Answer:
Option d. the initial amount of money placed in the savings account
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
This is a exponential function of the form
where
a is the initial value
r is the growth rate
(1+r) is the base
x is the number of years
f(x) is the amount of money in a savings account
In this problem we have
a=$3,005
r=0.03=3%
(1+r)=1.03
therefore
3,005 represent the initial value ( the amount of money for the value of x equal to zero)
Answer:
27,0 the distance away from the school
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the formula for equation of a straight line;
y=mx+c where c is the y intercept , and m is the gradient
From the graph, the slope is negative where speed decreases with increase in time
Find the gradient by applying the formula;
Taking y₁=24, y₂=20, x₁=9, x₂=12
Then;
write the equation of the function as ;
y=mx+c, c=36( the y-intercept when x=0) hence the equation is;
To get x-intercept, substitute value of y with 0
This means that the x-intercept is 27 ,and this means you will require 27 minutes to cover the whole distance to the school.
