b) 2012, 1049 stores. 2014, 1041 stores. c) Yes it is a downsizing company.
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
s=year | f(s) = number of stores per year
1 | 1078
4| 1067

s=1 in 2003

b) For 2012, s=9. For 2014, s=11

c) In deed. Since the function shows a decreasing amount of JC Penney stores. Maybe this is a downsizing from this company, progressively closing some stores.
The answer is 14 because you just have to pick a number to work with so it is 14.
Answer:
B. 30
Step-by-step explanation:
2m^2 + 12
m = 3
2(3)^2 + 12
3 squared is 9
2(9) + 12
2 times 9 is 18
18 + 12 = 30
2m^2 + 12 = 30
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion:
15kg/5 hrs = 18kg/x hrs
Cross multiply:
5(18)=15x
90 = 15x
Divide by 15:
90/15 = x
6 = x
I don't know if this is right for sure but I think that it's 81.25%.
