(1/2,3)(2,3/4)
slope = (3/4 - 3) / (2 - 1/2) = (3/4 - 12/4) / (4/2 - 1/2) =
(-9/4) / (3/2) = -9/4 * 2/3 = -18/12 = -3/2
Answer:
common ratio: 1.155
rate of growth: 15.5 %
Step-by-step explanation:
The model for exponential growth of population P looks like: 
where
is the population at time "t",
is the initial (starting) population
is the common ratio,
and
is the rate of growth
Therefore, in our case we can replace specific values in this expression (including population after 12 years, and initial population), and solve for the unknown common ratio and its related rate of growth:
![P(t)=P_i(1+r)^t\\13000=2300*(1+r)^{12}\\\frac{13000}{2300} = (1+r)^12\\\frac{130}{23} = (1+r)^{12}\\1+r=\sqrt[12]{\frac{130}{23} } =1.155273\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28t%29%3DP_i%281%2Br%29%5Et%5C%5C13000%3D2300%2A%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B13000%7D%7B2300%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E12%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C1%2Br%3D%5Csqrt%5B12%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%7D%20%3D1.155273%5C%5C)
This (1+r) is the common ratio, that we are asked to round to the nearest thousandth, so we use: 1.155
We are also asked to find the rate of increase (r), and to express it in percent form. Therefore we use the last equation shown above to solve for "r" and express tin percent form:

So, this number in percent form (and rounded to the nearest tenth as requested) is: 15.5 %
A trinomial is a polynomial with three terms. It can be determined if it is a difference of two squares when you factor it.
The resulting factor of a trinomial that is a difference of two squares is: a²<span> – b</span>²<span> = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b)</span>
You will notice that the middle term is missing. This means that the middle term zeroes out as a result of having the same number of different signs (+ and -)
Answer:
The answer to your question is y = -2x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
A (1, 9)
B (3, 5)
- Find the slope



m = - 2
- Find the line equation
y - y1 = m (x - x1)
y - 5 = -2(x - 3)
y - 5 = -2x + 6
y = -2x + 6 + 5
y = -2x + 11
