
Using the law of exponents, b^(x/a) = b^(x*(1/a)) = (b^(1/a))^x
we simplify by putting b=1.29, a=7 to get
f(x) = 86*(1.29^(1/7))^x
f(x) = 86*(1.037)^x since 1.29^(1/7) evaluates to 1.037
Rounding 1.037 to 1.04 we get a (VERY) approximate function
f(x) = 86 * (1.04^x)
1.04 is very approximate because 1.04^7 is supposed to get back 1.29, but it is actually 1.316, while 1.037^7 gives 1.2896, much closer to 1.29.
The measure of angle 7 is 61 degrees by the Alternate interior angles theorem.
The alternate interior angles theorem states that, the alternate interior angles are congruent when the transversal intersects two parallel lines. Hence, it is proved. Alternate interior angles can be calculated by using properties of the parallel lines.
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
Expanding the limit, we get (x^2+2x∆x+∆x^2-2x-2∆x+1-x^2+2x-1)/<span>∆x
Crossing the 1s , the 2xs, and the x^2s out, we get
(2x</span>∆x+∆x^2-2∆x)/<span>∆x
Dividing the </span><span>∆x, we get
2x+</span><span>∆x-2.
Making the limit of </span><span>∆x=0, we get 2x-2.</span>
