Option D [] in the list of possible answers
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem you are supposed to use a calculator that allows you to do an exponential regression. There are many tools that can help you with that, depending on what your instructors has assigned for your class.
I am showing you the results of a graphing tool I use, and which after entering the x-values and the y-values in independent "List" forms, when I request the exponential regression to fit the data, I get what you can see in the attached image.
Notice that the exponential of best fit with my calculator comes in the form:
with optimized parameters:
Notice as well that since:
the exponential best fit can also be written:
and this expression is very close to the last option shown in your list of possible answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the Physics book costs $x
The Chemistry book will cost $x - $6
Two such Chemistry books will cost;
2($x - $6) = $(2x - 12)
Three such Physics books cost $3x
$(2x - 12) + $3x = $123
$5x - $12 = $123
$5x = $111
x = $22
So the Physics book costs; $22
and the Chemistry book costs $22 - 6 = $16
