Gina has borrowed 100 songs from her friend. She plans to download an equal number of songs on her music player each week for 5

weeks. The graph shows the number of songs left to download, y, for a certain number of weeks, x:

Answer:

A. initial value = 100 (total amount of songs to download)

rate of change = -20 songs/week

B. y = -20x + 100

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The initial value of the function represented by the graph is its y-intercept point, that is, the value at which the function intercepts y-axis. In this case, this value is 100 songs. It represents the number of songs left before start to download them.

The rate of change is computed at follows:

[f(x2) - f(x1)]/(x2 - x1)

where (x1, f(x1)) and (x2, f(x2)) are two points on the line. Using (0, 100) and (1, 80), we get:

rate of change (80 - 100)/(1 - 0) = -20

This means that each week there are 20 songs less than the previous week.

B. In general terms, the slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope (which coincides with the rate of change), and b is the y-intercept (or initial value). Replacing with the results of part A:

y = -20x + 100

Answer:

y = -20x + 100

Step-by-step explanation:

As per your requirement For Part B, the solution is

The equation in slope-intercept form to model the relations is below:-

To reach 2 points on the graph the line passes through

lets use p1(0, 100), p2(1, 80)

now we will compute the slope:

= -20

and now use line equation in form point-slope:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 100 = -20(x - 0)

y = -20x + 100

What is the value of b in the equation (y Superscript b Baseline) Superscript 4 Baseline = StartFraction 1 Over y Superscript 24
shusha [124]

The value of b is -6.

Explanation:

The expression is \left(y^{b}\right)^{4}=\frac{1}{y^{24}}

To determine the value of b, we shall solve the expression.

Applying exponent rule, \left(a^{b}\right)^{c}=a^{b c}, we get,

y^{4b}=\frac{1}{y^{24}}

Applying exponent rule, \frac{1}{a^{b}}=a^{-b}, we have,

y^{4b}=y^{-24}

The expression is of the form, a^{f(x)}=a^{g(x)} then f(x)=g(x)

Applying this rule, we get,

4b=-24

Dividing both sides by 4, we have,

b=-6

Hence, the value of b is -6.

Find the inverse of the following function​
KatRina [158]

f-¹(x)=\frac{2-7x}{x+2}

Answer:

Solution given:

f(x)=\frac{-2x+2}{x+7}

Let f(x)=y

y=\frac{-2x+2}{x+7}

Interchanging role of x and y

x=\frac{-2y+2}{y+7}

doing crisscrossed multiplication

x(y+7)=-2y+2

now solve it:

xy+7x=-2y+2

keep like terms in one side

xy+2y=2-7x

take common

y(x+2)=2-7x

make a value of y

y=\frac{2-7x}{x+2}

So,

f-¹(x)=\frac{2-7x}{x+2}

Find the fifth term in the geometric
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

<h2>          a₅ = 162</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term in the geometric sequence:  a_n=a_1\cdt r^{n-1}

a₁ = 2  and  r = 3

So:

    a_5=a_1\cdot r^4=2\cdot3^4 = 2\cdot81=162
