Answer:

math = 87

physics = 168

<em>Brainliest, please!</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Variables:

m = math, p = physics

Equations:

m + p = 255

m = p - 81

Substitution:

m + p = 255

(p - 81) + p = 255

2p - 81 = 255

2p = 336

p = 168

Solving for m:

m + p = 255

m + 168 = 255

m = 255 - 168

m = 87

Checking with the other equation:

m = p - 81

87 = 168 - 81

87 = 87

So, math = 87 and physics = 168

Consider the exponential function f(x) = 2(3x) and its graph.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The initial value of the function is <u>2</u>

The base of the function is <u>3</u>

The function shows exponential <u>growth</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(3^x)

Exponential functions are those with the following equation:

y = a*b^x

where a ≠ 0, b > 0 and b ≠ 1 and x is a real number.

<em>a</em> is the y-intercept and <em>b </em>is the base.

The initial value of the function is the same as the y-intercept

If <em>a</em> is positive, the function growth. If <em>a</em> is negative, the function decay

Kiran scored 36 baskets in 1 week. She scored 1/2 of the baskets on the weekend. She scored 1/4 of them on Tuesday, she scored 1
notka56 [123]

Answer:

6 baskets did Kiran score on Thursday

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

Kiran scored 36 baskets in 1 week.

On weekend she scored = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 36 = 18 baskets.

She scored 1/4 of them on Tuesday

⇒On Tuesday she scored = \frac{1}{4} \cdot 36 = 9 baskets

She scored 1/12 of them on Wednesday

⇒On Wednesday she scored = \frac{1}{12} \cdot 36 = 3 baskets.

Then;

She scored = On Weekend + On Tuesday + On Wednesday = 18+9+3 = 30 baskets.

Rest on Thursday she scored = 36 - 30 = 6 baskets.

Therefore, 6 baskets did Kiran score on Thursday
