Bc u dont write ur work down. If u actually take the steps to do the question it wont be that bad
Suppose that the exponential growth function is y = 4^x.
If x = 1, then y = 4^1 = 4.
If x = 3, then y = 4^3 = 64.
Let the initial value be 1/2.
The growth function is now y = 1/2 * 4^x.
If x =1, then y = 2 which is half of the y value before adding the 1/2.
If x = 3, then y = 1/2 * 64 = 32.
Answer: 1/2
You distribute the negative in the second equation
Answer:
1.8 minutes or 108 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The question tells us that the larger belt moves 300 lbs in 2 mins. And this is equal to 150 lb per minute
The question also tells us that a smaller belt moves the same quantity of 300 lbs in 18 mins. And this is equal to an average of 16.667 lb per min.
Both belts will move at a rate of 166.667 lb per min.
So it will take them 300 / 166.667 = 1.8 min or 108 s.
Therefore, the answer is 1.8 min
