Answer:
The monthly growth rate is 3.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential growth function is given as follows:
Here,
<em>y</em> = final value
<em>a</em> = initial value
<em>r</em> = growth rate
<em>x</em> = time taken
The provided expression for the monthly growth of membership in the new drama club at a school is:
Comparing this function with the exponential growth function:
Then value of <em>r</em> is 0.035 or 3.5%.
Thus, the monthly growth rate is 3.5%.
Answer:
y + 13 = 5(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is
y = mx + b,
where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.
From the slope-intercept equation y = 5x - 3, we see that the slope of the line is 3.
The point-slope form of the equation of a line is:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where m = slope, and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.
We have point (-2, -13), so x1 = -2, and y1 = -13.
We also have slope 5, so m = 5.
Now we use the coordinates of the given point and the slope in the point-slope equation.
y - (-13) = 5(x - (-2))
We simplify to get
y + 13 = 5(x + 2)
1st question
$23,760-(4000+6000)=$13,760
$13,760 x 4%=$ 550.40
2nd question
$43,300-(2000+2000)= $39,300
$39,300 x 5%= $1,965
Now if we have 7.5 pounds of apples first we need to convert 1 pound into ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces.
Now we know how many ounces are in one pound. So lets take the 16 ounces for 1 pound and multiply by the 7 full pounds of apples. This excluding the 1/2 pound of apples.
7 x 16 = 112
(7 being the weight in pounds of the apples, 16 being 16 ounces in one pound, and 112 is how any ounces are in 7 pounds of apples.)
So now we have the amount of ounces in 7 pounds of apples.
But we are not done. We still have the 1/2 pound of apples. So we take 16 being 1 pound of apples and divide it by 2.
16 divided by 2 = 8
That 1/2 pound of apples = 8 ounces.
So now we have our 7 pounds of apples in ounces (112) and our 1/2 pound of apples in ounces (8)
So we add these back up in ounces
112 + 8 = 120.
So now we can conclude:
7.5 pounds of apples is 120 ounces
Hope this helps!
