This problem can be represented in a formula with fractions. To make it more simple, we are converting 5m30s to just pure seconds, which = 154 copies in 330 seconds.
You set up the formula like this: 154/330 = x/60. (it is x/60 because you want to know the x amount of copies per 60 seconds)
Cross multiply, you get 330x = 9240. Divide both sides by 330, you get:
x = 28 copies.
The final answer is 28 copies per minute
Answer:
The first choice is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
$32.00 x 15% = 4.80. 32.00-4.80=27.20. Another way to work it is the first choice, subtracting 15% from 100% and then multiplying 85% by $32.00. Same answer
The is Answer: 202 because I answered it
To solve this we are going to use the exponential function:

where

is the final amount after

years

is the initial amount

is the decay or grow rate rate in decimal form

is the time in years
Expression A

Since the base (0.95) is less than one, we have a decay rate here.
Now to find the rate

, we are going to use the formula:

*100%

*100%

*100%

5%
We can conclude that expression A decays at a rate of 5% every three months.
Now, to find the initial value of the function, we are going to evaluate the function at






We can conclude that the initial value of expression A is 624.
Expression B

Since the base (1.12) is greater than 1, we have a growth rate here.
To find the rate, we are going to use the same equation as before:

*100%

*100

*100%

*100%

12%
We can conclude that expression B grows at a rate of 12% every 4 months.
Just like before, to find the initial value of the expression, we are going to evaluate it at






The initial value of expression B is 725.
We can conclude that you should select the statements:
- Expression A decays at a rate of 5% every three months, while expression B grows at a rate of 12% every fourth months.
- Expression A has an initial value of 624, while expression B has an initial value of 725.
