For Wyatt's recipe the rate is:
r1 = 3.15 / 9
r1 = 0.35
For Cora's recipe the rate is:
r2 = 2.4 / 8
r2 = 0.3
The difference between both recipes is:
r1-r2 = 0.35 - 0.3 = 0.05
Answer:
0.05 cups of flour per shortcake less is needed for Cora's recipe
2x+8y=20;y=2
2x+8(2)=20
2x+16=20
-16 -16
-------------------
2x=4
x=2
The coordinate will be (2,2)! Hope that was helpful :)
Answer:
P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can me modelled with an exponencial formula:
P = Po * (1+r)^t
Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate and t is the amount of time.
In this problem, we have that the inicial population/value is 27000, the rate is -8/9 (negative because the population decays), and the time t is in months, so as the rate is for every 4 months, we use the value (t/4) in the exponencial.
So, our function will be:
P(t) = 27000 * (1-8/9)^(t/4)
P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)
